Resistance bands

Does anyone use resistance bands for stretching or for any kind of glute/hamstring stretches or exercises? I’d like to give them a try more so for stretching ( I know they aren’t optimal for stretching) but it’s something I’d like to try. Does any one have any recommendations or can explain the different sizes, resistance etc and how to know which ones to pick?
TIA

There are so many types of resistance bands, so I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I have an adjustable loop band which is my favorite one to use. You can grab different loops while you're using it to make it more or less challenging. I've had it for about a year and a half and it still works great - hasn't lost elasticity. Here's a link to it, although I'm sure there are others available just like it: https://shop.walkathome.com/collections/walk-boosters-accessories/products/miracle-miles-band-single
