I was a bodybuilder, I lost 2 fingers in an accident my thumb and remaining fingers on that hand I can't bend due to how they were broken. Using bands I've actually started to gain strength back and recovered to the point I'm working like 50 hrs + a week . Between straps and different handles etc I think anyone can get a really hard workout in

This set comes with 5 bands of varying resistance, a storage bag, kzread.infoUgkxS7ex6L4sMqpaTn4LnBPyBmRQsSingL8y a small pamphlet with some sample exercises, and an access code for an online workout video. I haven't viewed the online video, so I cannot speak to the quality of that piece of the set. However, everything else is perfect for what I was looking for. The bands are durable, and the resistance strength varies enough between bands that they're each useful for different exercises and provide a great challenge as you gradually increase the resistance level for certain exercises. The only band I don't use very often is the lowest resistance band, but even that is nice for exercises that target weaker/seldom used muscle groups.

I need a wall chart with all exercises and muscle groups:)

Sell on Amazon QuickFit Resistance Loop Bands Workout Poster - Laminated - Exercise Chart for Resistance Band Loops - 18" x 27"

Up until around 35 I used weights a lot but nowadays I have many issues. Labrum tear ✅ frozen shoulder ✅ back fusions ✅ meniscus tear ✅ but I love my bands. Weights just didn’t work for me anymore but the bands have been a great addition. I turned to them after using them in physical therapy. They still build muscle and I use them for “functional strength” rather than forcing myself to stack on plates.

my heart bleeds when I read "functional strength"...if you try to get more functional for your everyday life you're never gonna encounter a situation where the resistance is way harder at the end of the concentric phase and zero at the beginning like it happens with bands they're easier on the body because they're...well easier than weights

If you looked at me you would have no clue I use bands to work out. Those same muscle fibers that were used with free-weights are used with bands, actually more are used since I don’t force the weight so my form is so much better. Now functional to me: being able to clear dead trees and brush from my wooded lot when needed (most times by use of an axe), shoveling (yes shoveling) a 100’ three car driveway from anywhere between 2”-12+” of snow in northern Wi, push mowing a 1/2 acre lot that is on a grade and anything else I have to do around house / property.

I have used resistance bands for years and they provide a good workout. The resistance increases as you stretch and it eliminates the momentum along with giving you more potential angles. I use Bodylastics bands with the attachments and they are actually safer due to the cord that runs through them to prevent snap back. You can also incorporate bands with bodyweight exercises as well.

Thanks, guys! Looking forward to more videos with the bands.

Bob and Frank: I love all your examples for resistance bands. Can you please come up or show a link to a workout plan for resistance bands? Also, possibly for cardio vs. traditional strengthening?

Love bands especially with training and teaching virtually - so many exercises and people don't want to spend much money on equipment and easy storage - no clutter Love them for standing and posture work Happy to have some research to back up what I do! thx😊

Thanks! I got som bands a month ago to start face pulls, this was helpful for more exercises!

I started using the resistance bands (under your video recommendation) about 7 months into my Long Covid. I hadn't exercised at all because my heart would palpitate and I, in general, hurt so much. It was a non-cardio way to get my body moving, and it really strengthened my muscles. I now have days of feeling much better. Thanks so much.

Love Bob & Brad!! I'm always watching their videos

Love you guys! (Sometimes I watch on 1.75 speed for fun! Today was a good day for watching you on chipmunk speed.) Thank you for all your instruction! 😘😘 keep on teaching.

I bought them in quarantaine. I was always sceptical but they are nice! The big bonus for me is that I can take them with me, e.g. on vacation! Just my thick sport towel to sit on, some bands, old shoes, jump rope and I can exercise on vacation, even at a hotel room (minus the jumping). 10/10 would recommand :)

Stir the Pot has got to be the best core exercise I've seen done with a band. Can't wait to try it out tomorrow. The bands from these guys are really great - highly recommend. I'm getting the loops next. Resistance bands are a godsend for this exercise junkie entering her 50s.

Just the advice I was looking for. Perfect timing chaps. Thankyou

So much great advice and help in all your videos !

I just bought several of your bands and resistance bands as well as the wall hooks and yes they are the best quality and worth every penny. I am getting my mojo back slowly at 66. I need to get some more of the wall hooks. They are the bomb for using the stretch round bands and for the hanging off the wall. Saves me from having big contraptions to workout when I have no space for the machinery type. I store them right on the hooks when I am done working out...double duty.

I'm so happy I came across RB's. I haven't been to a gym in 2 years and I when I did decide to go recently, I only went 3 times in one month so I cancelled the membership because it was always packed when I could go. With RB's I get a good 5 - 10 minutes workout before work in the morning, and a good session after work. I was teaching my wife how to use them last night. Watching my body change with these bands is so motivating for me. My wife is loving my change too 😂😂😂

Get better soon Bob. Love watching your videos.

Are the links to the studies referenced in the video posted, as mentioned?

Since I've started using bands, my left elbow has started hurting a little bit. Wondering if the free form style that bands offer is allowing me to use bad form.

I've legit transformed my body from banded calisthenics ONLY. I'm a huge fan.

