The Flexcords Resistance Bands Set comes with:

• 6 Resistance Bands (3 pounds - 55 pounds)
• Handles
• Door attachment for additional exercises
• Handy Exercise Chart

The Flexcords Resistance Bands Set is a great option for people wanting to buy a set of fitness bands without a lot of extra frills. The only thing this set is missing is the ankle straps which limits the amount of leg exercises you can do. However you can easily fit your feet into the foam handles so all is not lost. Ankle straps can be purchased elsewhere or even made at home with a little velcro if you are a creative person.

The included exercise chart is really nothing to write home about, but if you have never used a fitness band before it can give you a good starting point. If you are not already on a specific exercise program like P90X, Pilates, or Yoga then you will want to get a book or DVD with more exercises. There are also tons of example videos on YouTube and other video sharing sites.

The exercise bands included in this set are of good quality. They were strong and we were able to punish them pretty harshly during a P90X session and there was no signs of scarring or tearing on the bands or the handles. There are 6 different bands where most sets of this price only include 3 or 4. With 6 bands it is possible that two people could work out at the same time using the same set.

Not having ankle straps is usually a bad sign for if you are looking to buy exercise band sets, but this set includes more bands that normal so we think that it kind of balances out. The included bands are also good quality, so we think that trading 2 50 cent ankle straps for 3 quality resistance bands is a good bargain.
