If you’re looking to get started with weight training, or even to grow your home gym, the resistance band is the perfect place to start.

 

 

The resistance band’s versatility is next to none. The user can incorporate the resistance band into traditional bodyweight workouts to add difficulty and build muscles stronger and larger. Differing degrees of resistance make them a key piece of equipment for any fitness level. It is the perfect replacement for dumbbells and occupies only a fraction of the space.

One of the best features of a resistance band is its compact design. Whether you’re on a road trip or on a plane, you can pack your resistance band for workouts on the go. The best part? Your suitcase won’t exceed the weight limit. The resistance band can easily be used at work or in a hotel room. There are a lot of resistance bands out there, but they aren’t all made equal. Here are some of the best.

When talking about resistance bands, there are two main types. There are flat resistance bands or tubular bands with handles. Both are great tools and should be bought based on desired exercises and personal preference.

Resistance bands with handles are ideal for upper body workouts that involve curls. The handle allows the user to get a solid grip on the band without any slippage. One of our favourites is COREFX Advanced Toner. It is uniquely designed to get you the results you demand. Each toner is engineered to withstand even the most intense training session. Its durable design features a premium rubber core and ultra-strong safety sleeve. The advanced technologies powering every COREFX product ensure you get the most versatile and hardcore training equipment on the market.

The second type is the flat resistance band. This type of band is perfect for both upper and lower body workouts. This band’s time to shine is during workouts that require the user to stand on top of the band. They are ideal in these situations because there is no chance the band will roll under the user’s foot, unlike tubular bands.

Our favourite flat resistance is the band COREFX Strength Bands. They are high quality made of a layered rubber that will not rip. They are one of the most versatile and useful strength and conditioning tools that trainers have at their disposal. Every COREFX Strength Band can be used to add resistance to or help with stretching, lifting and body-weight training exercises. Strength Bands (along with all resistance bands,) can also be used to assist movements like chin ups, pull ups and dips. They come in a variety of different resistances that you can use to tailor the intensity of your workout.

The sheer versatility and affordability of the resistance band make it one of our all-time favourite products. When it comes to working out with a resistance band, you just have to get creative. From squats to pull-ups, adding a resistance band kicks your workout up a notch.
