Summary

DICK'S Sporting Goods is recalling about 207,500 Fitness Gear resistance tubes sold individually and in multi-tube kits. These latex tubes were available in blue, gray, green, orange, purple, and red with gray handles, ranging from 5 to 30 pounds of resistance. The firm has received 12 reports of the tubes breaking, leading to three people being struck or falling. Consumers should stop using these tubes immediately and return them to a DICK'S Sporting Goods store for a full refund or store credit.

Risk

The resistance tubes can unexpectedly break or snap while in use, which can cause the tube to strike the user or cause them to lose their balance and fall.

What You Should Do

  2. Check the black strap between the gray handle and the colored latex tube; the resistance level (e.g., 5 LBS, 10 LBS) is marked there.
