Coaches How to Tie Theraband

[BeamPrincess]

I need help please - what is the best way to tie theraband for girls to use around the ankles to active flex work????

I have tried multiple ways and they usually snap before too long or constantly come undone. If anyone can please tell me how it would be great.

Thanks in advance.

I definitely have the same problem, recently I have been duck taping the knot to keep it, its worked so far.

BP; I either have the gymnast tie a Bowline or a Double Figure Eight. See here; http://www.realknots.com/knots/sloops.htm . I have a pic of the knots taped to my theta-band box. The athletes learn to tie the knot. A couple of our staff use square knots and they seem to work, mostly.

I learned the knots in my Boy Scout training. Once an Eagle Scout, always an Eagle Scout. The Boy Scout Law - Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean and Reverent.

Be prepared, SBG -
