Review on the Lite Body Weights & Bands. I liked it. It's better than her other band workout which I never use even when I travel.Is it a must in my collection...NO! If I travel I don't want to schlepp around, tubing, bands and loops. I also used my tubing for a lot of exercises instead of the bands. For the bands press down, I used my loop instead. My Cathe green bands are tough as nails
I don't think they ever gonna give in.
Diane Sue - how you like the Pyramid workouts? Next time I will pick up heavier weights.
Good night.
