Fitness Bands - Resistance Band Exercises Using Fitness Bands

Fitness Bands - Resistance Band Exercises Using Fitness Bands

 

Fitness bands, also known as resistance tubes, have become increasingly popular with the workout world.
This band is for the advanced body builder. You don't want to try to start off with the heaviest band. You could really do damage to your muscles. Start off slowly and you will see an improvement in no time.When you first buy a fitness band, you might get a little confused because there are different sizes and colors. Don't worry. The cooler colors are heavy and the bold colors are lighter. For example, a red band is the lightest of them all. That is what a beginner should start out with. Silver is the thickest and the most heavy.
A fitness band feels different than other weight machines or free weights because free weights and others use gravity to tell where the weight comes from. You will only get resistance with only one motion. With the bands, the resistance is constant. This makes it harder to do. The resistance is there with all the moves you make, not just one.
The benefits of using fitness bands  are that they are easy to take with you while you travel, they increase your bodies coordination, there are hundreds of workouts you can do with the bands, low cost to you and are great for any level of workout whether you are a beginner or a major body builder.


They are easy to use and the best part is you can use them in your own home or where ever you are. There are tons of different exercises you can do and even to create on your own. Fitness bands are one of the most ignored pieces of fitness equipment. Most people think that free weights will give you better results. What they don't know is that when you use resistance, you are targeting more muscles at the same time along with building flexibility within them.
