You don't need much to train your whole body without leaving the house. Today I'm showing you my favourite fitness accessory: the Thera-Band.

What is a Thera-Band?

Thera-Bands are fitness bands. They are stretched to create resistance. They have several levels of elasticity, and therefore resistance, which are distinguished by their colour. When buying them, make sure you choose one that doesn't contain too much plasticiser, as this material can be bad for your health.

Why use a Thera-Band?

It helps you both strengthen your muscles and improve your balance and coordination. This inexpensive, lightweight and practical fitness accessory allows you to train your body in an effective and varied way. Aside from the elastic band, you don't need anything other than your own body weight and a fitness mat, if you wish.

The exercises

Anne, a youtuber specialising in fitness exercises, shows you below a series of nifty exercises like deadlifts, rowing moves or sit-ups, which will work all parts of the body. She uses two Thera-Bands of different resistance.

The new generation: the Thera-Band CLX

The new CLX bands from Thera-Band have been developed from the classic models. Their loops make your workout even more varied, simple and effective and allow you to have your hands open, closed, or hold objects while maintaining resistance to work the upper and lower body simultaneously.
