Resistance Bands

Ask a Question

Recently bought some resistance bands but must admit they have been out of the box once!! Are they any good at buying muscle?

I bought them last year and I admit they have only seen daylight a couple of times. I think they're great if you can attend a class with a well defined workout but that's not going to happen any time soon. I'm sure they are good for muscle building, but unless you are really well disciplined, it becomes boring. I've since bought a vibration plate and that's definitely been much more fun. (before anyone starts with the funny comments - yes, there are specific exercises πŸ˜† )

sunny101 Bossclaz my OH uses bands most days while he can't get to the gym, yes they do build and maintain muscle, but he is very focused on his body building. I can't imagine him on a vibration plate Image

sunny101 I gave up taking life seriously ages ago. Life is for laughing, living and being happy, that's why we retired with just enough to get us to retirement age, our motto 'we'd rather be poor and happy than rich and dead'.

I’m currently using them daily when doing my stretches. They help with your core strength. Its not an intense workout, but there are benefits
