Resistance bands

What are resistance bands? 

Resistance bands are elastic bands known by different names. In addition to resistance band, the terms elastic bands, resistance bands and power bands are also frequently used. The name actually gives away exactly what a resistance band does. It provides additional resistance when performing exercises. However, this does not mean that a resistance band is only suitable for making strength exercises heavier. In fact, you can use it to make certain bodyweight exercises, such as the Pull Up, lighter. 

Resistance bands were initially used mainly in rehabilitation training (for example, in physical therapy). Now, however, more and more bodybuilders and strength athletes are incorporating resistance band exercises into their workouts. 

These elastic bands are available in different resistances or strengths, so there is a suitable resistance band for every level and exercise.
