I've been very good at resisting the resistance bands!
After using them in physical therapy, I bought some resistance bands for myself and also a book...the name of which I forget...but owning them hasn't had any effect on me yet. Possibly, I will have to open the book, take the bands out of their package, and start using them to see results.
Where does that road go that's paved with Good Intentions?
I lost 85 pounds without exercising (back problem) and got a personal trainer to show me how to lift weights without hurting myself. Had three sessions with her and the first time I went to the gym on my own and tried to follow her lessons, I tore a rotator cuff in my right shoulder. Then I had back surgery and felt like walking again, so I started walking. I mean I STARTED walking. That lasted a couple of days, but I never seemed to have time during daylight, so, I got these resistance bands and this book. Now if I can just get myself to try again... Meanwhile, I've gained back 15 pounds.
So I guess my reply is that they work (I hear), but only if you use them.
