Resistance Band Training


Resistance Band workouts are a great way to tone the muscles without using weights. They are inexpensive, rubber bands that come in a variety of resistances depending on your fitness level. These bands allow you to exercise every large muscle group in your whole body, like the deltoids, biceps, triceps, chest, latissimus, and obliques. With the bands you can hit all angles of the muscle by just alternating your movements. You can use resistance bands safely on your own, and they bring a great variety to your workout. Unlike lifting weights that make your muscles stiff and bulky, resistance bands help boost your stamina, flexibility, range of motion, and they give you a nice shape without looking too buff.  
The following picture holds just a few of the many exercises you can do with the resistance band. Pick about 10 exercises, focusing on any part of the body, and do 3 sets of the workout, with a minute break in-between each set.
