Full Body Workout With Resistance Bands


Full Body Workout With Resistance Bands

In this elastic bodybuilding program, we favor an essential training accessory. Not only does it take up little space and is easily stored, but it is also very versatile. Both used to complete a traditional strength training, or alone in main training, it allows real resistance work. Elastic weight training exercises improve physical performance as well as gain speed, strength, and muscle power.


During elastic exercises, all muscles work, those of the upper body (triceps, pectorals, shoulders, back) as well as the lower body (glutes, hamstrings, quadriceps).


Elastic tubes are an excellent way to perform functional movements at home, choosing from the resistance that best suits your level.


Unlike weight training where resistance is constant, resistance training with elastic provides progressive resistance that varies during movement. The tighter the elastic, the greater the tension. This type of accessory, therefore, allows a more limited tension on certain working angles, thus avoiding injuries.


In-home training, there is no question of letting go of what has been learned. With this resistance band exercise routine, you stay on top of your physique, even at home, even on vacation.
