Did anyone use these bands for the bun &amp; thigh rocker?

Nope. My 80 year old grandfather has been breaking Body by Jake bands for 20 years. He can no longer find them @ Sears.

Just a guess: I think they're used as the company's signature reminder that the product improves the elasticity and tightness of the face. I'm just making that up tho, so you might want to ask the company. Meanwhile, I've found these rubber bands useful from time to time.

I am not at home to measure. However, these bands are not as long as the BeachBody p90x bands. They are actually kind of short in relation to other bands I have seen. I have had no issues though with the fact that they are shorts. I could only see it being an issue if you were standing on the band and doing tricep presses, the length may be an issue there.

I bought 2 sets of these bands for 2 of my nieces, they loved them. They have had no problems what's so ever. The cost of these bands in the stores it's outrageous, I really got my money's worth. It is a good purchase.

I bought some individual ones at Dollar Tree, and the package said EACH band works up to 200 hours. These bands are the same brand, just different packaging and look like round plastic "slinkeys." Stretch to fit.

The bands have an inside diameter of between 1 1/2 to 1 7/8 inch so they're too big for your rolling pin. If you're willing to invest in a new rolling pin I'd recommend a 2 inch diameter one for these bands.

I don't think it's a good use of them, but you could. They are really thick so they're not as stretchy as a rubber band.

No not really. According to my grand-daughter, some bands may be already broken, but.. the bands do not break when you are using them.

Yes they will. There is a better brand at Dick's Sporting goods. They have plastic handles that can hold up to three bands and 10 colors of bands from 10 to100 lbs..

I do not know the answer to these two questions and have often wondered myself why the bands are there. Fortunately mine have never broken and I have just left them alone. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

If you are measuring the width of the rolling pin from top to bottom, yes these bands will stretch & fit great. I hav 3 different sized rolling pins. The bands will not fit less than 2" rolling pins, but will generously stretch to fit larger ones. They are great!

I got mine recently and they are soooo much better than the flimsy bands I've seen at sporting goods stores or with DVDs! My friends and I love them.

Yes they do. They are snug but once you find the technique you can slide them quickly. I even have a triple album it is super tight bit I got it on. I have been very happy with them.

I, too, have trouble with the bands. I think I need to lower my evaluation stars on the product. Not only do the bands come off, they split. I'm sorry I can't help you.

Howdy- the bands are latex and will be slippery in the water. However, they should work fine.

There are lighter resistance, more flexible bands in the set which would be good. However, I am not sure that you would need or want the entire set and purchasing some individual bands may be more helpful. Also, the set I got had metal carabiner rings to which you attached and detached a handle depending on desired resistance. That might be problematic. It would likely be better to get a single or even a set that has fixed handles for ease of use/transition between resistances. Stay active!

I wouldn't use them--they'll fall apart too quickly. Get some of the clear hairbands instead. They're about the same size and are made to stretch repeatedly.
