"These exercise bands were everywhere when I used to train on the beach in Santa Monica but I never bought them because I didn't see the benefit. Just picked up a calisthenics kit and finally understand the rage. I'm pissed I waited so long and am now playing catch up. Haha."

"Rubberbanditz makes the best resistance bands! My previous cheap resistance bands snapped me in the face when they broke so I did a lot of research and read a lot of reviews before I bought mine."
Jill S. Rubberbanditz Customer
"When I first tried a front lever I couldn’t even pull up my legs up so I watched a bunch of Instagram and YouTube videos and saw a lot of people using rubberbanditz resistance bands for calisthenics. I'm now a proud band owner and can almost muscle-up and hold my tuck front lever on my own."
