Aletha | The Band

Aletha The Band

Aletha The Band is a hip resistance band, a single closed loop that goes around your legs and supplies 30 to 50 lb of resistance depending on how far it is stretched. There is no buckle, no clip and no level to select, so the stretch is the only thing that moves the figure inside that span. Woven rubber with a non-slip grip holds the loop in place while you work through a set. Release work only holds when the muscles around it are strong enough to maintain it. The Band is the strengthening step that follows, for the hips, the glutes and the core.

Every exercise in the printed guide is part of a PT-approved sequence. Try each movement without the loop first to get comfortable with the motion, then add the Band for more resistance. Stop if an exercise causes or increases pain.

The loop

How it works

The loop itself is the only moving part. Taking it further from its resting length raises the resistance, and the exercise you choose decides how far it goes.

Thirty to Fifty Pounds Comes From the Stretch
The resistance depends on how far the loop has been taken from its resting length. One loop covers the whole span, and the exercise you choose moves you through it. The same figure holds for every exercise in the guide, on the floor and standing.
Set by the stretch
A Closed Loop With Nothing to Fasten
The Band is one continuous loop that closes on itself, with no loose end to tie off. Once it is on, it stays a ring around your legs for every exercise in the set. With nothing to fasten, nothing works loose in the middle of a set, and it goes flat into a bag when you are finished.
One continuous loop
A Loop Across Four Body Positions
The loop goes around your legs and the body position does the rest. Lying on your side with the knees bent, opening the top knee against the loop is a clam shell, and lifting the leg out to the side from hands and knees is a fire hydrant. On your back with both feet planted, the same loop loads a glute bridge or a hamstring bridge as the hips travel up. Standing, it loads squats and the sideways steps of a band walk, where both feet push outward to keep the loop extended.
Around both legs
A Printed Exercise Guide Arrives in the Box
A printed exercise guide ships with the Band and demonstrates the set with the loop in place. The schedule that goes with the guide is three sessions a week or more, and each exercise runs as repetitions with the loop held under extension. Every exercise in the set works with just you and the loop.

Using the Band

How to use it

Placement

Where the Loop Sits While You Move

You put the Band on by stepping into it or drawing it up over both feet, and it stays a closed ring around your legs for the whole set. The non-slip face holds it where you put it while the legs are moving underneath. Different exercises want the loop in different places along the leg, and moving it means sliding the ring, since there is nothing to unfasten and nothing to re-thread. The Band comes off between exercises only when the next one calls for a different placement.

  • The loop goes around your legs and closes on itself
  • The non-slip face holds the loop through a full set
  • Step in or draw it up over both feet
  • Stretch decides where you land in the span

The set

From Clam Shells to Standing Band Walks

The exercise set runs across three body positions and one placement. Side lying gives you clam shells and hip pulses, where the top knee opens against the loop while the feet stay together. Hands and knees gives you fire hydrants and glute kickbacks, one leg at a time, with the loop around both legs. On your back, glute bridges and hamstring bridges drive the hips up with the knees pressing out. Standing and on your hands, squats, planks and band walks keep both feet pushing outward so the loop never goes slack.

For a clam shell, bend the knees to about 90 degrees and lift the top knee; the legs should not open wider than the length of your hand. Squats start with the heels about shoulder-width apart and the knees behind the toes, and a goblet dumbbell or kettlebell takes them further. Hamstring bridges start with the legs nearly straight and the heels on the ground, pressing through the heels, and feet on a bench makes them harder. Glute kickbacks keep the body still while only the leg moves, and a plank holds the core up without letting it drop toward the floor.

  • Clam shells and hip pulses are done lying on your side
  • Fire hydrants and glute kickbacks work from hands and knees
  • Glute bridges and hamstring bridges are done on your back
  • Squats, planks and band walks keep both feet pressing outward

Aletha Band Questions

Frequently asked questions

30 to 50 lb, depending on how far the loop is stretched. One loop covers that span, and the exercise you choose decides where you land in it, on the floor and standing.
Step into the loop or draw it up over both feet, then settle it around your legs. It is one closed ring with no buckle and no clip, and the non-slip face holds it where you put it while you work. Nothing needs anchoring, threading or tying off.
A printed exercise guide ships in the box and demonstrates the set with the loop in place. The exercises are clam shells, glute bridges, hip pulses, planks, squats, hamstring bridges, glute kickbacks, fire hydrants and band walks. Sumo squats and side planks with hip abduction use the loop too.
No. The Mark and the Orbit are shapes held in one spot for 90 seconds under your own body weight, and the Band has no point on it and no hold. Its work happens over repetitions while the legs are moving, with the force coming back out of the loop as it extends.
Three sessions a week or more, run as repetitions rather than as a timed hold. The exercises run across side lying, hands and knees, lying on your back and standing.
Do not use it if you have a latex allergy or an allergy to the materials. A bleeding disorder, blood-thinning medication, hypertension, diabetes, cancer, vascular disease or vascular insufficiency, a pacemaker, osteoporosis, a recent operation or a skin condition in the area each rule out use as well. Check with your doctor before use; the Band is for adults 18 and over.
Aletha backs it with a 365-day warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. The cover runs from the date of purchase for the original purchaser. It does not cover alteration, misuse, abuse, accidents, neglect, excess moisture, fire, improper shipping, power surges or acts of nature.
Yes. All four tools ship together in the Aletha Full Body System, along with a printed guidebook. The Mark, the Orbit and the Range are held still under pressure, and the Band is the one you take through repetitions.
The Band itself, in black, and a printed exercise guide. The loop arrives ready to use, with nothing to assemble, no attachment to fit and no second size to pick between.
