When force is applied to rubber, the elastic tension energy disrupts bonds, and changes the structure, as if heat is applied. Heat is actually absorbed by the rubber, as its elasticity increases, while undergoing the "stretch" deformation. When force is no longer applied, the streched rubber collapses, releasing heat, as the structure reverses form, to its starting molecular conformation.

Why rubber band is called solid?
All solids have definite shape, volume and distinct boundaries. A Rubber band too has a definite shape, volume and distinct boundaries. Only when some external force is applied, will it change its shape. After the force is withdrawn, due to its intermolecular force of attraction, it resumes its original shape and size. Moreover , As it doesn't flow from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration (like liquids and gases,) it has to be a solid.
What are rubber belts made of?
Rubber is made out of the sap of the rubber tree that is commonly found in the Amazon Rainforest.

Are the rubber gym mats suited for tumbling and stretches?
Rubber gym mats are suited for tumbling and stretching but very few are ninja proof. You could find yourself stretching your muscles and falling victim to an unsuspecting ninja attack.
How can you give a rubber band potential energy?
You can give the rubber band potential energy by stretching the rubber band, however if you let it go and it moves then it will no longer be potential energy.
