Product Information

Perform an extension, moving your hands above your head. Your elbow and upper arm will not move, only your forearms. Focus on the tricep muscles. Squeeze at the top when your arms extended. Door anchors are useful for those living in rented accommodation or apartments as the internal doors will offer a solid place to anchor your bands without having to drill into any walls. Door anchors offer versatility and allow you to place the bands at various heights to suit different kinds of exercises. The appeal of a resistance band is in its compact form and its versatility. You can carry it with you when you travel, or you can use it at home to add a little edge to your workouts. Resistance bands also allow for low-impact exercises as alternatives to riskier exercises that involve free weights. Muscles Worked: Glutes, Hips (adductors), Thighs. It also helps improve knee and hip stability, which is great for injury prevention.

Finally, resistance bands can help you perform explosive movements. For example, they can help you perform a movement like the bench press faster to develop power. For most people, 3 anchors on the wall is enough. You want them at different heights so different positions are possible. Start with one at shoulder height. Then one about 1.5 feet above that and one 1.5 feet below it. If you though the high row was high, the face pull row is even higher...to your face...hence the name. Using that same motion, bring your hands/arms to the starting position, front and center, and repeat.

Standing shoulder press

Allow your muscles adequate time to recover after intense resistance band sessions, ensuring optimal muscle repair and growth. 14. Seek Professional Guidance Anchor the band a little higher than the previous pulldown if you can. Ideally you want your arms to be even more straight up above you, yet still very slightly toward the front. Your front delt will be right next to your ear.

Choose a Support: Find a sturdy vertical support, such as a tree or a pole, and wrap the resistance band around it.

RESISTANCE BAND ROWS BENEFITS Depress your shoulder blades and pull down with focus on your lats. Essentially your lats do the work first and your arms second. You can’t have beefy arms if you skip the forearms workout. And you need only one exercise to forge your forearms, which is wrist curl. The wrist curl specifically reinforces the lower arms and builds defined arms. Pull-Up Bar Attachment: Attach the resistance band to a pull-up bar and use it for assistance during pull-ups or chin-ups.

Deadlift

Grab the band with your hands in an overhand grip. You can position them closer together or a little wider (whichever feels more comfortable for you when performing the row). Bands are all about tension resistance. The more you create tension, the more resistance you will have. This is why when you are pushing or pulling the band, the resistance is constantly increasing. Bands are easiest at the beginning of the movement and hardest at the end, as the tension is actually creating more resistance (hence the reason a single resistance band will have a range of resistance). Conversely, free weights have a strength curve, so it is hardest at the middle range of the movement and easiest at the top, even though the actual resistance never changes.
