Fitness Tip
- Loop bands are an extremely versatile fitness accessory. They are commonly used for rehabilitation, stretching and mobility purposes. Alternatively, loop bands can alos be used to increase the resistance of a large amount of traditional resistance training exercises. Examples of exercise band exercises include banded front squats, glute bridges, enhanced push-ups, resistance band bench presses, kneeling/reverse crunches, and rowing movements.
What's the difference between resistance bands and power bands?
A resistance band and a power band serve the same purpose: you use the strength of the band to create resistance and mimic exercising with free weights or weight machines, or even add extra resistance to weights or body weight movements.
The main difference between the two is the length: a power band has more length, which makes it more suitable for heavier work. For example, you can use the band to add extra weight to biceps curls (you need to stand with your feet on the band while you curl the weight up).
Resistance bands are shorter, and that makes them better suited for adding extra resistance to localized muscle targeting, like hip abductions. A good solution for rehabilitation.
