Susannah’s favourite theraband exercises
Longevity Exercise Physiology Drummoyne,Edgecliff, Marrickville,Bella Vista, Randwick, Lindfield and Balmain frequently get asked about exercising at home! Susannah shares her favourite home-based theraband exercises in today’s blog!
Therabands are a fantastic way to get a great workout in without the need for gym equipment. They are small and compact, come in varying lengths and thicknesses and can be used to replicate almost any exercise that you could complete in a gym. Whether you are using a theraband to rehabilitate an injury, or simply wanting a program to complete at home, the humble theraband has you covered. Theraband exercises can be used to complete all types of exercises – upper and lower body, and core exercises.
Given the way this year has unfolded with COVID and lockdowns, many people have opted to exercise at home so I would definitely recommend having a theraband on hand at home – you never know when you’re going to need it! I recommend performing 10-15 repetitions for 2-3 sets, based on your fitness level.
1. Crab walking
2. Squats
3. Band pullaparts
4. Banded rows
5. Tricep extension
This is only a small list of exercises that are possible, and like any exercise there is always a way to modify it to suit your needs. Speak to your exercise physiologist who can tailor a theraband program for you.
