Fitness or exercise bands are short pieces of stretchable material that have different amount of resistance that are employed in copying many different weight training movements while reducing the potential risk of losing the control on the weight.

Formerly created for use by senior citizens in assisted living facilities, exercise bands or tubing turn out to be typically found in adult resistance training programs. This basic piece of equipment is becoming popular to everyone as it is easy and simple to use.

Exercise bands are created in different colours, lengths and tensions. Band may also be acquired by the roll which enables you to cut your band to your chosen length. There is a form of band that already features a loop where you only need to step into and straightaway used it as a type of resistance in place of doing your own knot.

Men and women who are fitness buffs love to use resistance bands since they are cheap, not difficult to keep, can be brought anywhere you want, can be used whenever you want, can copy over 100 different exercise routines, can give the tension that you want while doing, allows you to directly train a body part, can potentially replace or help a weight training, is not determined by your age or perhaps your well being, is safe to use rather than free weight or fitness machines and can be applied in flexibility training.

They can also be put to use for agility drill and it is the exercise band's amazing hidden use. You only need to set the band on to the ground and start jumping forward and backwards all over the band to start up your heart rate and also boosts your movement skills. You can bounce or run side to side over the band to make spice and variety to your agility training.

Similar to any way of fitness workout, you will have to correctly set your body to work with resistance bands by starting to warm up, you should always be dressed in comfy athletic clothes and shoes, use good form and control while having your training session, ideally hydrate yourself and fully stretch the muscles soon after.

Fitness band can even be used to rehabilitate your injuries considering they are relatively simple and less risky to use without endangering your injury by managing the stress and without resorting to lifting a weight that might probably hit your injured area.

Preserving your band is extremely important. Take a look at band once in a while for signs of tear and wear. It is advisable to alter your band once you see tiny spots and nasty splits. Rips and spots found in the band can snap in the course of the workout routine and might cause injury.

Exercise bands are perfect equipment that you can conveniently bring on the road and carry in your baggage, at any time, in the health club or even at your own private place, while having your regular walk or maybe during the break in your office!
