This app focuses on exercising using resistance bands and includes other creative bodyweight exercises. Resistance bands offer many advantages other than being extremely portable and convenient. The mechanical advantage of these bands is that resistance is held through every part of the movement - compared to free weights that often do not stimulate the muscle during certain parts of the motion.
