TheraBand exercises for the whole body

With a TheraBand, you can train your entire musculature at any time. Numerous exercises for the back, abdomen, legs, arms and buttocks ensure firm muscles, a straight posture and less pain.

This is how you train properly

Do each exercise for about 60 seconds. Then take a break of about 60 seconds. You should repeat each one-minute set of exercises three times.

Adjust the number of repetitions to your fitness level if necessary. If you can easily do more than 12 repetitions within the time limit, you should use the next stronger band. If you can do less than 8 repetitions, use a weaker band. Depending on the area of your body, you may need different strength bands.
