UMD: Strength exercisers designed to provide elastic resistance to muscular contraction for developing muscular strength and endurance. These exercisers typically consist of an elastic material such as a flexible (e.g., rubber) band or tube or a coiled metal spring; the elastic resistance increases as the elastic element is stretched. Elastic resistance exercisers are usually portable, but they can also be built as exercise machines. They can be used in strength exercises such as the chest press, leg press, shoulder raise, torso twist, and squat. Elastic resistance strength exercisers are intended to improve the strength of the muscles in the upper body/torso and lower body and the flexibility of the muscles and the joints by stretching the muscles.
