Mini-Bands from Perform Better

$7.50 each or 10 for $60

www.danbakerstrength.com now sells the blue (medium strength) Mini-bands from Perform Better. These great little bands are used to activate and train some of the smaller or neglected muscles that are still critically important for efficient movement and function.

Below are some of the exercises that we use with athletes ~ these are typically done in the functional warm-up before heavy lifting or running training or in an additional, short (eg. 4-6 minute) “rehab or prehab” unit performed on non-lifting days.
