Resistance bands vs Dumbells
To those body builders using dumbbells to gain muscle and mass, there is a new resistance bands system. It not only is so compact and versatile you can use at home, the office, on holiday. Train anywhere you like without the need to visit the gym saving you a lot a money each month on gym membership fees.
The system has 5 fitness bands which comprise of:
1 Yellow 4 foot long elastic (5 lbs.)
1 Green 4-foot long elastic (7 lbs.)
1 Red 4 foot long elastic (13 lbs.)
1 Blue 4 foot long elastic (19 lbs.)
1 Black 4 foot long elastic (28lbs.)
If you feel combining all these bands is still not enough for all those heavy weights. You can purchase the Ultimate Mr Thick at 70lbs of extreme resistance. I must say after using the one band at 28lbs gave me enough resistance for a great intense workout. You will also receive anchor straps to workout your legs and a door anchor to perform various exercises. After using it for 2 months with the p90x program i have achieved approx 140+ different exercises.
I don’t use my dumbbells as much as i used to, the resistance bands are always in my car. I love them and can’t leave home without them, yes i’m now a fitness addict. Once you start on these resistance bands you can’t stop. So what you waiting for get the resistance bands they cost less then a months gym membership.
