Resistance Band Advent Calendar (2nd teaser)

Just a quick reminder that in the 1st of December, we will start our very own Resistance Band Advent Calendar Challenge! 📅 🎄

And here in the image is a sneak preview of what the cards look like! 👀

For the 24 days until Christmas, I will use the Stack 52 workout cards to draw by random, one resistance band exercise per day. I will post them here as single posts, counting down to the 24th of December, e.g. until Christmas.  🎄

The challenge is to do every single exercise as we count down to Christmas. But as we are doing only one card per day, it should be quite doable, taking maybe only 5-10 minutes every day. ⏲️

It should allow us to explore different exercises as we move through the month. And I will also post the link to the demonstration video that comes with every card! 🎥 I will post always the evening before.  🛌

So get your resistance bands ready and make sure you follow me or drop into our S&F forum here at healthunlocked.com/strength...

We start on 1st December! See you then!

This sounds great. Good way to keep the strength going while the cake is calling

Not sure how much cake resistance we will build up with the resistance bands! 🤣🤣

True enough 😂. Think it might be more offsetting and pre-gobble justification.

I've dug out my bands. Might have to adapt some of the floor work due to my dodgy spine, but I am well up for the challenge 😁

Adaption sounds great! There are some advanced exercises, and they might pop up as well. But I said to myself: rather than filtering out cards, I’d rather adapt the exercise. So I might be joining you in the find-what-resistance-feels-good adaptation team!

thank you 👍😊

I may also have to adapt the exercises because I have only got a couple of bands the physio gave me - not like the one on the cards.

yes, there is quite a wide range of bands in use, isn’t there. I did get another set when we did the James Dunne challenge , but this one ideally needs my original ones, with straps and door stops and handles. We’ll see how we can adapt.
