Using Resistance Bands To Help Improve Acceleration

(LosAngeles.CityRegions.Com, May 11, 2015 ) Los Angeles, California -- Fitness gyms from all places in the world all have resistance bands. However, not all athletes are using the tension bands. Chris Moal, CEO of sports tool distribution company Trained Sports, says that fitness enthusiasts who are not using resistance bands is not taking full advantage of modern tools available.

There are already a lot of men who are showing off their bulky muscles and using the bands. Moal also says that scientific research has a way to prove the advantage of the bands.

According to Moal, a study investigated on the effects of using resistance bands together with free weight barbells as an athlete bench-pressed. The researchers investigated on the acceleration-deceleration and velocity profiles of the athletes as they are bench-pressing. The various conditions were then measured while an athlete is bench-pressing a loaded barbell and compared this when the athlete does the same but with an added resistance band.

The results revealed that if resistance bands were incorporated with the barbell, athletes improved significantly their acceleration. According to the results, the athletes improved their acceleration by 13 – 35 percent. Maximal velocity was also found to have significantly increased with the additional resistance band.

The study concluded that barbell bench-pressing when done with resistance bands can evenly distribute the range of motion resulting to an improved acceleration, Moal says. "This means that the athletes improved their speeds and that they did so for a longer time. This advantage is essential for sports such as rugby because players need to have explosive power and high strength levels."

Trained Sports Resistance Bands are exclusively sold on Amazon. The tension bands some with different tension levels to choose from and can be used by users of various fitness levels. To add more challenge into a workout, more than one band can be used.
