I do band workouts on YouTube. I like Sydney Cummings. I am having knee issues. I am able to get a good workout in without squats and lunges.
I bought these: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07H4J8W..._dFAvDbJ2YG4X4. They aren't as stretchy as the rubber ones. I am not sure if I like them yet. The good part is that they don't roll like the latex bands, but I don't get the range of motion that I had with the latex bands. I snapped my cheap latex bands so I will be forced to use these now. I am interested in other people's recommendations, too. |

Hi Susan,
I have both Travel Fit and Body Weight and Bands. Sometimes, I think I end up not enjoying the video as much as I anticipated maybe not because of the quality of the video itself, but perhaps when the what video offers does not match my expectation, but maybe it is affected by what's in my tummy. But I did not enjoy Body Weight and Bands as much as I enjoyed Travel Fit for some reason. I don't know why. I felt like Body Weight and Bands exercises were little more awkward and little less balanced (as far as which muscle groups you are working on) compared to Travel Fit. With that said, I enjoyed the bonus Calorie Crush that comes with Body Weight and Bands very much! I use this brand bands, and I love them. They are I think wider and also longer. https://www.amazon.com/stores/node/1...eb_19197478011 If you decide you want Travel Fit, I have one if you want to trade! |

Thank you everyone for your very helpful comments. Because Bodyweight & Bands has premixes and the bonuses, especially the stretch bonus, it sounds like the better choice to me. I wonder why Travel Fit doesn't have any premixes?
Do you use light, medium, and/or heavy bands? Do you think it would be helpful to have a couple and would it be better to have light and medium bands or medium and heavy bands? I'm looking at these: Super Exercise Band USA 7 ft. Long Latex Free Resistance Bands Thanks again!
