I’ll be honest, there aren’t many lower-body exercises for which I would choose even the best resistance bands. Your legs house some seriously powerful muscle groups, including the glutes — the largest muscle group in the whole body — and quads, so overloading them properly can be tricky with just a band on hand.

However, resistance bands work, especially for rehabilitation, strengthening, mobilization and stabilization. You just need to be willing to get creative and play around with your variables to boost intensity.
