Resistance bands are the ultimate piece of exercise equipment, and an underrated piece of every fitness enthusiast's arsenal. You can squat with them during an at-home LIT Method workout or bring them to your next in-person barre class. A resistance-band set is more affordable than buying a large workout machine, easy to store or travel with, and amazingly versatile. You may think of them primarily as a way to work your booty, but resistance bands can also be utilized to target your legs, arms, and abs.
Not to mention, resistance bands come in a range of materials and sizes. For example, there are sturdy resistance bands made specifically for your legs so that the band won't break or roll while you squat and large-loop bands to help you master pull-ups. There are also resistance bands with handles so you can still get a challenging strength workout without needing to use dumbbells.
The best part of using resistance bands is that a set can easily fit in your gym bag or suitcase, making it easy to work out virtually anywhere. To make your search for a set of resistance bands a breeze, we've rounded up 10 of the best resistance bands on Amazon from $8 to $50. Keep reading to shop our picks, including the coveted Bodylastics resistance bands.
