Elastic bands are the best fitness aids available. There are more and more fitness professionals using it to implement training. In today’s article, I will introduce you to the training principles of the resistance band and how to use it. I hope it will help you a little.

What is the elastic band?

resistance band can also be called Elastic rope, resistance band, and Yongda rope. As the name suggests, it is a band item with elasticity. It is usually made of latex, TPE, special fibers, and other materials.

Elastic bands on the market are using color to distinguish pounds. Different colors have different thicknesses and widths. Elastic bands are generally divided into three types: band, ring, and tube. All three work well, depending on personal training habits.

Elastic bands were initially used in post-injury rehabilitation for injured patients. We can use the proper poundage to correct the movement and improve muscle strength. And now most people will use the elastic band for home training, assistance training, warm-up, etc…

The principle of elastic band training.

Elastic bands are different from barbells and dumbbells in the gym. The resistance of barbells and dumbbells is fixed and comes from gravity. The resistance of the elastic band, on the other hand, comes from the rebound force brought about by Elasticing. The elastic band can train strength, and stability, but also Elasticing. It is a total body aid. The important thing is that the resistance direction of the elastic band can be adjusted as you wish. The fixed point and the rule of tension determine it.

How to use the elastic band?

1. For warm-up
Before the start of any training, you can use a low-poundage elastic band. It can wake up the muscles, activate the joints, and prevent injuries.
For example, back muscle training can first use elastic band rowing, so that muscle congestion. Then have a better performance in the formal training. And bodybuilding, bodybuilding competitions, and pre-race players’ warm-up will also use the elastic band. A few simple movements can make the muscles engorged and look fuller.

2. Used to capture muscle sensation
Weight training is a very important skill to read and move in unison. This means that the brain can be aware of the force applied to the target muscle group. But for some newcomers to weight training, in the early stages is no way to wake up the muscle to start to the correct muscle group. So the coach will let them use the elastic band. First use the lightweight elastic band to simulate the movement track, and let the body get used to the target muscle group force application feeling. After catching the feeling, then come to formal training. This way training will be very effective.

3. Various parts of the muscle strength training
The elastic band can train many parts of the body. This can strengthen the stability of muscle groups, coordination, and explosive power. Whether you are in the company, or at home, you can always take out the elastic band training. And a few simple elastic bands can be combined to produce a very wide variety of training movements. Reminder, if the strength of a single is not enough, but also afraid to pull too tight to cause breakage. Then you can try to use two elastic bands together.

4. Advanced training, retreat training
Elastic bands can be designed according to their own needs to train movements. In barbell movements, progressive overload training is to increase the bar piece before you can choose to add the elastic band. This will increase the resistance later in the stroke and achieve the effect of progressive training. If you can’t lift dumbbells, practice elastic bands first; if you can’t pull up on the bar; use elastic bands to assist. As the pounds of elastic bands are practiced heavier and heavier, the body quality is gradually stronger. You can then advance to equipment training or even free weights. Anyone with a physical injury, or an older person with a lack of muscle strength, can use a low-pound elastic band to implement step-down training.

Elastic bands have always been a great training aid. It can be used alone for step-down training, or with weights for advanced training. NQFITNESS has a wide variety of bands for you to choose from. You just need to find the right kg and intensity for you, you can enjoy using it.
