The best exercises with resistance bands

Resistance bands literally make every exercise more challenging. Here are a few top picks to try:

1. Banded Squats

Do a squat with a band just above your knees. This makes you activate your glute muscles extra.

- Keep tension on the band, don’t let knees cave inward.
- Perfect for stronger and more explosive legs.

2. Standing Rows

Attach the band to a sturdy object and pull it towards you. This trains your back, biceps, and shoulders.

- Make sure to squeeze your shoulder blades well.
- Perfect for a strong and healthy posture.

3. Bicep Curls

Stand on a resistance band and pull the ends upwards.

- Simulates a dumbbell curl, but with constant tension.
- Perfect for strong, muscular arms.

What to look for when buying resistance bands?

Want to buy resistance bands that last long and don’t tear easily? Then pay attention to these points:

1. Resistance level

- Light (5-15 kg) → Perfect for mobility and warm-ups.
- Medium (15-35 kg)
→ Good for strength training and muscle activation.
- Heavy (35-60 kg) → Ideal for powerlifters and advanced athletes.

2. Material 

Choose natural rubber or latex, as this prevents quick wear and tears. Coated bands also have an extra protective layer and are perfect for intensive use.

3. Length & width

Shorter bands (mini bands) are ideal for activation. Longer bands (powerbands) are better for compound exercises and assisted pull-ups.

How to get the most out of your training with resistance bands?

Vary the resistance 

Use lighter bands for mobility and heavier ones for strength.

Keep tension on the band 

Don’t let the band go slack between repetitions.

Combine with other exercises 

Mix your band workout with bodyweight and strength training.

Ensure progression 

Build up your training by increasing the resistance.
