Resistance Cord with Door Attachment

Thank you

Works great! Door attachment seems very convenient, but I haven't tried it out yet.

I was hesitant at first because I really wasn’t sure how many things I could do with this and I was frankly a little terrified of it snapping and hurting me! Thankfully I was wrong to be so skeptical. This is a great resistance band! Versatile and sturdy. Makes it hard to make excuses when you can put it almost anywhere and do some quick work. It is simple but very effective!

I am "older" and no longer in my prime, but still need to do some workouts to keep the body going.I like the ability to do a variety of upper body exercises with them using the door attachment. The trick is reading the instructions and putting it on the correct side of the door <g>. I had it on the latch side and it kept slipping out and finally, I read the directions which say to put it on the hinge side. Duh.... works much better that way!I mainly need to work my IT band and glutes. I emailed Gaiam and asked for recommendations on using the bands for this and Brittany responded quickly with a good idea! "... stand on the tube in the moderate stance, then step either right or left to make the wide stance, then step that same direction to go back into the moderate stance - almost like you're crab walking sideways..."I also need to do resistance with forward and backward and still working on how to do that - with the door attachment maybe?And in the meantime, I'm getting the upper body worked on as well.The bands seem durable, the handles are comfortable to hold and even though they're medium resistance, it's not too difficult for starting out.

This a decent overall resistance cord. nothing I would rave about, but the quality is good enough to last a while with regular use. The rubber isn't cheap, and doesn't feel likely to stretch or break in time. The handles are a comfortable soft padded grip. The included door attachment is helpful, depending on your door. Ideally should be a strong door with the three hinges, places either directly above or below the middle hinge for the least amount of stress on the frame. The nylon material on the door attachment feels strong, and the stitching is done well.If you are only looking for one resistance level, this product makes sense. But if you want all three levels of resistance, I would recommend buying a set that has a one pair of handles, with interchangeable bands. It will cost you less money in the end, and will take us less space only having one pair of handles rather than three. This is a good product. Not outstanding, but not poor quality.

Gaiam does it again with a convenient and versatile way to entice and encourage physical fitness for those that may not have the space or time to squeeze in a bit of activity that is an essential part of one’s health. As with their jump rope, their resistance cord offers the flexibility to bend and stretch in numerous positions from light to heavy resistance. It is simple to work with and includes a door attachment to pursue the different positions. With its non-slip grips and stretchable cords, the most practical way to emphasize in particular areas of the body from the arms, body, and legs.

This is a great resistance cord. It's well designed using natural latex. And there is an included door plug so that you can set up a variety of positions.There are some basic instructions and exercises included in the notes. The only thing that is missing is a carrying case for the door attachment and resistance cord. This is such an ideal tool to take with you when traveling, that seems like a pretty big oversight.I tried the medium resistance cable but plan to get several cables of greater resistance.

The Gaiam Resistance Cord with Door Attachment is a good exercise cord.I only have one reservation about this cord's longevity in that the cord has a smooth or shiny texture to it. All of my other exercise resistance band cords have a dull/matte or rubbery texture...this shiny and smooth texture makes me think this won't last. But, all in all, this is a good cord.
