Setting Up Dopa Band
How to attach a Dopa Band everywhere
Before attaching Dopa, consider:
- The recommended height for the anchor point should be at waist level, where you do most exercises.
- Do not attach a Dopa band to a sharp-edged object.
- Ensure both sides are even.
To connect your Dopa, it’s crucial to know the tying method. The same method applies for attaching Dopa to posts, trees, and doors. Watch the video to learn how
Here’s a written explanation for your convenience:
- Create a loop by folding the Dopa in half.
- Wrap the looped side around and through the anchor point.
- Thread the free end through the loop you made.
- Make sure the sides are even. If not, the weight distribution will be uneven.
- Fix an uneven side before tightening.
- To secure the Dopa, tighten it to the anchor point.
Here are some instances of the tying method performed in various location:
Dopa Training Fundamentals
Learn the basic principles of Dopa training
- Don’t stop between repetitions like people do at the gym. Dopa offers a functional approach to improving your physical fitness. Instead, maintain a consistent workout rhythm.
- Don’t isolate muscles; engage your entire body to generate force in every movement, rather than isolating specific muscles. If your aim is to increase muscle mass, focus on specific muscle groups.
- Don’t stop the workout, even when you feel like you can’t go on anymore. Instead, try reducing the resistance by moving closer to the anchor point. That’s how we significantly improve strength and endurance.
- Dynamic resistance adjustment: While exercising, if you feel pulling Dopa is too easy, move farther away from the anchor point to create more resistance. If you feel that it is too hard, get closer to the anchor point.

Mastering Any Technique
Learn how to use Dopa to improve and maximize your technique.
2) Enhance your technique with the Dopa Band: regardless of the sport you’re involved in, the Dopa Band is a great tool to help you practice your technique and build strength to the fullest.
A) Choose the techniques you wish to enhance; B) Discover how to execute them with Dopa C) Practice to perfection.
We have a technique section where we provide a detailed breakdown video of different techniques from various spots, with more to come in the future. If you can’t find the necessary technique there, no worries; it’s incredibly easy to use Dopa to simulate any technique. How? Try to visualize the technique, then do it with Dopa.
For instance, if you practice Jiu-jitsu, choose grappling techniques from Dopamineo+ and start practicing them after practice, at home or outdoors.
To practice freestyle stroke swimming: you need to alternate full-circle stroke motions with your Dopa Band. Watch an example on video.
To improve your boxing uppercut technique, try visualizing the motion first, then grab Dopa and do the same motion with it. Watch an example on video.
As simple as that.
Maintenance and Safety
With the right care, Dopa will last forever.
Our laboratory experiments show minimal or negligible wear with our 99% silicone compound. We have bands over 5 years old that show no signs of deterioration.
How can you take care of your Dopa Band to extend its life and keep its shape?
The most crucial step in preventing your Dopa from snapping is to correctly attach it using our recommended tying method. The second most crucial step is not to attach Dopa to sharp-edged objects. Lastly, do not leave the band out in the sun for a long period of time.
That will ensure that the band won’t snap now or ever.
Watch the tying method on video.
How do I clean the Dopa band?
Dopa is water-resistant; feel free to wash it under the water. We don’t recommend scratching it with a rough surface, but instead with a smooth surface or simply with your hand.
Don’t wash it in the washing machine. End.
