Resistance Bands vs Free Weights - MyTrainerFitness.Com

Resistance Band Tips (Healthy Lifestyle)
  • Choose the correct band for the level of resistance that suits your workouts.  Often determined by color, that can be manufacturer-specific, so a general rule of thumb:  thinner bands for less resistance, thicker for more.
  • Warm up just as you would before any weight training exercises.
  • Purchase high-quality bands with good handles that won’t wear quickly and replace when they start to thin and lose elasticity.
  • If anything feels too easy, try using a heavier band with more tension.
  • If too hard, select a thinner band.
  • Be careful…a pop from a slipped band can smart!
