Booty bands are resistance bands worn around the thighs, calves, and ankles. They increase lower-body muscle activation during free weight exercises or add resistance to bodyweight exercises such as squats, lunges, kicks, and side steps.

It does this by creating more resistance near the point of muscle contraction. Therefore, students do not have to rely on the core to stabilise the body, potentially strengthening the glutes and hamstrings during exercises that do not require a back brace or under a squat machine.  

How Does Booty a Band Work?

The effect of booty bands on the resistance is dependent on their size. The smaller or shorter band usually provides lower resistance than larger or longer ones. The resistance of booty bands is also reliant on the number of reps performed

The use of booty bands also increases muscle activity of the glutes during the side step and forward lunge, allowing a more excellent range of motion during exercises such as the squat, lunge, and sideways lunges.

How to Use a Booty Band?

1. You Can Use Your Booty Band for Exercises on Lower Body Weight

2. You Can Use Your Booty Band for Upper Body Exercises

Latex rubber booty bands are great for providing support during upper body exercises, especially if you're recovering from an injury or have limited core strength. The booty bands support your glutes and legs during barbell lifts, row exercises, and more.

Fabric booty bands make your pushups, handstand pushups, and other upper-body exercises stronger by adding resistance to your chest, shoulders, and triceps on activities such as pushups.
