Resistance Band Full Body Workout

Resistance bands are one of the most versatile fitness accessories out there. They can either create the resistance when used in exercises such as bicep curl, or subtract the resistance in exercises such as pull-ups and dips. Apart from strength training, they’re fantastic for stretching exercises.

If that hasn’t convinced you yet – resistance bands are very budget friendly and you don’t need much space to store them or use them. With all of those facts in mind it’s safe to say that resistance bands are truly… irresistible. If you don’t have your collection of bands yet you can find them here, but for all of you who already passed this step – let’s get right into it!
