IYCA Band Workouts…

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

I love to travel with my Great Friend BJ Gaddour of www.Workoutmuse.com.

Not only do we have tons of laughs.. I learn a ton from one of the top bootcamp fitness professionals

and nutritionist in the world.

Recently BJ and I traveled to the first annual IYCA International Summit.

Brian Grasso, Nick Berry and Pat Rigsby who are the brain thrust behind the IYCA

know how to put on a amazing summit filled without standing speakers and an energy that transcended the entire weekend.

BJ and I invited all 200 plus attendees to join us for a RBT bootcamp workout every morning.

I would describe the workouts as…

Electric….Energy….Fun…..Fat Burning…. Friendship Building and  how life should be.

Take a look and enjoy.

Do Your Bands Do this??

Do YOUR bands do this??

100_0298

Why does this happen??

Layered bands are thin individual layers of latex continually wrapped around and layered until the desire thickness is created.   It is than cut and glued down.    The problem is this glue does not always adhere well especially on smaller bands where surface area is less.

Also smaller bands typically get stretched more which challenges the band structurally and can lead to peeling.

Can this be eliminated??

That is exactly what I asked over 1 year ago while designing a new band.

The answer ….YES!!

“The BAND” by Performax which is the exclusive band of www.resistancebandtraining.com uses a technique called “latex welding” to adhere that final end back down onto the band.  By welding the end of the final layered back down onto the band it has eliminated peeling.

In the past 7 months that “The BAND” has been on the market I have had zero bands returned for fraying.

Problem Solved!!

If you have issues with fraying no problem…  I have the solution.

Buy all your bands with latex welding which to my knowledge you will only find at
