One of the many effective ways to place necessary demands on muscles for the training effect we need for muscles strength increases, muscle hypertrophy, metabolic enhancement, etc is via the use of high quality resistance bands.

However, one of the primary reasons for “band adversaries” to not take band training seriously is due to the misconception that we cannot generate enough intensity/workload via the bands alone.

To learn more about the various ways to regulate intensity/workload, and confirm the validity of resistance band training, read my friend, and fellow strength coach, Dave Schmitz’s comprehensive article on that topic:
