These fabric booty bands will give you a solid lower-body workout
You can actually work your glutes in only a few minutes with these $15 bands.
If you’re a distance runner or other type of cardio junkie, chances are you have a hard time getting enthused about strength training. But ask just about any fitness trainer or exercise specialist and they’ll tell you how important it is for preventing injuries that can sideline you from your preferred main activity, especially as you get older.
Your glute muscles, which include the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and the gluteus minimus (AKA your butt muscles), are the biggest and one of the most important muscle groups that need to maintain strength. Weak glutes often contribute to common running injuries like Achilles tendinitis, runner’s knee, and iliotibial band syndrome.
Fortunately, you don’t need a gym membership and a strong commitment to an intimidating weight machine to build and maintain glue strength.
You can narrow down your options by making sure to look for a few things.
1.Bands that are made of thick material to provide lasting quality.
2.You also want bands that offer a large enough resistance to challenge your butt muscles and are a small looped band that slips over your knees so that you don’t have to double over and tie them in a loop.
3.Finally, you want to make sure you find bands that are a reasonable price since you will eventually have to replace them — even the best quality ones shouldn’t break the bank.
