Hi Dave,

This “Discovery Day” column resonated with me as I’m looking forward to turning 76 this summer. I’ve worked out nearly all of my life, and when my doctor recently asked me how often I work out, I told him: every day. At different periods of my life I’ve done distance jogging, bicycling, swimming, hiking, walking and/or weightlifting, taekwondo and, since I discovered RBT early in 2020, resistance band workouts. Yet I’ve always been injury prone and with age, despite my best efforts, I continue to deal with muscle strains. As a consequence, I find myself lately doing more and more “Discovery Days”.

Your resistance bands provide me the ability to find my way, varying my level of effort and targeting the amount of manageable, specific muscle stress.  By keeping to lighter bands I find I can do higher rep, constant motion workouts for arms, legs, shoulders and back. Once warmed up, I’ll sometimes move up in bands, paying close attention to what my body is telling me and responding accordingly. Bottom line: Your resistance bands enable me to keep going.

Thanks again,

Frank @ Colorado
