Product Information

The band either comes in the traditional loop form or in 25 or 50 yard rolls, so you cut off different lengths for different exercises. The bands also come in different tension ranges from extra light for beginners to extra extra heavy for more experienced weight lifters. To do a front squat with your resistance band, stand on top of the middle of your resistance band. You will want your feet to be about a shoulder length apart. Hold the handles of the band, one in each hand, and bring them to the top of your shoulders. Then, squat down, letting the band contract. When you lift up from your squat, the band will expand with your movement, and add resistance to it. One of the great things about resistance bands is that they challenge you through the entire range of movement of an exercise. Peters explained, "By adding a band to a traditional movement, you can alter how hard your muscles are being challenged in certain positions. For example, in a traditional push-up — after you pass halfway up the movement starts to become easier. By adding a band, you can make the exercise harder as you pass halfway altering the traditional strength curve."

Once the body is fully developed, it starts losing around 1% of its strength each year, a statistic which goes for both bones and muscles. The best way to prevent this loss is to continue building bone and muscle density on a consistent basis, to make up for what is naturally lost. Once you lose weight, several studies have shown that you’ll also have an easier time keeping it off if you practice resistance training two or three times a week. They also let physical therapists choose highly specific levels of resistance for their patients. Users can start at very gentle levels, so as not to strain any injured muscles. These non loop resistance bands are available in three different colors and tensions - starting at 3lbs and going up to 4.6lbs.

Let's take for example a four-band resistor with the following band colors: Violet Green Yellow Gold It’s very difficult to use advanced weights without the help of a partner. If you need to practice strength training alone, resistance bands are a great choice. You can use them safely even when you advance to the higher levels, and you won’t need to constantly depend on your workout buddy. Not matter where you are with your body and your fitness routine, there is a resistance band out there that is right for you. This article will discuss what resistance bands are, how they benefit the body, and their many functionalities in the athletic world.

Bring your feet apart, with one in front of the other. Place the center of the band under your forward foot. Take one of the handles in each hand, keeping your palms facing inwards towards your body. Then, raise both handles at the same time, until your arms are spread out fully in both directions. Rather than the typical handles, a lateral resistance band has velcro cuffs on either end. These cuffs are typically wrapped around each ankle, to help train the lower body, particularly the hips and the thighs. The short loops are perfect for arm and glute movements and the five different tension ranges are great for the whole family, or to use for different workout moves. The bands are clearly marked with which tension they are, so you’ll never exercise with the wrong one, plus they also come with a small booklet for different exercises that you can perform with them.

If you are new to working out, or have had a long break, you could book a personal trainer to show you how to use resistance bands effectively. However, the best resistance bands should come with an instruction booklet to help you carry out the movements in each exercise with correct form.

Green resistance bands are stiff and unyielding. Like the purple resistance bands, you should use these only with large muscle groups, or after you have practiced with stretchier bands. One of the advantages of resistance bands is you can use them to add weight to popular exercises you may already be doing. When you add this level of resistance, you will see faster progress in building muscle tone.
