Don’t be scared to train with heavy band resistance
It’s not like heavy weight lifting. For example, today’s RBT Workout is a Heavy Resistance Band Workout that is super joint and spine friendly. However, it will still challenge you to push, pull, squat and even tow as hard as you can.
Things that need to occur in order for this to be an effective heavy resistance band workout.
1 – You have to have tension on the system at all times
2 – Doing more than 12 Reps per set is probably to many reps
3 – The band system is not getting repeatedly over-stretched
