10 Fears about doing Partner Attached Resistance Band Training put to rest once and for all

Fear #1: I am concerned that my clients will get injured running in bands
Injuries can happen but typically it is a result of poor planning and teaching not poor execution. Solution A: All running drills should be preceded by walking or single step drills like lunges, step-reach or upper torso RBT exercises. Clients must be placed in a situation they can control and experience success with initially. Always have clients do simple lunges in the bands 1 to 2 times before running or walking drills are brought into the workout. This not only allows clients to acclimate to the resistance that comes with training in bands but will also allow the holding partner to learn what they need to do to effective hold for their partner. Solution B: Always have clients do the running out or acceleration phase of the running drill first by instructing them to run out fast but walk back controlled. As they become more comfortable with returning they will naturally allow themselves to increase their speed during that phase of the drill. This is why we created the Continuous 2 Minute Workout. Solution C: Always put new members in small red or black bands the first time so they can learn the drills without being over loaded with resistance. This same principle is used with any beginner type exercise program. Training with bands should be no different.

Fear #2: It is too difficult to quickly teach my entire 40 member camp on how to work out in bands
How do you teach body weight, dumbbells, kettlebells or medicine balls exercises?? Solution A: Try to have all clients do running drills together so you can monitor everyone at one time. Essentially holding is a slam dunk once you are accurately instructed how to manage this. Therefore instructors are really only concerned with half the group. Assuming you had them acclimate themselves in the bands using lunges and walking first, you should easily be able to teach 30 people or 15 clients at one time, how to perform locomotion drills or any other lower or upper torso drill. Solution B: Start with stationary drills first. Lunges, pushes, pulls or marching are all easy drills to perform and increase intensity with by adding time or speed.

Fear #3: In order to train my entire group I will need to buy a lot of bands.

A kettlebell, medicine ball, dumbbell or simple rope all cost money. Considering none of those tools can be used to train all aspects of fitness including flexibility, cardio, upper torso strength, lower torso strength, agility, speed, power and metabolic conditioning; RBT is really your one stop shop when it comes to a total boot camp workout. Now considering a typical band cost $12-$22 and when used successfully will last 2-3 years, you are talking pennies per workout. Solution A: To effectively incorporate RBT into large groups and avoid breaking the bank, purchase enough bands to train one-third of your class. (Example- 24 clients you will need 8 bands). I suggest purchasing 4 purple (1 1/8 inch) bands and 4 black (15/16 inch) bands for total cost of $150 or less than $6.25/client

Train one-third of your group in running drills while one third does upper torso dominate body weight drills and one third does lower torso dominate body weight drills. Than rotate every 5 minutes using the 30-5-30 Interval Sequence. Every time they return to the bands station teach them a different running drill. This will allow for RBT success, easy instruction and minimal upfront cost.

Solution B: Have clients purchase their own Band Boot Camp Package. You can promote it as a way to train on off days and during travel. It will create a way to over deliver while saving you the overhead. First time clients can use your bands the first time so you can still easily do your free trials. But once they are training with everyone and see the versatility with bands, you will become a RBT passive income affiliate.

Fear #4: Clients (especially females) find the band around their hips to be uncomfortable
Using a thin band like the Red or Black band can be uncomfortable or feel like it cuts into your waist. However you also must remember that holding kettlebells over your head or carrying sandbag on your shoulders can also be uncomfortable. It can easily be overcome with this modification

Solution A: Link 2 purple bands onto a black band. This set up allows the purple bands which are wider and more comfortable to be placed around the hips versus the thin black band. Keep in mind the smaller band is going to take more of the pressure so keep distance of movement at 4 to 5 yards.

Solution B: Have the client (or yourself) bring a wide belt along to camp and attach the band onto the belt and then attach the belt to the client. Make sure the belt is loosely fit so it will not pinch the soft tissues of the hip and make it easier to slide around their waist when changing directions. Once strong enough to move up to purple bands, it usually becomes a nonissue.

www.resistancebandtraining.com __________________________________ Fear #5: Links become too tight and I cant get bands apart

This occurs if the clients are running out to far or the clients are to strong for the band set-up. Solution A: Clients that are running out to far need to be put into a stronger band setup. This can be done by taking them up to the next level band or adding a second same size band set-up to what they are already using.

Solution B: Set distance parameters by using lines on the floor like in a gymnasium, cones or simply putting tape on the floor. Having visual guidelines will also make clients work harder knowing what the goal is.

Solution C: Have clients take bands apart and they will identify that they were running to far and make adjustments next time or request a stronger band set-up.

Fear #6: Holding is too hard for clients to do


Holding can be a challenge at first but it really comes down to leverage which is one of key principles of RBT. Holding effectively comes down to 2 issues. Base of support and keep bands close to your center of gravity. Many trainers have holders hold the band in their hands with fully extended arms. This is not a good strategy because it will create too long of a lever arm which in turn creates too much variance in resistance. Here is how you correct this issue.

Solution A: With running or lower torso strengthening drills always make clients stand in the frontal plane or sideways to their running partner. Individuals are much more stable and can create greater leverage when in the frontal plane

Solution B: For upper torso training drills, always have holder face away from training client and use a staggered stance hip hold. The staggered stance creates optimal base

of support for maximum leverage with minimal effort while placing the force of the hold near a persons center of gravity.

Fear #7: I am not sure I can always team participants up evenly


Creating partnerships is really very easy and often is done for you after a couple of workouts. What often happens is people begin to form friendships and subsequently start to create their own partnerships. All you need to do is have the bands ready to go. Solutions for Teaming up Partners: As you are going through your warm-up process count how many participants you have in camp. Assuming it is an even number; let people know you are going to be forming 2 person teams. Often this will get them thinking and half your job is done. I always access my camp members for teams based on the following hierarchy 1. hip height, 2. body size 3. strength levels This is the criteria I will use to pair up individuals. Once teamed up make sure you have the exercises organized along with the band setups ready. This will allow you to focus exclusively on the group and not have to worry about getting bands set-up.

Fear #8: How do I handle an odd number of people?


Obviously a partnership takes 2 individuals to form. However we dont always have an even number of campers. No problems here.

Solution A: I always make sure I create 1 individual station in case I have an odd number. This is a great way to assist a camp member who: 1. 2. 3. 4. May be a newer member Coming off an injury Is significantly weaker than anyone else Is having a special day like a birthday or anniversary and you want to single them out.

Fear #9: I am not sure I can handle introducing a new camp member to team training efficiently
Incorporating a new camp member into a more experience camp is easy with RBT. The only concern you should have as an instructor is how to make the first day extremely successful. If you can accomplish that, they will always come back. Solution A: I will always team up a new member with a class member who I have previously discussed helping me out with these situations. In my case my wife is in every class and I will often use her for new female members. I have a gentleman who loves to teach others and is good at it so I have approved this with him when it comes to new male members. Solution B: In conjunction with part A, it is always good to have the new person go second so they can watch and listen first. By going second it will allow them to learn with less stress and use all their senses to speed up the learning curve.

Fear #10: I am not sure I can teach the drills successfully and safely to beginners

How did you learn to use kettlebells, body weight, medicine balls or dumbbells?? Chances are you taught yourself. Well RBT is no different. Solution A: Teach yourself first. Take 2 weeks and workout with bands regularly. Concentrate on how you can cue members on the drill. Things like hand position, transitions, how to hold, and what sequence of exercises work best are things you should get comfortable with.

Solution B: Learn by starting with easier exercises like, stationary pushing and pulling. RBT lunges and squats are always easy to get started with as well.
