SERIOUS STEEL FITNESS12 inch Resistance Band | Deadlift Band | Hip Band | Glute Activation and Dynamic Warm Up Band

I bought the set of three bands, and I really love them. I use all of them in a variety of different workouts. I train at the gym a lot and I'm experienced in using resistance bands for hip stability/strength training.Here are my best tips for using the bands:The PURPLE band offers a good amount of resistance when it is wrapped around ankles. It is suitable for lying down hip abduction, and other on-the-floor exercises. It is also good for monster walks (band around ankles).The RED band is best used above knees, for standing up exercises such as one-leg Romanian deadlift, or weighted squats. It is also suitable for reverse flutter kicks when lying on your stomach (glutes), and offers more challenge in monster walks (band above knees)The BLUE band is heavy duty, and it is best above knees in hip thrusts, both off the ground and with your back on a bench. It also offers an optimal challenge when doing unweighted or light squats, and can therefore be used for warmup before heavier sets.Overall, these bands are all you need for effective hip and glute strength/stability training. The durability and resistance is much better than the 5-band sets on Amazon (as these bands are thinner), hence the higher price. I would recommend this for someone who already has some experience of resistance bands and is looking for more challenge.The assume that the green band must be very heavyweight. I have one heavier band from another manufacturer, and I barely use it, except for unweighted hip thrusts. The resistance is too high to use for other types of exercises.

Serious Steel is my go to for bands. My deadlift bands I bought months ago are still looking good. These bands work well for glute bridges

These work great. This brand makes reliable bands, I've been using them for almost 5 years.

Got the 12 inch BIG green one. I was looking for something like my gym has abs it looked good and thick. I didn’t realize it would be too good for me lol. Hopefully gonna work into this band. Very strong, thick and definitely like the gym brand, only more resistance as I can barely move it lol. But like I said im gonna work toward being able to actually use it. Gonna purchase the next size down, as the quality is unsurpassed compared to the other flimsy ones i tried buying. Definitely a good strong product

I ordered 4 more of these bands after testing the first 2. These bands were perfect for hanging 25/35 lbs plates from the bamboo bar. I did a double sling on the 35’s because I didn’t want to over stress the material but it provided a nice amount of bounce and instability which is what you want from the bamboo bar. Would recommend for this use. I will be ordering one more size up for the 45’s but I don’t typically use that plate for bamboo, rather I typically just hang more members(pair of 25’s) multiple members increase instability in the exercise. Will upload photos tomorrow to help everyone understand what this looks like.

I started consistently going to the gym and weight training in Jan. 2016 and at first I was using the very basic, super flimsy/skinny resistance bands that you can pretty much buy anywhere. They're good for beginners, but if you're really looking for good glute/ham/quad activation, you're going to need something a lot stronger that also won't snap on you. I did a lot of research and finally bought this band. OH MY GOD! I totally overestimated my strength! lol This band is super high quality and has incredible resistance, it's literally like an band you would use for assisted pull-ups, but much smaller, so that you can loop it around your ankles. I would recommend starting with the lightest one and working your way up. I additionally purchased the other lighter bands to incorporate into my glute wokrout and can't wait to see the booty gains! Great for: glute kickbacks, side clams, leg raises, side steps, wall sits, powerlifting, etc. It also helps if you have trouble keeping your knees turned out while doing squats, because with the band around your knees, you have to make a conscious effort to push them out.

I have been searching for some thick bands to replace some i got from my local gym! I have had a hard time finding some on amazon. I am so happy i came across these. The exercises i do require bands to go around my feet as i stand. So, i am so happy these are not flimsy. They are a bit expensive, but they are worth it.

Not what I expected. Having just done physical therapy, they had a soft-gel like band but was firmer than some of the super thin bands. This is very firm but not gel like at all. Don't use it as often as I should because it's not comfortable against skin.

I got the blue resistance band! Freaking love it!! The warm up with that feels like a hardcore workout Lol my behind actually hurts and I feel it right away. Ive done a lot of squats and even used the barbell to squat with but this band is no joke. Love it, thank you!!

Serious steel are great bands, quality and range are fantastic

Good quality and a great addition to my home gym! I purchased both the purple and the red band hoping to purchase more!Jill 🇨🇦

Bought these as I needed more resistance in my bands. They are exactly what I was looking for. Very challenging and will be a while until I can work up to using the blue band. Happy with my purchase.

Les élastiques sont de très bonne qualité, solides et rigides, pas de risque de déchirure.Super pratique pour mettre dans le sac et les amener n’importe où.
