Before we get to the exercises let me tell you what kind of resistance tube bands I like to use for my workouts:

MY FAVORITE BAND FOR DOING RESISTANCE TUBE EXERCISES

This resistance tube is ideal for exercising at home, in the gym, or on the go. It comes with a door anchor which you can use to quickly secure at any point along with a door frame, which gives you many more exercise options.

The foam handles make it super comfortable to use and it’s available in three strengths – from light to heavy.

4 RESISTANCE TUBE EXERCISES FOR CHEST

#1 CHEST PRESS

Stand facing away from the door with the anchor secured at mid-height. Get into a solid stance with one foot forward, holding the handles at shoulder level with some tension in the band. Push both handles forward until your arms are fully extended.

#2 CHEST FLY

With the band secured around chest height, stand facing away from the door and hold the handles with your arms splayed outwards. Now stretch the band by bringing your hands together at your centreline without bending your arms.

#3 INCLINE CHEST PRESS

You can either step in the middle of the band, as shown or use the door anchor to secure the band low down behind you. Then do the same movement as in the chest press, except this time pushing your hands forward and up. This will make greater use of your upper pectoral muscles.

#4 ASSISTED DIP

Hold the handles and the dip bar together and then put your knees over the band. Now you can

perform dips which are easier than normal. If you’re already good at dips, you can sling the band over your shoulders which will make the movement harder.
