I have really enjoyed working with the resistance bands this week. I used these a lot when I played sports and was in physical therapy for my shoulder in high school. The bands really make the exercises more challenging and I can also feel them more intensely. It is really interesting that by just adding a band to a lot of the exercises the results and effects of the exercises change. I felt that the exercises this week were very challenging and definitely toned me which is really good because I have not been able to get to the AFC very much this week since I have had a lot of work and papers due recently.

I felt a lot of the exercises that we did this week in my abs, shoulders, and back. We did crunches with the bands, laid back with upperback and legs in the air while holding the band, arm raises with the band under our knees, and walked with the band tied tightly around out ankles. I can't remember many of the other exercises but I really enjoyed using the resistance bands and now have some new ideas on how to use the one that I have in my apartment!
