What to do if you don’t have fitness bands at home?

We found six alternatives that work just as well!

What can replace the fitness band?
You need to find an object or material that can replace the band. Or think of another way to workout. In the first case, the following come to mind:

• elastic bandage;
• a jump rope;
• a medical tourniquet.

With these devices you can easily replace the fitness band when working with the target muscle groups. Let’s look at a few simple exercises.

Squats with an elastic band
The leg muscles are involved.

Technique

• Put the bandage just above the knee joint on both legs so that a tangible tension is created between them.
• Bend your knees and slowly lower yourself to a half squat. Control your knee joints – they should not move apart and away from the squat line.

Rope side to side in front of you
This exercise works the shoulders.

How to do it

• Fold the rope in half. Extend your arms in front of you at shoulder width so that the rope is in both hands.
• Perform the rope pulls diagonally up first, then to the side parallel to the floor, and at the end diagonally down.
