When it comes to diversifying your workouts, resistance bands are the perfect addition to your fitness routine. Not only are exercise bands versatile, but they are also convenient to carry around your gym bag and wherever your workout takes you.
While dumbbells and other classic gym equipment make for great training sessions, resistance bands offer different benefits that can be enjoyed even from the comfort of a hotel room - amongst many other amazing perks.
The Many Upsides of Resistance Bands
Resistance bands have gained popularity over the last few years, becoming a training staple for many gym goers for their efficiency in workouts and many other benefits.
Super portable, these bands can be easily used at home, the gym, and even on your getaway weekend or holiday - making it that much easier to keep up with your exercise routine regardless of your location.
Full-Body Workouts
Resistance bands also offer a wide range of workouts that can target a variety of muscle groups. From strength training and flexibility exercises to rehabilitation and enforced cardio sessions - resistance bands can be adjusted to both the kind of workout you love and your personal fitness level, too!
Whether you are a beginner in the fitness world or a lifting pro, you can definitely find a way to break a sweat using our bands. Get your heart rate up, wherever you are!
How do Resistance Bands Work?
More specifically, resistance bands engage your muscles by providing continuous tension as you move your body throughout your exercises.
This unique approach helps to both activate and strengthen the stabiliser muscles in the body, which are responsible for things like joint stability and proper alignment. Long story short, bands are a great way of improving functional strength and staying healthy!
Low-Impact & Low-Injury
The benefits don’t end there - resistance bands are also great for providing low-impact workout options that put less stress on your joints (especially when compared to other forms of exercise).
By allowing for more gradual, controlled movements, fitness bands actively reduce the risk of injury of their users. If you are recovering from an already-existing injury, these bands are also a great way to ease back into your workout routine without taking any risks!
Affordable
Gym equipment can be unsurprisingly expensive, and resistance bands offer yet another solution to this issue. Rather than having to invest in pricey tools, you can instead opt to go with affordable resistance bands that are known to show real results without breaking the bank.
