I was first introduced to elastic bands in college when I hurt my ankle on the football field. The training staff had me use the elastic bands on my ankle. I felt as if I wasn't doing much, but it did help. I have never had one break on me, but I can imagine that after a lot of use they will eventually lose their elasticity.

You can tell when they are on their last legs as they start to lose their colour and lose their elasticity, with slight tears at the end that is attached regularly. I know that the bands of an unnamed company are tested for 10,000 reps so they are highly durable. Keep the bands out of direct sunlight, in a cold location, and out of the swimming pool as chlorine will devastate them. Hope this helps. @Data Babble
