Train like the pros: Loops and Superloops, also known as minibands and superbands, are closed rubber bands that provide you with the opportunity for a variety of effective, unconventional exercises. In professional sports, such as soccer, these bands—available at a low cost in different resistance levels—have been in use for some time. In this book, you will find over 50 exercises for athletes and active patients aimed at strengthening arms, legs, and muscle chains, as well as stabilizing the core. Trainers and therapists can use the bands flexibly: depending on how they are fixed, movements can be made more difficult or easier, and resistance curves can be altered. You will receive new ideas for a broad, varied, and effective training regimen. Each exercise is clearly described and well illustrated.
