ABOUT "FLEX BAND RESISTANCE"
UNLIKE
WEIGHT
STACK
SYSTEMS,
FLEX
BAND
SYSTEMS
GIVE
PROGRESSIVELY
INCREASING
RESISTANCE.
AT
THE
BEGINNING
OF
THE
MOVEMENT,
THERE
IS
VERY
LITTLE
RESISTANCE,
BUT
BUILDS
TO
THE
MAXIMUM
RESISTANCE
OF
THE
SETTING
AT
THE
END
OF
THE
MOVEMENT.
ALSO,
BECAUSE
OF
STRETCHING
AND
AGING
OF
THE
BANDS,
THEY
MAY
GENERALLY
LOSE
RESISTANCE
OVER
A
PERIOD
OF
TIME.
WITH
NORMAL
USE
AND
CARE,
YOUR
BANDS
WILL
LAST
A
LONG
TIME,
HOWEVER,
CARE
SHOULD
BE
TAKEN
TO
NOT
MISUSE
OR
OVER
STRETCH THEM.
HOW
TO
USE
EACH
EXERCISE
