Resistance training is based on the principle that muscles of the body will work to overcome a resistance force when they are required to do so. When you do resistance training repeatedly and consistently, your muscles become stronger.
The Five Key Factors That Make Resistance Bands
Principle 1: Progressive Overload.
Progressive overload benefits your training because you’ll avoid a plateau. By changing or progressing in your workouts, you’ll keep your muscles challenged and you’ll get stronger.
For example, in the first month of strength training, you might perform 10 repetitions at one weight. Then, the next month, you’d perform 12 reps of the exercise. Or maybe you’d stick to 10 reps but increase the weight you’re using instead.
Researchers found progressive overload — gradually increasing the weight and number of repetitions of exercises — to be effective for increasing bicep strength and muscle growth in both men and women.
Principle 2: Specificity.
The principle of individualization dictates that sports training should be adjusted according to the age, gender, rate of progress, and previous skill development of the individual. The goal of individualization is to capitalize on strengths while minimizing existing skill deficiencies.
Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.
Principle 3: Individualization.
Training program individualization when applied correctly can produce optimal performance outcomes, reduce injury risk, address weaknesses, and capitalize on an individual’s existing strengths
The Specificity principle states that the type of training done should be specific to the individual and their goals. This means that each individual should select their training based on what sport they are in, what they want to achieve, and what specifically they want to improve at.
Principle 4: Variation.
Resistance bands are not only versatile in their benefits and implementations, but they are also versatile in terms of different exercises that can be done. With bands, you can hit all three planes of motion – sagittal, frontal and transverse.
Resistance bands can target any muscle group, from quads, hamstrings, and glutes, to shoulders, chest, lats, biceps, triceps, and abs
Principle 5: Reversibility.
The principle of individualization dictates that sports training should be adjusted according to the age, gender, rate of progress, and previous skill development of the individual. The goal of individualization is to capitalize on strengths while minimizing existing skill deficiencies.
Strength training may enhance your quality of life and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Strength training can also protect your joints from injury. Building muscle also can contribute to better balance and may reduce your risk of falls. This can help you maintain independence as you age.
Science-based resistance training increases muscle tone, decreases body fat, and increases overall strength and agility in as short as two weeks. Linear resistance found in bands ensures physical results. I maximize benefits by coupling it with both fast and slow twitch, compound exercises, which also ignite serotonin and dopamine, so you’ll feel better, as well as look better. Amazing results and more time to do what you need and want to do — Total win-win!
Resistance exercise has been around for almost a century. It was originally introduced as a unique exercise tool and eventually became popular as a rehabilitation device. Today, bands are more than just an entry-level alternative to heavy free weights. They’re now used around the world by elite athletes in all sports—football players, UFC fighters, powerlifters, bodybuilders, you name it—to develop strength, power, speed and even muscle size.
All four of these properties are critical to ensuring an effective resistance-training routine.
Elastic and free-weight resistance (i.e. barbells and dumbbells) have several things in common:
Both provide some form of resistance.
Both allow a free range of motion.
Both allow variable speed of movement.
Both allow progressive resistance.
Despite these similarities people would assume, due to the lightweight and “flimsy” appearance of elastic-styled bands, that free weights are clearly superior resistance-training equipment. However, studies have shown that muscle activity and peak load during elastic-resistance exercise is similar to that of free-weight training. Research has also found that programs utilizing elastic tubing, elastic bands, and similar devices increase muscle strength and size, and decrease body fat in a similar manner to free-weight training programs.

In other words, your muscle fibers don’t know the difference between dumbbells and elastic bands in a given range of motion—provided the amount of resistance is more or less the same.
