Resistance band exercises are very simple, they can help you get great results, and they can also be done anywhere. If you want to do a complete workout, you don’t necessarily need to go to the gym or buy weights: this simple and effective tool will help you build your muscles using the force of resistance.
We tried a short workout with these resistance bands and want to show you the exercise series that we like the most. You can choose only a few of them, but for the best results, we recommend doing all of the exercises.
To clarify: we had 2 resistance bands: one of them in the shape of a circle and the other much longer with free ends. All you really need is a free toe band, but for some exercises, you will need to circle.
Leg Swings:
Place the band just above the ankles. The narrower the circle, the more difficult it will be to do the exercise.
Leg swings can be done sideways, forward, and backward. Do 10 to 15 reps on each leg.
Side Steps:
Starting position: feet shoulder-width apart, the band is on the hips, just above the knees. Step to the side and repeat 10-15 times for each leg.
Squats:
Leave the band in the same position and squat regularly. Do 15 to 20 repetitions.
Lunges:
Stand on a band with one foot and hold the ends. Do forward lunges: 10-15 reps for each leg.
Knees To Chest:
This exercise is a bit difficult, but it is great for your legs and abdominal muscles. Grasp the end of the band, place your hands on the floor in a plank position, and do this exercise from knee to chest. Try this 5 to 10 times with each leg.
Upward Leg Swings:
Get on all fours, grab the ends of the band again, and push up with one leg. Repeat 10-15 times. This exercise is great for the glutes.
“Bicycle”
Lie on your back and place your elbows on the floor. Fix the band on the feet and bicycle your legs for 2-3 minutes.
Lifting The Body:
Flex your abdomen and lift your body. Do at least 20 repetitions.
Inner Thighs Exercise:
This is a great exercise for the inner thighs. Roll your knees back so your buttocks work too. Repeat 10-15 times for each leg.
Deltoid Exercise:
Put the band on the ground and step in the middle. Take the ends and do arm swings. Repeat 15-20 times.