Think about combining wall anchors, resistance bands, and a vibration plate. I am just finishing up an area that will let me do that.

Yes, yes, resistance training is fabulous!

Do the loops come in different sizes, circumferences? I’m only 5’0” so not sure it will work for me. I previously purchased a bar with the round bands, but it doesn’t work for me. 😕

Thank you gentlemen!

I bought a band set and the heaviest band broke and was too wimpy anyway so I returned it. Got individual 100lb bands (2) and installed wall anchor it's great.

A real treat each time :-) Thx

I've got a question about the resistance on the loop bands. Say I'm using a 50lb resistance loop to do pull aparts using just one section of the loop, would that give me the maximum 50lbs of resistance, or would I have to double them up, have two lengths of the same loop in my hands to get the full 50lbs of resistance?

You can also loop the bands over a section of pipe (steel, aluminum, ABS, PVC, conduit, etc.)

"Nose over the toes" LOL

Love the information 👌 👍

Hope you are feeling better now Bob; you are so awesome! :)))))

Thanks guys

Here is a quick & simple solution to using bands that don't quite give you that maximum range of motion you want regardless of your height...all you have to do is tie a simple overhand knot to reduce the slack and you are all set...some bands might require 2 knots to take up enough slack.Works like a charm...and yes resistance bands are the REAL deal...just use them correctly without abusing them. I bought my first set 10 yrs ago & they still work fine, those were from perfect fitness, now trying out Undersun Looped bands & am very impressed.

you are doing a terrific public service guys .keep it up

Any recommendations for types or brands to buy?

YES! I LOVE working with bands. A bit of 'special sauce' is to resist the rebound of the band rather than just release. Important not to throw away that part of the exercise. It makes the reps twice as effective. And, hey, if Tom Brady endorses them...

Well done guys

I am 63, lately I have been doing squats using my own weight and an exercise ball for back support, push ups, and bands for overhead press, curls, and lateral/front raises. I wish I had a wall to add anchors like yours. I really like the safety features in the newer bands to minimize the risk of the bands breaking and causing an injury. I have always preferred to work out at home. Years ago, I went too far with bench presses and got stuck with no spotter to lift the barbell off my chest. It took a while, but I was able to slide the barbell off without damaging anything. After that I bought a used bowflex, which was fantastic and similar to using bands. It is the older style and is very light weight (not like the newer versions) and very easy to tear down and move around by myself.

How are you doing now?

where can I get the door anchors

I pump out muscles through time under tension with resistant bands in a way that can’t be done with traditional weights.

Before Covid I used to tavel by business 2-3 times per week. Resistance bands allowed me not to care much about gym. Once I had to live in a hotel room having very small amount of free space, but even there I managed to find 1 square meter of space to exercise.

I don't fully understand how to work with resistance bands. Bands have a range of resistance for eg 7 to 14 kg. How do I know how much weight am I pulling at any given time? How do I Know that I am pulling the maximum weight at the end of my movement? Also, Is the given range of resistance for a single strand or two strands taken together ? If one strand is 14 Kg then does grabbing two strands make it 14+14= 28 kg? What about looping the band under my feet and grabbing two Strands in each hand? Am I pulling 28+28 =56 Kg now?

Please make a video about the ileocecal valve

Thanks

James Grage really popularized bands and has a ton of videos about using them for body building. Tom Brady apparently (allegedly) only uses bands, which is probably why he has lasted so long in the NFL, by limiting the impact on his joints during workouts. As far as I know Hershel Walker never lifted weights or used bands but still built an unreal amount of muscle. Goes to show you can build muscle with whatever you have, including bands if you want.

Can you talk about anatomy/muscles involved in lifting heavy shopping basket on one side? Result is v bad headache and nausea.

I love my resistance bands. I've been using them for 4 months and in addition to completely changing to a healthy diet, I've lost 40 LBs and am in the best shape of my life and just turned 39 days ago. Just some advice, invest in quality bands with anti snap design and possibly even some sports safety goggles for good measure. I read a few stories about bands snapping and didn't think it could happen to me. I had a barely used band snap and barely miss hitting my eye, I was very lucky. I immediately bought a better quality and more expensive set with anti snap and some goggles just to be safe.

I've been lifting weights for ever and I started using bands at work on my breaks. Eventually started doing 3, 20 minute workouts a day at work. (My breaks are only 15 minutes but...) After several months I realized that it turns out that 3 intense 20 minute workouts with bands is just as effective as an intense hour long workout with free weights. So on days I workout at work I didn't even need to do weight training after work, I can just go straight into cardio because I already did resistance training before I ever even clocked out at work.

I've had bands for well over a decade and I've only had 4 that snapped, one was because I was using it home and wrapped it around a square pole that created a pinch point. And in 15 years the other three bands that snapped were all bands that I kept at work where we have no air conditioning and it frequently gets over a hundred and ten degrees in the factory. I also made the mistake of letting this other guy use my band just so he see how they worked and then he uses them for several years when I'm not using them until they eventually snap. I guess he can't figure out how to go to academy sports and buy his own bands.

Just bought a TRX. It’s so good.
