anyone have resistance bands?

[emmab]

going overseas in a week and was told these are best to take to keep up training.
there seem to be two kinds..the single band, and the ones with the stirrup-like ends
what is best??

I have the single bands - like you can get on elitefts.com - but I use those in addition to dumbbells, barbells, etc. as opposed to by themselves.

single bands, because you can adjust to the type of exercise you want to do and resistance.

Mine have the stirrup-like ends, but they are removable (with a clip) so you can take them on & off or not even use them.....and they take up very little room in your suitcase....

is there a website giving exercises with the single one piece ie not looped band..i just cant visualise lower body etc exercises

bands are certainly better than nothing and some of them can provide significant tension.

there are quite a few types

Here's one website I found - http://www.performbetter.com/catalo...p_Q_PageID_E_53_A_PageName_E_LandingPageBands


Just google "resistance bands training" and you'll find lots of stuff - have to sort thru it.
