Bodylastics Resistance Bands Review & Tutorial

My yellow 5lb band disintegrated in three years. These are not very long lasting and the so called "Lifetime Warranty" says you have to pay more than half the value of the item for "shipping". So, you can do it again three years later? Not a great deal.

As a now road biker and former gym hitter, I was looking for a nomad solution to keep some muscle mass in my upper body while building up legs and cardio through biking. These are perfect for that purpose. Bodyweight work out is probably even more efficient but I found it to be quite taxing on the joints, where as rubber bands will do good for your muscle still and spare your muscle insertions. Plus the bag is a whole gym that you can carry everywhere you go (on vacation, stopping by at your gf's, when on a mission abroad for work...) and it stores like a wonder at home. Excellent bundle.

Thank you for a clear and simple introduction to the bands and how to use them. The door anchor is a brilliant idea for all the reasons that you mentioned. Thank you.

Great review. Channel looks good. Just subscribed.

I'm comparing their different packages. I think you have the set with 4 handles instead of 2, 4 ankle straps instead of 2, and 2 anchors instead of 1. That set has one extra level of resistance, which I like. Do you find the extra attachments useful?

Am I the only person that thinks these things are rubbish?

Not sure how 'active' this comment section still is, but question: I've had several brands of bands and my experience is that the shiny ones are where the latex feels 'sticky'. Those I do not like. I have a set that seems to be impregnated somehow with what seems like talcum powder and those are very good. They have a consistent stretch over the full length. Are these bodylastic ones like that? They have a consistent stretch, or are they like those cheaper A-express ones that stretch ones and then lose some stretch in the process. Also, these ones seem hard to find now? Thanks for input!

The price just really went up much in 2020.

After 4 yrs how are the bands holding up?




Also I'd like to pet your beard 😜

Do you even lift dude? Ahh no I stretch bands lol

Ok sure It have been 3 years and now I'm looking at to purchase it a good product and it still working not broke or damage did you get your money worthy

Very cool

Review about bodylastic pullup resistant band

Does it need to be anchored to a solid hollow metal frame door? I would think that an ordinary wood frame door wouldn't hold up?

I'm looking at getting these. I have several tendonitis and arthritis issues. Always lifted very heavy and have trouble even picking weights up now. Hopefully these be a great work around and have good resistance and durability.

Bonjour
Je cherche à améliorer mon physique et faire des entraînements suivi un peu comme insanity mais en version élastique et plus santé est ce que tu aurais une idée de ce type de programme ?

For how much time can they last?

Now that it has been a few years since this review, what do you think about them? Are they fairly long lasting? Have you had any problems with them?

Can i use these ouside attached to a playground? Monkey bar's? Pull up bar's? Stamina 1690 tower?

Hi there Anthony, is there any video in which you talk about training the external rotators of the shoulder using the elastic bands? I'm dealing with a bit of an unbalance between my front and back chains and I would really need an advice. Thank you

The guy standing in the background is obviously a beginner. He needs a lot more muscle (really bad attempt at humor!). Thank you for your excellent review. I will be buying these soon. They look really well made.

When the bands snap, do they hit you in the face or leg?

Could you use the ankle strap for an anchor around a pole or weight bar to do exercises?

I am going to get some bands soon. I been wanting dumbbells but they so expensive, the bands look like steal.

I got my Strongman set last week, I got a better bag, is like a small duffel bag, very nice, I didn't get the poster, I got a booklet with exercises, I was disappointed about that. The bands are great.

Cool I bought these recently and I use the door jam thing in my car door while we drive from California to Panama

I'm a fitness professional and have had the Bodylastics bands for many years (in fact I believe I had the first run of bands featuring the anti-snap feature). I have never had an issue w/ the bands, if you take care of them and don't overstretch them or abuse them on any unsuitable surfaces (ex. placing them under your feet on a floor that is abrasive) they should last indefinitely!

I love the quality of the door anchors, handles, and ankle straps, plus the versatility of being able to attach multiple bands in various increments of resistance.

Thanks for posting. I'm just checking bands for the very first time.

I purchased my first set in May 2012 because I developed tennis elbow and needed a way to work around my injury, These bands are the best, I went into a depression when I stopped the weights but these bands helped me gain alot of muscle tone back & I thanked Blake K. the inventor directly, he's a nice guy and Im glad he invented them.

Excellent review, thanks for posting.

I am trying to exercise from my home because I live in New York and I cannot afford to pay for Physical Therapy. I know a few basic exercises but i would really like you to show how to hook the different elastics. Thank you, DW

Great just got these, hey looks like you got the same Denon headphones I got based on the book type book it comes in I also use it to prop my laptop at times too Hahahahahahaha....

Hi Anthony, can you please make a video review for some training rings, or at least recommend me a brand? Thanks a lot for everything
