Evaluation
We have spent a fair amount of time on reviewing various types of home exercise equipment that range both in price and capabilities. We like to try and find ones that are compact or portable as well as affordable. Yet at the same time will live up to their expectations. Some that we have talked about do this, while others don’t. In the past we talked about an exercise offering called Rubberbanditz. The concept of this is very similar to the Bandu.Rubberbanditz focused on the quality of their bands being durable. They also were intent on offering good instructions for the use of bands for resistance exercise. Where the big difference takes place between Rubberbanditz and Bandu is the pricing. Rubberbanditz focuses on charging specific prices for the different sized bands. Bandu includes a whole system which includes Bandu cups,bands,advanced strength bands,workout DVD, and a nutrition guide with recipes.
Final Bandu Review
We are going to give the Bandu a Thumbs Up rating even though it appears to be a new product to hit the market without much feedback as yet. Our research regarding band fitness exercising shows it seems to be popular, and a lot of people like the results that they get from it. We feel that perhaps Bandu would be a great starter program for this type of exercise. Once you mastered the bands that come with the unit you can always scale up to heavier bands that you can buy individually to be used outside of the Bandu unit.
Our Recommendation
If you are just starting into exercise, it is always a good idea to start slow and work your way up in duration and intensity.
