Be careful when increasing band tension !!

[rjl296]

Or you ll end up like me.
I used fairly heavy band tension, after months of not using them at all- and ended up with a sprained AC joint !!.
Now I cant train for a while and Im pretty screwed.
Im not blaming bands, rather my stupidity at thinking I could use them at a high tension after months of a layoff from them.

Time to make those legs ridiculously strong.......hey injurys can be a blessing if you use them as a time to really focus on weaknesses that don't get a lot of attention otherwise.....like balance, grip, flexability

now thats a positive way to look at it!!!!
