I've been working out from home for several years as it gives me one less excuse not to workout. lol Over the years, I've amassed all sorts of different types of bands. Too often I find that bands are marketed as a "one-size-fits-all" whether for replacement weights or the ability to work universally for exercises. I use a combo of bands and weights and I even have different bands depending on the exercise. Bottom line: some bands are better equipped for different exercises and these aren't a universal solution for every exercise or a true, complete substitute for weights. They do come with a booklet with different exercises- some more elaborate than others and some requiring two people which sort of defeats some of the purpose/convenience of these. There are three resistance levels but these will only be so strong since they're just not very wide. These work great for pull up assistance (depending how much assistance you need), can be used for stretching, and can be doubled up depending on the movements of the exercise you're doing. Will these work for all the different exercises I do with bands? No, not by a long shot but I still think they're great quality and allow me to do other exercises that I can't do with some of my other bands to include the ones with the handles on the end, the wide fabric ones, etc. Read more

This is a good set in that you get three bands of different resistances. The light is too light for me, the medium seems just right and I’ll have to work up to the heavy. They’re color coded it seems. I like that they offer suggested exercises but many of them state to use an anchor (see pictures) but they don’t say what some possible anchors could be?? Should I use a fridge? A chair? It’s sort of obvious in that the item will have to weigh more than I do in order to support my weight, but I don’t really have an anchor list in my home (or outside for that matter) to be able to complete the exercises listed. I really wanted this for squats so at least it’s effective for that, but if you’re looking for this to solve a lot of your exercise issues and needs be ready to search for some kind of anchor. One picture also shows a partner helping with the exercises. Yeah, I fly solo in this activity so not a reliable option for me. The bands themselves are sturdy and come packaged in a box, each wrapped with a rubber band. Aside from the exercise suggestions these are a good set and would work for travel or use on the go.

Ok, but not what I was looking for. Read more

These Resistance Bands are perfect for me! They are easy to use; simply step on one side and use them to do arm curls. I can also secure it to a door hinge and use them to do all sorts of different arm and leg strength-training exercises. As we age, we tend to lose muscle mass. Strength-training is VERY important. (So is stretching after each workout. Just a helpful tip!) These bands are made of thick rubber that should last for many years. I'm pleased with these resistance bands. These bands would make a great gift for anyone who is homebound and can't get out to the gym. Read more

I had knee surgery about a month ago, and I got to start using resistance bands this week to start strengthening the muscle around it. These have worked great! I can put it around a chair or a bed leg or banister on the stair and do my exercises. I have to go on a trip next week, and these are going in the suitcase as well. Most hotels have good exercise rooms these days, and if this one doesn’t have a bench or something I can attach to, I can use them in my room attached to the bed or a chair. The colors were also a plus for me - I love the blues and greens! Read more

These provide a great resistance workout. I like using them at home because they don’t take up a lot of room. I can even use these when I travel because they don’t take up a lot of space in my luggage. These are nice thick bands and are high-quality. Read more
