The versatility of this band helps you improve, one exercise after the other.
What precautions should you take before using your weight training band?
To work out with peace of mind, build these easy habits! Always check your anchor point before beginning, particularly for pulls with significant tension. Take the time to inspect your band: are there nicks or white marks? Stop, don't use it, since it could break during your workout.
What does the 5 kg resistance level refer to?
The 5 kg resistance refers to the force required to stretch the band. Concretely, you'll need to exert a 5 kg force to double its initial length (200% stretch). That's the ideal resistance for beginning or for exercises requiring a light tension. The harder you pull, the harder you'll work your muscles!
