Bands

They are used to train strength, endurance, mobility and motor control. They are ideal for adding resistance to bodyweight exercises, and they can be used for stretching and toning. In some cases, their ascending resistance also makes them useful when recovering from injuries.

You can use them for targeted exercises on legs, buttocks, arms, shoulders and core. Just place them correctly and follow a progressive program. Download the Technogym App now and let our Talent Trainers guide you through ever-changing workouts with your fitness elastics.

Bands such as our Power Bands or shorter Loop Bands are flat and wide; they can be used to add resistance to bodyweight exercises, and their closed loop enables specific movements such as banded lateral walks or clamshells. Our Elastic Bands come with handles and are better suited for simulating movements with load, such as you would do with a dumbbell, for example. Moreover, their casing prevents the elastic core from entangling and protects it from wear and tear.

Choose according to your training level and the muscle group you are training: obviously, smaller muscle groups such as those in the shoulders and arms can benefit from training with low-resistance elastic bands, while you can choose a medium-resistance elastic band to make arm bends more challenging, and even higher for squats and deadlifts.

Squats, deadlifts, kickbacks, shoulder presses, thrusters, biceps curls, triceps extensions, banded side walks, planks with resistance, and many others. They are ideal for full body workouts.
