Product Information

The versatility of resistance bands means you can control the angle you train at, making them 'great for targeting small muscle groups,' says Lankester. There's no doubt that resistance bands work for muscular gain, but there is new evidence that they could even facilitate weight loss.

Resistance bands are versatile workout accessories that you can use for a wide range of gym movements whether you’re at home or on the go. Discontinue your practice if you experience any pain or discomfort, especially if you’re healing from an injury. When training with resistance bands there are two primary types of movements - unanchored exercises , meaning you anchor one end of the band with your own body, and the other are anchored exercises , where you attach one end of the band to an anchor point.In addition to five bands of increasing resistances (which can be used in combination to provide up to a claimed 96 pounds), the set includes a door anchor for creating points at various heights to pull or press against, two grippy handles, and two padded ankle straps. We considered 24 sets of bands and tested 12, and found that the Bodylastics Stackable Tube Resistance Bands are the best—and should be the safest—traditional tube-and-handle bands.

To use the door anchor, you just thread the resistance band through the loop and then wedge the anchor into the door frame (by closing the door) at whichever height you desire. Resistance bands exercises might look tame on the surface, but they can add serious value to your strength workouts.

The handles feature non-slip grip material and come with metal carabiners to attach to the door anchor.

Most exercises provide resistance when attached to a suitable anchor point such as the frame of heavy gym equipment or an outdoor pole. Why: 'This is a great isolation movement for the hamstrings, which is very similar to a lying hamstring machine curl,' says Miljak.
