You’ll train four times weekly during the total body workout and five days when you do the PPL, body part, and hybrid split.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can you build muscle with resistance bands only?
Yes, you can build a decent amount of muscle with bands only. Resistance bands are adaptable, efficient, and cost-effective. They provide a full range of motion, allowing you to target specific muscles effectively. However, if you want to get bigger like bodybuilders, consider strength training. (Source)
What type of resistance bands do I need for this workout?
You’ll need a set of resistance bands (light to heavy) with handles to perform strength, muscle-sculpting, balance, and flexibility exercises efficiently.
How do I know if I’m using the right resistance level?
Choose a band where the last 2-3 reps of a set feel challenging but you can maintain good form. For example, if you can easily do 15-20 reps, use a heavier band or increase sets, but if you can’t complete 10 reps with control, switch to a lighter band.
What if I don’t have a door anchor for certain exercises?
A door anchor is a must for training effectively with bands, especially for exercises like standing chest press, lat pulldown, seated row, and pallof press. However, if you don’t have access to the hook or attachment, loop the band around a sturdy object like a pole or heavy furniture.
What happens after the 30 days?
I recommend continuing this routine if it works for you. You can increase resistance, reps, or sets to make it more challenging. You can also include bodyweight and dumbbell exercises to achieve decent results over time.
