As mentioned in the HRH Program, resistance bands are an excellent and inexpensive way to multiply the results of your training. With high-rep, low-weight exercises, you’ll continue to build fat-burning muscle in places not targeted by your regular aerobic HRH Workout.
Plus, with resistance bands, you can keep your heart rate in your zone by switching exercises easily. To “adjust” the bands for a new exercise, you just step on it in a different place. With weights, you’re often stuck manipulating pins and iron into the right place before you can start.
If you wan to build some powerful muscle (fast-twitch anaerobic instead of slow-twitch aerobic), just get a higher rated band. You’ll be surprised how much resistance you can get with them.
Again, Bodytrends.com is an excellent place to shop for these bands, and you can click the link below to get one or two to meet your needs. Please note, though, I don’t recommend getting the “TheraBand” brand, as I’ve found they tear easily and need more maintenance—as opposed to none.
