About bands:
Resistance bands are great because they are so versatile and you can use them with minimal space. They are excellent for beginners because there is less chance of injury, yet they can also challenge advanced athletes. Additionally, they are the "go to" apparatus for helping physical therapy patients.
Bands come in various resistance levels. Choose an easy, a medium, and hard band, because you may be stronger in some exercises than others. Bands with handles are easier on your hands. You can find then at either Walmart or Amazon.com. Buy sturdy ones so they don't break on you.
