I'm not too worried about it being 100% accurate. A general representation/estimation would be fine. It's only to track progression in load for training purposes as opposed to absolute values.
Ah OK. So, based on the below diagram:
Imagining that I am holding the band with my right hand at the red dot (or indeed even stepping on the band with a foot), and pulling with my left, the force the band exerts at each point that I pull along the band (green dots) can be worked out using...
Hi all!
I hope I'm posting in the correct section! I’m trying to work out the force required to stretch resistance training bands for two particular set ups shown in the pictures. I’m not a physics student or anything like that (I'm many years out of school!), however I am pretty good at maths...
