INTRODUCTION
GETTING STARTED
Below you will find a number of exercises which you can get started with straight away and which work the whole body. Unless you have bought these bands on the recommendation of a physiotherapist or personal trainer who has already given you a program to follow we would suggest you start as follows.
For each of the exercises listed do 5 reps (which means 5 repetitions) of each exercise for both sides of your body. Start with the lowest resistance level and increase if you feel that it is too easy for you. You may initially wish to do 1 round of these exercises but gradually increase the number of rounds as you feel your body strengthen.
