#Whatafit #ResistanceBands #Review
The Whatafit Resistance Bands are a simple addition you can use to improve your home workouts. Simply add them to your workout routine to spice things up, provide a new muscle-building stimulus, and build confidence.
Remember, these are to help supplement my home workouts. I do not use them as the only item. I still own adjustable dumbbells, a pull-up and dip bar and a bench with other smaller items. All of them work together to enhance my workouts.
I definitely recommend these if you don't already own a pair of resistance bands. I will be keeping the U-Powex as my go-to, but these are the exact same thing as long as you receive the same ones I did. I know these white-label products could be something you didn't ask for. However, both the U-Powex and Whatafit have shown to be excellent for my home workouts.
Remember, be consistent, eat and recover for energy and always focus on improving. Be fit - game on!

The Whatafit Resistance Bands have held up well so far. However, because they are the exact same as my U-Powex resistance bands I will be using those moving forward. You can see my review here: czcams.com/video/SIUjV56cW3I/video.html
If I understood you correctly, you went back to your U-Powex after testing these as they are the same. If so, you now have roughly a year on the U-Powex. If so, how have they held up?
I actually use the Whatafit over these as they are cheaper and the same thing. Since I want people to save money I'd go with Whatafit.
@@GamerBody Thank You
2:57 Wrong side of door. To be safe when using the anchor install on other side of door (and closer to the hinge) to avoid the risk of the door opening when using heavy resistance. Also less likely to get it jammed causing you to lose your security deposit.
With my bodylastic bands I use the door anchor on the top and bottom of the door as well as the hinge side.
I’m using bands now because your reviews are so good. I’m seeing results pretty quickly. My gamerbody is coming in definitely.
Nice! Are you following the current program on the website or your own?
Just turned 78 on January 1st. I’ve trained in some form consistently for over 50 years: Running, Bodyweight, Olympic Weights, Kettlebells, Lifeline Gym, and HIT ala Mentzer, Yates and other “Hitters”. My daughter gave me a What A Fit Gym two years ago for Christmas. 30-45 min with the WAF bands works me as good and maybe better than anything else I’ve used. The best part is that I can train at home and not have to take time driving to a gym. (I get plenty “socialization” as an entertainer, so I don’t need to hang out at a gym.😉 as well.). If you work these bands, they’ll work you and along with the right diet, you’ll be in the minority of those who are fit and heathy and who enjoy life as it’s meant to be lived. Thanks for the review!
What A Fit bands are worth every penny you spend!
🎶🎤😉👍
Thanks! I'll have to take a look at those bands. Keep up the great work!
I had these for like 2 weeks I think. But then I switched to loop bands and found it to be more convenient and flexible in terms of that I could actually do.
thanks for sharing your expirence , really interesting hope you well .
In Qurantine my mom would always be like “ what’s that noise “ and it was the door hanger/ bands banging against the door ..😂
Thanks man, just bought them thanks to your video. Can't wait for them to arrive.
Awesome! Let me know what you think.
How s it bruh.??
@@alextiger8875 They're great, been using them for almost three weeks now. I've even "double banded" to create more weight, the anchor works fine, and if it matters I feel like they're safer to use than free weights, especially if you have an injury or weak side.
Nicely Done , very helpful !!!!
Thanks!
Gonna get this resistant bands today 💪😎 excited to use them and get creative with exercises hopefully there tough enough to hold up 👌 Good review 👍
Take a look at my most recent setup using the UnderSun Resistance Bands. If you want to use bands, this is how I recommend it: czcams.com/video/bvu4aCptTkU/video.html
@@GamerBody Will do 👍 Thanks for the recommendation
Great review. I bought topolek resistance bands and one of the bands snapped after the second use on the actual rubber ( not where the carabiner is located). Do you think this product is more reliable?
Wow that is really fast. I've never used those bands so I can't compare. Sounds like a bad knockoff though. All I know is that the UPOWEX I have are still going strong and I use them every week.
Thanks for the review! I have a question : is it possible to use a pull up bar as the attachment point instead of a door for exercises such as lat pull downs etc ?
Thank you :)
Yeah just make sure you are pulling the bar into the door frame so it doesn't fall off
@@GamerBody alright, is it still doable if my bar is fixed in my hallway between two walls instead of the doorframe ?
Also since some gyms 🏋️♂️ are open glad the price went down on Amazon for it so very good deal for workout at home 🏡 👌 💪
Hi, thanks for the video. Are you just standing on your bands and doing the exercises? Do you have a video to showcase some of the exercises that can be done with the bands to target specific areas of the body?
I have a few videos where I am using bands. I am standing on them for nearly all exercises I use them for :)
GamerBody thanks for responding. Will check out your other videos.
How do you secure the straps at your feet in order to do upper body work?
I stand on it. However, I now have a platform I use with loop bands and a bar. Check out this video: czcams.com/video/SBSRux0kdG8/video.html
Great video bro! I wanted to order a set of these resistance bands but I figured I can just buy big carabiners and attachments so I can use it with my loop band that I own, you should try it.
That could work! I kind of want it just given to me, but that could also be a fun little project and DIY
*I am planning to order these today.*
Before you do, make sure you take a look at my most recent setup here: czcams.com/video/bvu4aCptTkU/video.html
the ankle straps could be usefull for hamstring curls, they are really killing
Eh, I just never do hamstring curls as they are worked in RDLs which I prefer. However, you are correct if you can get into the position properly.
when you pull the red and green band together, how much is the resistance for those two?
