Best Gym Equipment Ever!!!!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bodylastics 11 pcs *BASIC TENSION (88 lbs.) Quick-Clip Resistance Bands System with 4 D.G.S. anti-snap exercise tubes and Heavy Duty components (Sports)
The bands were way more than i was hoping for. Compared to other workout bands in the market these bodylastics bands are clearly on a class of their own. From the surgical grade rubber tubing, the high quality metal clips and all the other attachments. These guys here really paid attention to detail in every conceivable way. the metal clips even have an engraved number of the weight/tension that particular band is. Bottom line these things do what they advertise in that they will replace your whole gym. If you did your research on them, bands are really a great way of working out because they work quite differently than free weights or machines as they are gravity bound. These bands use the resistance of the rubber tubing to generate tension and so the more you pull, the higher the resistance and all that tension is put at the "top" of that repetition as opposed to weights where the work is pretty much done once your actually at the end of that repetition motion. You'll know what I'm talking about once you start training with these bands. Also if you're on the P90X workout, the basic set is all you need no matter how strong you are believe me! If you really are super strong and you need more bands, just go to[.]and you can order heavier individual bands for very cheap (like for the price of a 5 lbs. dumbbell) Hope this was helpful!

This review is from: Bodylastics 11 pcs *BASIC TENSION (88 lbs.) Quick-Clip Resistance Bands System with 4 D.G.S. anti-snap exercise tubes and Heavy Duty components (Sports)
Very nice product.I was thinking about purchasing the "Tower 200" but saw this set with the [black band] for
around $70.00. It will do every thing the tower will do and save you $140.00.It comes with a bag so its completely portable. The bands come with nice aluminum clips that allow quick and easy hook ups. The handles are wrapped in high density foam. Each handle comes with a steel attachment ring. The door anchor is large and very secure . Resistance levels will keep even old python arms happy. If you are in the older crowd the bands for you too. They are very easy on the joints. I'm in my late forties and think that I will be able to use these bands for years. I think resistance bands are the way to go! If you looking for something to help you get in shape and stay in shape that's easy to use and won't drain you bank account then Bodylastics are for you.

These bands have a very quality look and feel. The attachment systems are metal and much better than the ones you can get at local sporting good stores. Unfortunately, one of the bands snapped on me which is why I'm returning my set. I disagree strongly with the "GREAT FOR USE WITH P90X" statement in the description. I came across several compatibility issues when using these bands with P90X. Firstly, the program moves quickly and you will need to pause after every exercise to setup the correct bands on the handles or move from the floor to the door anchor which can break your routine and get annoying quickly. Secondly, I know one of the features is the adjustability of the band weights by combining several bands but combined with the first issue and the need to create sets of bands for each exercise is painful. Thirdly, the carabiner system used to attach multiple bands to the handles creates a large section that is not elastic ie. handle + nylon handle strap + metal ring + carabiner + nylon elastic holder. This is not ideal for several exercises that require sitting or bending. There simply isn't enough elastic band to make these exercises work. If you are going to follow the exercises in the included booklet these should be great as long as they don't snap.
