No snapping, bunching up, or rolling down.
tells SELF. That means you’re spending more time fiddling with the band than getting in the zone, which is key for band-based exercises that work smaller butt muscles and rely on significant mind-muscle connection. Plus a bunched-up band means the resistance isn’t spread out like it should be, which can further reduce the effectiveness of the exercises.
What’s more, simply putting a mini-band on in the first place can be very challenging for people with larger bodies as well as those with bodies of different abilities, Summers says. That’s because people often have to shimmy the bands onto their bodies, and that can cause a lot of discomfort as the band digs into their thighs. “The band rolls up and becomes very small and tight around the thighs,” Summers adds.
It’s also worth noting that a band doesn’t even have to be a mini-band to serve the purpose of one. “If someone is in a much larger body, I just always use straight bands instead of looped,”, cofounder and head trainer at Body Positive Fitness, tells SELF. Straight bands—which, as we mentioned, are one long piece of material, instead a loop—are more versatile, Doak explains. “In general, the straight bands can be stretched a lot further and therefore used in many different ways,” she says.
