			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know those resistance bands, looks like big rubber bands with handles on them? Used to be those things weren&#8217;t taken very seriously for working out. Probably still aren&#8217;t. But let me tell you, we&#8217;ve been using them in <a href='http://healthybodyinfo.com/weblog/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-pro.php?id=12' onmouseover="top.window.status='fitness'; return true" onmouseout="top.window.status=''; return true" target="_blank">fitness</a> class, and when used properly they can kick your butt.</p>
<p>I work out with weights. So when you give me a couple of rubber bands to work out with my natural instinct is to sniff in disapproval. &#8220;You want me to use these for curls?&#8221; Ha! Let me tell you, these resistance bands will give you a workout. We loop them around our feet and do curls with them. We do press ups. Think it&#8217;s easy? Think again. We put them under our step bench and do leg extension <a href='http://healthybodyinfo.com/weblog/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-pro.php?id=15' onmouseover="top.window.status='exercises'; return true" onmouseout="top.window.status=''; return true" target="_blank">exercises</a>. We grab a partner and loop the bands around each other and do arm and shoulder <a href='http://healthybodyinfo.com/weblog/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-pro.php?id=8' onmouseover="top.window.status='exercise'; return true" onmouseout="top.window.status=''; return true" target="_blank">exercise</a>s. Gets painful quick!</p>
<p>I know, I thought it was crap too. Thought it was for the older citizens. Give me a barbell, man. But I&#8217;m a believer now. If you decide to give them a try you&#8217;ll find that they come in different thicknesses. First time using them I said give me the thick one. I did about two shoulder presses. I went and got the medium thickness resistance band and got all the workout I could handle.</p>
