LF Lower Body Band Workout Recommendations

For those of you that do resistance band workouts which ones do you recommend? They can be YouTube or DVD. I tried a Sydney Cummings YouTube band workout yesterday and really didn’t enjoy it much.

TIA.

If you search “ Barlates lower body band” on YouTube, Linda Wooldridge has lots.

Heather Robertson has a few. I've only done this one so far, but I liked it: https://youtu.be/MppmRWrj1YM

I like these Linda Woolridge ones:

Beginner Loop Lower Body: Not easy but if it is too easy for you just use a "heavier" band or add ankle weights. 45 minutes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRB1...&index=10&t=0s

Another one using a loop for the glutes (32 minutes)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHQ3...&index=11&t=0s

Outer thigh loop extreme (36 minutes) She also has others in her loop extreme series such as glutes and inner thighs.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ht5P...r&index=4&t=0s

She has many more videos that use the band. Once you get on her YouTube channel you can find them.
Something to be aware of with Linda's workouts: the moves she does for the front of the thighs overwork the hip flexors, IMO. I just do less reps for those moves.

ETA: I find that many of Linda's workouts concentrate on "single parts" -outer thighs, inner thighs, glutes. I prefer ones that work the entire lower body or total body. I really like this total body band workout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9wc...index=32&t=59s

I also have some of Linda's DVDs.
1) Her mix and match series has upper, lower and abs workouts and 2 of the 4 lower body ones use the looped bands.

2) Resistance band solution dvd-the lower body one but I think that one is OOP.

3)Resist-a-barre DVD and that uses flat and looped bands. There are 3 lower body sections-Cardio legs, barre legs and glutes in addition to a section for abs and one for upper body.

I'm not familiar with this channel -- it looks promising! I love loop band work and she has a bunch.
