Theraband Exercise

"Julianne"

I met a client yesterday morning in her office before leaving town. In
her
local office, she has an outpatient rehab center (JayJay - if you were a
little closer, I could have gotten you a great deal on therapy!). Anyway,
she was late and I was playing around in the clinic and found some
theraband
resistant exercise bands. I cannot tell you how much fun I had.

They are certainly no substitute for weights, etc. but I am thinking that
when I go to the camp, etc. where exercise equipment is scarce, they will
provide hours of endless entertainment.

I cut off about a six foot piece of several of the heavier bands. It is
too
much fun although my client was a tad annoyed that I chose to exercise my
biceps and triceps on the 2 hour ride to her other office. I didn't care.
It is not often I am able to exercise on someone else's time!

They were probably jealous that they had to drive and not work out like
you!! That is pretty cool, though.

Micheal Thurmond's Six Week Body Makeover comes with these things. If
you like to watch infomercials you'll recognize the name as a body
buidler guy who drives around in a classic Corvette and sells a weight
loss system. My wife bought it to try it out and I tried to follow
it with her for a while, but it was just a low fat system that made me
constantly craving greasy foods so I didn't last just like previous
attempts at low fat I've tried.

So how do you use them? His program has you loop the bands around a
door knob for resistance and that's inconvenient.

These are definitely good stuff -- I always take mine when I travel.
And they're good for shoulder rehab exercises too.
