Resistance band workout routine

If you do exercise without warm-up activities, muscle injury, joint sprains, and other injuries will often occur. Therefore, you should do a full warm-up activity during exercise, and practice the strength of jogging, freehand exercise and light equipment to make your body sweat slightly after exercising, and then plunge into a large amount of exercise.

Doing simple limb movements before physical exercise is good for safe and effective exercise. Because in the cold winter, the body’s elasticity or stretch of muscles and ligaments is significantly reduced by the stimulation of cold, and the flexibility of the whole body joints is much worse than that of summer and autumn. If you do not warm up before exercise, it is easy to cause muscle, ligament strain or joint sprain, resulting in exercise cannot be normal. Before exercise, the various parts of the body and the relevant areas of each system are in a quiet and restrained state. The warm-up exercise is to gradually change the various parts and systems of the human body from static and restrained state to excitement and tension, thus enduring the exercise. Prepare for maximum load. Here are a few simple warm-up actions.

Back stretching

Hold the fingers with both hands and try to extend forward. After repeating it a few times, you can feel the extension of the shoulders and back.

Waist stretching

The feet are open and wide with the shoulders. The left hand is akimbo, the right hand is raised upwards, and the upper body is bent to the left. This action must be held for 15 seconds and must be facing the front when doing it, then, with the left hand, repeat the same action.

Chest stretch

Hands clasped behind the body and slowly lifted up. After repeating several times, you will feel the shoulders and chest stretch.

Pull the hamstring

Stand with one foot, the knees are slightly bent, and the other foot is pulled back by hand. To do this, pay attention to the knees and the buttocks forward. Then swap your feet and do it again.

Pull the calf muscle

Bend your right foot and straighten your left foot back into a bow. Note that the foot and foot should still be completely flat on the ground. Then change the foot and repeat the same action.

After pre-workout, let’s go to the resistance band part now. One thing to keep in mind is that some exercises will require different levels of tension. For example, you may be able to use a heavier band for exercises like chest presses or biceps curls. For that reason, having a variety of bands will allow you to get the most out of this workout.
