Workout guidelines:

Most gym goers, including me, used to jump into an 8 week workout routine found on any website or fitness magazine. However, many such workouts are
either way too advanced for the average person or it simply does not burn enough calories to make any real changes to your body.

Beginners should never mirror a workout found on a fitness magazine unless it specifically states that the workout program is for beginners. Resistance bands works well for both beginners and advance individuals. The reason why is because unlike other workout devices, you can change the intensity of the movement by simply changing your hold on the bands.

Beginners should perform the exercises below one time through, once per week. For the advanced individuals, execute the exercise 3 times through 2-3 times per week.

circuit training with resistance bands (3 or more exercises required)

Circuit training with resistance bands is a great way to combine strength training and cardio all at once when you're short on time. Traditionally, the rest period between exercises in this workout is very little if any, often with rapid movement from exercise to exercise. Choose three exercise that you can do back to back with the bands like a lunge, shoulder press, and dead lift.Execute each exercise for 8-10 reps than move to the next exercise until you complete the entire set.

Superset training with resistance bands (no more than 2 resistance band exercises required)

Superset workouts involves doing back to back exercises with no rest between sets. Basically, this type of workout maximizes training intensity and allows you to work several different aspects of the muscle at the same time. For best results, train opposing muscle groups first. This approach to training allows one muscle group to recover while the opposing muscle group is working.
