Small set of equipment with great potential
Delivery was very Prompt. The compact packing made dent marks on couple of bands, but didn’t do any harm.In the box :- Two soft foam Handles- One Door Anchor- Two foot straps- 5 different strength resistance bands with snap hooks on both ends.- Carry bagAll the items mentioned above, comes compactly packed in the carry bag. Lets have a look at each item in the pack.Two handles :These are well made with hollow plastic that are very light and strong. This makes it very easy for movement, when you are pulling up or side ways. Ideal for Bicep Curls or Lateral raises. The plastic handles are covered with soft cushion making it comfortable to hold and also ensure doesn’t slip when you have sweaty palms. Both the handles have a d-ring attached to hook the resistance bands. D-ring is big enough to have all the 5 resistance bands attached at the same time, if you are into heavy weights.Door Anchor :This one is a thick soft cushion roll with attached d-ring. I used this anchor on top, bottom and on the side for various exercises like triceps extensions, standing wood chop etc., Very reliable with any standard UK door frames.Two Foot straps:These fits very well to any ankle I guess. I used these to perform leg exercises such as kick backs and inner thigh exercises such as standing adduction and lying adduction. I used my stair case newel at the base as the pole, used one end of the foot strap to strap around the newel. Works perfect.Alternatively you can use the door anchor with the foot straps for most of the exercise.Bands :Bands range from 10lb to 50lb. All 5 bands comes with well made snap hooks on both ends of the band. All the bands are labeled with the strength as shown in attached pictures. I have used these for one week (Three sessions) so far and they are as strong as they were in the beginning. No tears or rips so far. I only used three bands together for few exercises which felt like really strong resistance.Carry bag:Its a small bag, that can fit in all the rest of the package easily into it. This sits in nicely within my gym bag, doesn’t take up too much of space.I have also tried the bands in the gym in one of my routine that included machines. They make good complimentary equipment, especially when the gym equipment is constantly on demand, you can get on with the routine with not much waiting. For example, I used the handle bars from the gym to hook up with the bands and performed some of the tricep exercises.There’s a lot of combinations that are possible with this small set of bands. I would strongly recommend maintaining a diary and recording your routine, band strength, setup etc., so that you have good log of what your training contained. Could serve as a guide for later.So far, I loved performing exercises for biceps, triceps, shoulders, chest, legs. Overall, a great small set of equipment that can be used anywhere, anytime.Highly recommend it.What can be made better?1. I would probably love a longer handle bar that can be used with both hands. That may compromise the compact packing aspect, but could increase the number of exercises you can perform with the bands.2. Labeling of the strength could be on both sides of the bands. This is not a must but can make it more comfortable to not checking which end has got the label. To be fair, after using it for a week, I can remember which one is which, by the color, but some may prefer labels.

Easy to use, good for home workouts
I found this product really easy to use and really effective for home workouts as I do not have any home equipment myself! Each of the five cables clearly shows how much resistance/'weight' it has and can be added on top of each other to create various/harder resistances. I did find however sometimes it was difficult to change the resistance cables if I was moving from one exercise to another which had a different resistance level, but this did not negatively impact my circuit overall. Good quality of the handle grips and the ankle straps! I managed to do both various upper and lower body exercises. Really impressed with the product and will be looking to take it with me on holiday as its super packable and light.

Great quality for the price
So impressed with this set of resistance bands! Really good quality for the price. Also love that it comes with the handles etc to use. Really great equipment for home workouts as the handles and resistance bands can be connected to anything that is stable. Resistance bands range in strength from 30lbs to 50lbs!! So there’s something for all abilities! I would really recommend these bands.

Cracking set
I’m really enjoying exploring this set. You get 5 different bands with the hooks at the end allowing you a variety of different resistances. I find these much more natural to use than the thinner rubber bands, especially with the inclusion of the handles that you can use. With the handles it’s excellent for pulling expertises such as bicep curls. It’s a pretty comprehensive set with different attachments and a handy carry bag if you’re taking these on your travels or even to a gym. It’s worth. Considering such a set if you want some a bit more comprehensive and at just under £30 it’s not bad value for money either.

POOR
I'm a big fan of Dip and Pullup and highly rate most of their products - but those band are the exception. They are poor and feel like no resistance- 25kg(?) - band (really?) feels easier than my old 9lbs band. POOR.