Not sure, technically it is 80lbs if you take the values they provide but it is also variable based on hand placement and tension throughout. I just track with the number listed on them. Red says 50 and green shows 30
My co worker got this brand but his set came w mini loop bands too(16piece set)
Mine is just the 11 piece set. No loop bands in the one I purchased.
You're right. t says SB Sox on the box but no further instructions. Doesn't say whatafit either. They are cheaper though. Just a little instruction in the package would have helpful,
Yeah makes me think it is a standard white label product. While it had lasted it is a bit concerning they didn't actually test it.
Nice I just bought them for $22 usd
You should review the Bob and Brad resistance bands they have very good quality products and a lot of people have good things to say about the bands
Yes this one comes up on the channel quite a bit. Same with the Bodylastics so I'm keeping my eye on them.
Quick Question, do you think these are good to grow the triceps? Obviously you can do tricep exercises with these but would you say these are a good method to growing them effectively just as you would with a cable machine? Cable machine is better obviously but could these do the job? Great video btw
As long as you keep enough tension and stimulus to grow, yes.
@@GamerBody thanks I got a bench press at home to work on close grip tricep press, plates to do overhead tricep extensions & skull crushers. Just wanted to add the bands since I don’t have dumbbells
Nice. Should be able to get just as good results as well with the bar but the bands can help add some variety :)
@@GamerBody yeah that’s why I wanted them but wasn’t sure if they could help me thanks
Dude how did you break your door??
I was just thinking that might happen when you mentioned it?!
My doorstopper got stuck in it as there wasn't enough space and I closed it pretty hard. It basically jammed it shut and I try to "soft" shoulder it open which broke the frame...good times.
Would you still recommend these? Thinking about buying them but I've seen mixed reviews.
No. I would go with the UnderSun loop bands. I also use a platform and bar, but that is up to you.
Which one is better latex or TPE band
Not sure what TPE is, but I use the Whatafit which say they are Latex so I do like them. Not sure what the difference would be though.
Can you do a full video on triceps just with resistance bands
I just do 1 triceps exercise per workout of my own and many involve compound lifts. Overhead triceps extensions, triceps pushdown are really the only ones I ever do with them. Not sure that is enough to warrant an entire video with them. Remember that you use them for overhead press, dips, pushups and other pushing exercises. They are secondary, but focus on those, then add in the isolation as needed.
Any problems with them now?
They still work, but I've found myself using loop bands a lot more and have a new setup I'll be showing in an upcoming video.
just got mine in today 4/18/22 from amazon less than $22.00
Any exercise list you have? That would be nice!
I don't really have a list. You can see my personal workout program over at gamerbody.com/training which is currently v2.1 and updates every few months. I have moved towards loop bands recently as I enjoy them a bit more than tube style now.
@@GamerBody oh, thanks for this!
But I was really looking on the internet if someone had made a workout purely with those bands. Due to corona I have invested a lil bit to make a gym in my room which comprises of the bands and training wheel. So, I thought maybe I could find som exercises purely for these equipments
They are out there. I have a combo of bands, dumbbells and pull-up/dip bar and that's what gets me by and I find it works very well :)
Three years later … Just bought these to use with a curl bar. I got them for $23.
I got the gray shade.
I personally moved to loop bands with the Innstar bar and a step platform. Check out the new setup here: czcams.com/video/bvu4aCptTkU/video.html&lc=UgyvySBnlpBFDlYP3Ox4AaABAg
@@GamerBody I saw that video. It’s great. I'll look into getting a step platform. It makes it look a bit like a Vitruvian. Haha
Thanks for making these videos. So informative. 👍
What muscle is being worked out at the 5:30 mark? It's kind of a dumb question lol
Your back.
Thank you for the reply
Great vid, they’re now under 30 bucks on amazon
Yeah great price for this product :)
Now roughly $25.00.
These are all good u til one slips out from under your feet
It's happened to me before, whipped me in the back and it hurts! I now use a standing platform with loop bands and handles/a bar and it's much better.
29.99
i got mine for 20 bucks
Damn got mine for 25 bucks on Amazon
Not too bad.
Lol this is like 30 on Amazon rn
you can get cheaper bands from walmart
Go for it! If you can find cheaper bands at the same quality or better, that is excellent :)
They are always out of stock
Fuck the price is so High , hear just 4 dollers in India
not bad!
It’s only 25$ now😂
these cost 7 dollars from china
I have moved on to Loop Resistance bands in my new setup as it is much better. Take a look here: czcams.com/video/sQwBOPSSJQY/video.html
Note, I recommend UnderSun right now over the Sunpow as shown in this video since I snapped the Sunpow band (largest one)
Bands like that are all much of a muchness.
What? Haha
u can get the same garbage, from another brand, but much cheaper, like 6 euro
they buy those bands dirt cheap from some company and resell it on amazon for higher price, haha
u lucky if they hold longer than 2 months
I no longer use this product, but it lasted a lot longer than that. I use UnderSun loop bands with a resistance bands bar. Take a look at those videos :)
Why are u moving around this resistance bands?no one wants to watch it forever
Can you elaborate a bit more? I'm not sure what you are referring too in the video.
you talk too much.
nice training anyway.
I mean, when it comes to fitness stuff I definitely talk a lot. Not as much as some, but a lot ;)
@@GamerBody I actually find it very informative, keep up the good work :)))
