Exercises by equipment

Band exercises

Bands are flexible loops that get harder to stretch the further you pull them. They are light, cheap and portable, and suit warm-ups, home training and adding resistance to body-weight moves.

Check bands for nicks or tears before use, anchor them securely, and control the band as it returns.
