Getting A Resistance Band..set



Recommended Posts

I am planning to buy a resistance band for exercise. I am trying new things and with back problems it seems better for me to use the band instead of weights. You can use it so many ways to exercise. Do y'all think that's a good idea. I need something other than walking. :):D:P

Absolutely! Just be careful that you don't snag yourself. Otherwise there are plenty of videos out there on how to work out with resistance bands you can even find them on your cable tv network. I am going to try resistance bands as well. Good luck to you!

What is the difference? Is it the thickness or color coding?

Thanks :)

It's red yellow green I think. Red being the toughest. That's what my gym set is anyway.

Jut read the info based on the brand you buy. Some are color coordinated but some are not start slow and work your way up. I use heavy because I am very strong. But I am sure once I go through surgery I will need to start lighter in order to build myself back up.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
