If you own some of the best resistance bands and want to develop strength in your lower body and add tone and definition to your glutes and quads, then you are going to like this routine.
The workout comes from fitness trainer, Hayley Madigan and uses a workout band to add tension and resistance to a series of lower body exercises. Resistance bands are a great low-impact alternative to training with weight or resistance machines, and according to research published in the SAGE Open Medicine Journal, they have the power to promote similar strength gains to conventional strength training equipment.
You can use just one band for the full routine or, if you own bands of varying resistance levels then absolutely use this to your advantage. Just like you would aim to move up weight size if you were trying to build muscle with a set of the best adjustable dumbbells, you can also increase your strength gains by working up the resistance level in your banded workouts. This is known as progressive overload training, which is a way to constantly challenge your muscles and avoid a plateau in muscle growth.
