Are you struggling to exercise because you can¡¯t hit the gym or lack the equipment?

Moving doesn't always require going outdoors or hitting the gym. You can workout at home

with minimum tools like the resistance bands and still reap the benefits of exercise.

Resistance bands offer a unique benefit from free weights because they create tension

throughout the entire movement, requiring more control during an exercise. By f? orcing the

muscles to constantly work?, this form of resistance will increase the muscle fiber

recruitment for better results. They also allow you to work from more angles, which gives

you i? ncreased mobility and flexibility?.

Resistance bands are the most versatile and easy exercise equipment you can find. They

come in many different lengths, sizes, and strengths for challenging workouts, and are

relatively inexpensive for an entire set. They are extremely portable and easy to store,

making them perfect for stowing away at home and bringing them along on your vacation

or to the gym.

What if you don¡¯t have resistance bands right now? No problem. Robe ties or nylons can be

good replacements for resistance bands!

Let¡¯s take a look at the best resistance band exercises for a full body workout.

Tones butt and legs

The Move:

Stand on the band with feet spread hip-width apart. Holding the handles of the band in

each hand, bring them up just above each shoulder to get tension in the band.

Slowly squat like you are sitting in a chair with your chest up, keeping your abs tight and

hands above the shoulders. Rise back up to standing position and repeat!

Tones shoulders, abs, butt, and legs

The Move:

Anchor your band to a low anchor, like a table leg or lower doorway, about a foot off the

floor. Stand so the anchor point is on your right with your feet a little wider than hip width.

While holding the band, put both hands at your right hip, bend at the knees and hips, so

your thighs are parallel to the floor (like you¡¯re sitting on a chair).

Now stand and twist your torso to the left, pulling your arms diagonally across the body

towards the left shoulder, up and outwards. Hold for a second and then return to the start

position and repeat with the same number of reps on each side.

Tones shoulders, abs, butt, and legs

The Move:

Find an anchor for your band that is above your head (like the top of a doorway). Facing

your anchor point, hold your band handles in each hand, palms down, and feet at hip width

apart.

Start by lowering into a deep sitting position (squat) while simultaneously bringing arms

down to your sides. Hold this position for a second and return to the starting position.
