Ask any fitness trainer for their favourite piece of kit, and the chances are they'll say resistance bands. Cheap, portable, lightweight and effective, these nifty little stretchy bands can be used to up the ante on (practically) any type of workout, and they're handy for rehabbing injuries, too.
And when it comes to working out our arms, they really come into their own. Too nervous to go straight to dumbbells or barbells? Resistance bands could be the perfect solution. Travelling but still want to workout? Pop a band in your suitcase and you're good to go. It's no wonder they're trending right now - a quick scroll on social media brings up thousands of workout results.
