Our Mini bands have a fabric cover for extra durability and comfort. They are also a little wider than traditional rubber bands. It can be wise to start with the light version (reference resistance 8kg) before changing to medium (10kg) or hard (12kg) - they are sure to give you that extra challenge that you are after! 


 

LET'S GET STARTED!

Try this workout at home or at the gym - it doesn't take more than half an hour. Do the exercises for 20 repetitions x 4 laps.
