Resistance Band Exercises

Incorporating resistance band exercises into your workout routine can be quite simple. Bodylastics has recently created an easy and effective home gym system using these elastic bands, which are also called resistance or exercise bands.

Read below for features of this system.

Features include: Maximum resistance for very strong individuals, 31 levels of resistance from 5 to over 65 lbs per side, top quality, unprecedented lifetime warranty.  Also included is a 30 minute circuit training video or DVD for body toning and weight loss.

Bodylastics utilizes one of the smoothest sources of resistance in their ultra smooth exercise bands. Good for toning, firming, building power, strength and stamina, these elastic bands can be attached and detached on or off the handles and ankle straps, creating 31 levels of resistance. 

These bands come with a door anchor which increases their versatility and allows the most effective and popular gym exercises to be recreated almost anywhere. Work your arms, legs, back, chest, shoulders and stomach, quickly and easily.

The complete system includes 1 yellow band (light resistance), 1 green band (medium resistance), 1 red band (light heavy resistance), 1 blue band (heavy resistance), 1 black band (extra heavy resistance), 2 extra wide foam covered handles, 2 ankle straps, 1 door anchor, 1 user manual (Complete instructions), 1 bag, 1 Circuit Training Video OR DVD.

Customers who have used these elastic bands are raving about their quality and effectiveness. Their comments reveal that the maximum tension can go up to about 70 pounds of resistance and the basic tension can go up to about 43 pounds of resistance. They also claim the lightest resistances are easy enough for a complete beginner or someone in very bad shape.

Inexpensive, lightweight, and small, the elastic bands are cheaper to buy than anything else that will give this kind of workout. The bands come in a very small bag that is easy to store and can be packed in a suitcase or carry-on for travel.  In addition, these bands have been touted as being much better, more durable, and more challenging than the cheap exercise bands you normally find in stores.
