Aug 19Th.Stretch bands and springs have been used by resistance trainers for almost a 100 years. This is one of the early pictures of a training manual.
"Avoiding the phrase “I don’t have time...”, will soon help you to realize that you do have the time needed for just about anything you choose to accomplish in life. "

I have always used stretch bands or spring set since I was in high school. In the last 10 years they have been promoted more for functional improvement as well as adding some resistance component to aerobics classes. When you don't have time, traveling on vacation, or you can't get to the gym, stretch bands are a quick substitute. However, the best function of bands is the warm up, as they can be use for all the articulation of any muscle group.
Have a great day suffering and remember the mission is sacred.

Ken,
Who is selling a good, thick-handled, KG based, no-paint-on-the-handle kettlebell these days?
