TRX Suspension / Resistance Bands

sbl1881

Hi,

I belong to a boxing studio and while they do have free weights, the area is really small and it's difficult to get in there and lift weights. I was looking to purchase a suspension system and resistance band set for home. They're less expensive together than getting a set of free weights. Does anyone else use these? Can you tone/get some definition using these 3x week? I'm not looking to lift heavy weights and bulk, more just to tone while I lose my last 20 lbs (I'm 5'2, 141 now).

Thanks for your input!!

I have a suspension kit. If u get one with a door hanger u can use them safely with a closed door. They are great for bodyweight exercises and of u get a decent book/videos on the Internet u can work all areas of ur body.

There are a lot of good upper body exercises, but it's a struggle to find enough resistance using suspension training for the lower body. Also don't worry about "bulking up". There is literally nothing you could do to bulk up while you're eating to lose weight. Literally nothing.
