So Why Band-ITS?
Not All Kit Is Created Equal….
Not all kit is created equal…. From online coaching, to protein supplements to the latest gadgets and gizmos, the online health and fitness market is hugely over-saturated with products that claim to be the next big thing. It’s getting harder and harder (even for industry professionals) to figure out the scams from the successes.
That’s why we’re here today to advocate for the Band-ITS Kit. Band-ITS is a resistance band training product, and we all know that resistance band has been really well tried and tested over the years, and more importantly, gives results. Resistance band has a long history of use in both the fitness and medical space and it’s here to stay. This is precisely why we chose to work with band, no need to re-invent the wheel when you have something that already works well!
So allow us to take you on a guided tour of our products, including how they’re made, specific design choices and an example of their benefits for your training program. We think they’re pretty awesome- and hopefully by the end of this page, you’ll think so too.Â

They can be used on skin or training clothes and the metals clips provide a secure attachment for the bands and the upper limb kit.

And for a full-body workout, the Band-ITS Ultimate Kit includes everything from both the upper limb and lower limb sets.
Resistance band is an excellent supplement to your workout for neuromuscular strength training, creating strong muscles and tendons without ‘bulk’. Whether you’re 18 or 80 years old, this safe and effective equipment is designed for optimal function, and the different strength bands can both assist or resist movement to challenge your strength.
Used in a variety of settings, Band-ITS is ideal for:
- Injury rehabilitation
- Balance training / falls prevention
- Muscle maintenance post-menopause
- Athletic development & sport-specific training
What makes the Band-ITS Kit stand out from other types of band?
- The lower limb leg straps with their easy-to-use clip on/clip off mechanism are comfortable to wear and support fully dynamic 3D-movement (think sprints/lunges) without scrunching up, rolling down or digging into your legs. The material is grippy, and fits well on both bare skin or lycra/fabric tights. This is perfect for sport-specific development that requires multidirectional movement training, including football, dance, gymnastics and martial arts.
-
The leg straps are specifically designed to be worn at the top of the leg, close to the pelvis, rather than around the knees and ankles, which can place excess strain on the joints. Instead, by wearing the bands close to the hips, you can achieve targeted control for the hips and pelvis (the powerhouse of the body) for greater core strength and stability.Â
The lower limb bands help to target the deeper hip stabilisers (optimal illiopsoas recruitment), as well as the glute med tendon and hip flexor tendons – rather than just the superficial hip flexors. This will promote greater movement efficiency, hip stability and core strength.Â
The upper limb kit can be used with a variety of different anchor points, a pole, the ankle strap or the leg straps of the lower limb kit.
Because the product attaches to you, you can be fully mobile and dynamic without needing to attach it to something solid or stand on an end to anchor it down. Band-ITS = Band Independent Training System, and that’s exactly what it is !
What do we love about Band-ITS?
One of the greatest things about training with the Band-ITS is the immediate sense of ease of movement after taking the Bands off. You can really feel instant changes in your body. Just take a look at this amazing before and after:

What makes the Band-ITS Massage balls different from a tennis/lacrosse/spikey ball?

-
The Band-ITS balls aren’t too hard or uncomfortable- and they certainly won’t leave you covered in bruises! This is ideal for gentle but effective myofascial release, and can even be used on bonier areas of the body without pain.Â

The two balls can be used separately or together to cover a larger surface area.
