Product Information

Resistance bands are one of the most cost-effective ways to get a full workout. Many resistance bands are priced at less than 10 dollars. Even higher quality, more expensive bands are usually less than 30 dollars. You can get a full set of resistance bands for much less than you would pay for a weight machine, while still engaging in many of the same exercises. As we discussed in our section about physical therapy, few other tools can help you isolate target muscles the way that resistance bands do. If you have a particular focus, combine contractions with the right movement and see those muscles grow in no time. Many physical therapists use resistance training to help treat arthritis. The additional muscle mass provides better control over your hands and reduces pain levels.

For this exercise, start in a lying down position with your knees bent and your feet on the ground. Anchor your band at a position a short length away from you and above you, such as a bed frame leg. Take the band with a handle in each hand, and pull it slowly over your head and torso, so that the handles come close to your hips. Choose a pull up band. Pull up bands are extra long resistance bands that are often made to be one continuous loop. Like regular resistance bands, pull up bands are color coded based on the level of a resistance.

After a few bumps and bruises, a bunch of mistakes, a few ups and a lot of downs….I am blessed to say WODFitters is the realization of my dream." (Kat / Founder)

In a three-band resistor, the first two bands represent the first two significant digits followed by one band for the multiplier. Since no tolerance band is available, the tolerance will always be ±20%.

We then multiply that number by the multiplier indicated with the 3 rd band (yellow) which has the value of; x10 4 = 10000. Resistance training builds muscles and strengthens the overall density of the bone. This means that you are less likely to break or fracture something after a fall. Your bones will be stronger, and they will have more a protective cushion around them. You are also less likely to fall in the first place when you have stronger muscles. Since it is a four-band resistor, the first two bands (violet and green) will indicate the significant digits which are, according to the table above; 75. My dream was to help “every day” athletes to take their training to the next level to achieve their performance and body image goals. A ring resistance band consists of a small, single ring with two handles attached to either side of it. The handles are soft, rather than hard plastic. These types of bands are best for working the lower body, but they require different exercises than the fit loop band or the compact resistance band.

Stand in the center of your band, taking a handle in each hand. Wrap your fingers around each of the handles so that your palms are facing forward. Then, bring the handles up towards your chest in a curling motion. Your hands should come close to your shoulders each time.

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. Many athletes use resistance bands to build the specific muscles they need to strengthen for their sport. For example, a martial artist might use a band to improve their grip and upper arm strength, making chokes and holds much easier to maintain. A skier might use a resistance band in the off-season to build muscle in the calves and thighs, letting them carve through the snow at the perfect angle, once the season begins. Keeping your elbows pointed towards the floor, pull your chin towards the bar. The goal is to get your chin slightly above the bar.

Exercise bands are incredibly versatile and come in a variety of sizes, designs and resistance levels. Depending on what activities you intend on using your exercise bands for, you may want to consider the following. Mimic the power of weights by choosing the level of resistance, if you’re a beginner you may want to start with an exercise band with a lighter elastic band resistance or go for a set that you can pair and combine to tailor the level of resistance that suits you.If you already love the weights or machines you work with, you might feel a resistance band is unnecessary. However, adding variety is very helpful to your workout. Your muscles become accustomed to the same types of movements, and adapt accordingly, so adding elements of variety can help you make sure you’re still challenging them. 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. Purchasing a resistance band is a great choice for anyone looking to build muscle tone for almost any reason. It is a low-risk investment, since resistance bands are inexpensive and can be used anywhere.
