Review on Optimal Portzon Resistance Loop Exercise Bands for Effective Arm 💪 and Leg Stretching, Strength Training, Muscle Recovery, Deep Squats, and Pilates by Matthew Sutton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cheap little portable gym

These are exactly as advertised, literally large rubber bands. They smell like rubber bands, or balloons. The smell gets stronger when they’re used. I don’t expect them to last very long, particularly when they inevitably get any oil on them, like the small amount of oil that occurs naturally on skin, or in moisturizer. Oil destroys latex. Then they’ll snap. Hopefully I’ll notice that they’re breaking down before they snap in my face.That said, they do work, and are much easier to carry and store than weights. They come with a convenient little black fabric drawstring bag, that can fit in my hand, and a little pamphlet of many clearly-illustrated exercises that can also fit in the bag.The exercises feel challenging and effective. There’s a lot of room to customize your workout, choosing different exercises, different numbers of reps, and different levels of resistance. You could even double up the bands to get more resistance. This is a cheap little portable gym.

Pros
  • 😊
Cons
  • The bands may need to be readjusted frequently during workouts
