resistance training

Q:  I’m planning on getting 90x over the summer and i was wondering if the resistance bands are safe to use? no matter how much you weigh? has anyone ever had problems with them and did anyone find them dangerous to use?

A:  It really doesn’t matter how much you weigh because you don’t hang from them.  If you’re worried about them snapping or something, then i suggest you get a set of Bodylastics resistance bands (shown below) because they are anti-snapping.  They have a corded core running through the middle of the tubes to prevent them from being stretched too far, yet it doesn’t interfere with your exercises.  They also have a lifetime defect warranty.  Unlike the brand of bands that P90X has, the Bodylastics bands are adjustable.  You can combine the bands for custom tension levels.  That way your muscles will always be challenged and you won’t “get used” to those other bands with the handles already attached.  You can also check out these:  free workouts from Bodylastics.
