Is one of your new years resolutions to tone up, get fit and exercise more? Join the club.
After the influx of food, drink and days in stasis in front of the TV over the Christmas period, many of us end up getting the new year zoomies and feel the need to get fit, like, yesterday.
The only little clincher, however, is just how expensive the gym can be, and let’s not even talk about how cold and grim January is, making it borderline impossible to muster up the energy to leave the house.
The solution? Home workouts, obvs. Whether you’re getting 70s-style physical with a workout DVD or following your own programming, a good, sturdy set of resistance bands is the perfect way to amp up your exercises.
This set of resistance bands from TechStone features five bands at varying resistance levels – from 4.5kg all the way up to 45kg when combined, perfect for novices and experienced gym-goers alike.
They’ve also been made from strong and durable latex designed to withstand years of use, so whether you give up the resolution by February or set life-long habits, you’re assured excellent quality every time you use them.

Boasting over 8,200 five-star reviews with over 2,000 sold in the past month, shoppers can’t get enough of the bands, calling them ‘really effective’ and ‘very durable’.
‘I struggle with shoulder pain when bench pressing, I tried some shoulder stability with this and I can see an improvement already,’ one five-star reviewer wrote.
Another raved the bands are ‘exactly’ what they needed, adding: ‘They appear really good quality, come with a handy bag and excellent instructions. Would certainly recommend.’
‘I would 100 per cent recommend these to anybody, male or female who struggles to find the time to go to the gym or doesn’t have the ideal set up at home,’ one expertly noted.
‘It even comes with a small, detailed booklet of exercises if you’re struggling to come up with your own!’
