    I use band training for rotator cuff movements.

    Theyre like chains - an accessory to lifting with weights.

    I think theyd be a useful maintenance tool if you couldnt get to the gym, though. Or if you went on holiday or something. It'd be nothing to put that in a suitcase.

    Bands have their uses. There's no reason to go out of your way to do a band circuit, but it could be fun for variety sake. It's also a great way to get a good workout in while on vacation.

    You could use a body weight workout just as well. Or you could just run on vacation for cardio. I must admit that the guy had fantastic form though.

    Here's another inspirational workout vid. It's a body weight workout of sorts for the VERY advanced.
