Let's Bands

When you build a better body, you build a better life. And the best way to a better life, is by simplifying. Which is the core philosophy of Let’s Bands - eliminating excuses by evolving exercise. Let go of the gym workout that is a workout before it even begins, and instead put the power of the gym in the palm of your hand, or sleeve of your tote, or pocket of your purse - so it’s there, wherever “there” happens to be.

Most things you do with a dumbbell or barbell can be done with a powerband. Will a resistance band deadlift give you exactly the same strength stimulus as a loaded barbell on the platform? Of course not. But that's not necessarily a downside. In fact, I would argue that the main benefit of powerbands is the way they provide a different stimulus to your muscles throughout your range of motion.

To really develop and maintain your fitness level as a female soccer player requires a combination of anaerobic and aerobic training. Think about it: you need the power to jump for a header or sprint 10 yards to a ball and recover quickly—and to last the full 90 minutes of a regulation game.

Many of you may already know it. Nowadays, EMS training, or Electronic Muscle Stimulation, is frequently promoted as a fast alternative to conventional training. Most training units take just 20 minutes and create tension in the muscle through external electronic impulses. The strength of the signal determines how many muscle fibres are addressed; sometimes the number can be greater than we could ever mobilise through deliberate body signals. This strengthens the muscles and burns more energy.

Do you want to build muscle but don’t think you can with powerbands?
Building muscles with high numbers of repetitions. Contrary to what many training experts think, it is possible to build muscle with high numbers of repetitions. We’ll show you how. Even back in the day when Arnold Schwarzenegger was working out, training methods involving 20 to 100 repetitions were applied and promoted successfully. No science – simply tested through “trial and error”. Thankfully, today we can rely on clever scientists to spare us endless trials.
