WODFitters Resistance Bands Review
If you’re like us at Modern Athletic Health, you like to incorporate a variety of tools into your workout to help build strength, hit your muscles from different angles, and even offer assistance in exercises you may not be able to do regularly like pull-ups. Sure. you may see bodybuilders hitting a set of 15, powerlifters cranking them out with a 45lb plate, and CrossFit athletes doing pull-ups into muscle ups, but when is the last time you’ve tried to do a strict pull-up? Not so simple is it? At least not without the proper training tools that can help you achieve your goals! A company that we have turned to recently to help us achieve some of our goals is WODFitters. WODFitters is a company dedicated to providing athletes around the world with training and mobility tools, protective gear, apparel, and nearly anything you could think of that could help you in OR out of the gym! Many of us have heard of companies like Rogue and Elite FTS which are great but let’s face it, they aren’t always the friendliest on the wallet! WODFitters was kind enough to send us out a pack of their mobility and fitness bands to try—and we were excited to compare them to some of the more well known companies in the industry. If you’re interested in learning more about WODFitters, their products, and what separates them from the other big brands on the market, keep reading below! Oh, and don’t forget to check out the sweet discount code at the end of the article to save some cash!
The WODFitters difference: We want to start out by saying that we do appreciate and respect all of the other fitness companies on the market who make great products. With that being said, WODFitters customer service and commitment to keeping customers happy is what has set them apart from many other companies out there. WOD Fitters was started a few years ago by CEO Katalin Cseke who initially started by selling jump ropes on Amazon. The U.S based company eventually took off through Amazon and started producing everything from resistance bands, to jump ropes, to recovery bath bombs designed to help your aching muscles recover!
Along the way, the family-owned business WODFitters cornerstone has not only been high quality products, but a “consumer first” mentality unlike any we have seen in the industry! It starts with their 100% money back guarantee—which isn’t just another meaningless marketing tool.
The following is an excerpt coming straight from their website:
“Seriously…if for any reason you are unhappy with your order…if the mail man accidentally stepped on it, it comes damaged or is lost in transit we take personal responsibility to work with you and ensure everything is resolved as quickly as possible!”
WODFitters will go out of their way to refund your money, ship you new product, and even offers a lifetime warranty on all of their products! As if that isn’t reason enough to try their products, WODFitters also offers buyers free shipping on any USA orders over $25! Most companies have a $50-$100 minimum to receive any type of shipping discounts—not WODFitters.
If all of THAT isn’t enough, they have a mailing list that will send you out training information, fitness tips, healthy recipes, product coupons, and even have a product test drive offer that lets you try out new releases or other upcoming products FOR FREE! Oh, and did we mention that they offer an additional 20% off if you can provide a military ID and a discount for all new members that enter their email address on the main page. They’re practically GIVING their stuff away!
What do they offer?
As much as we’d love to continue talking about their impressive customer service, let’s get into some of the products they offer. The following is a list of categories, and what you may find in each of those on their website.
• Resistance Bands: Here they offer long fitness bands in a multitude of colors and resistances. They also offer a select set for women, as well as hip circles for proper leg day warm up or exercises. As if that wasn’t enough, they offer a “home gym” kit, complete with resistance tubes, handles, and ankle attachments that turn any door into the perfect set up for a home gym! You’ll also find men’s and women’s mini bands, resistance tubes with handles, physical therapy bands, and even floss bands to help with mobility.
• Mobility tools: In this section you’ll find more of their band selections, but also find lacrosse balls and peanut massage balls for deep tissue work, wooden slant boards for stretching the lower body, and trigger point and foam rollers designed to get those hard to reach knots.
• Protective Gear: The protective gear selection has some of the standards; wrist wraps, light weight lifting belts, and knee sleeves. Aside from that they offer hand grips for pull ups, wrist wraps for heavy pulls, and even offer kinesiology tape to help alleviate pain and swelling! The protective gear selection accommodates powerlifters, bodybuilders, Olympic lifting and CrossFit athletes alike!
• Apparel: The apparel selection at WODFitters is no joke either. You can find yourself a variety of different colored and designed leggings, tank tops, and sweaters to fit just about every size and shape!
What do we think?
While we wish we could have tried just about everything that WODFitters has to offer, we are grateful that we were able to try their 5 pack of resistance bands. As a company full of employees who have used many resistance bands for various mobility and strength exercises in the past, we can safely say that this ranks up there with the best-of-the-best, at nearly a fraction of the cost. You can choose to buy a band individually OR in a 4 or 5 pack when selecting from their drop-down menu. Each band has all of the size and resistance info listed on their website. There, you can check out how much resistance your band is providing at the beginning and throughout your lift! Each band starts out at 41” but can be stretched to nearly double the length (at least in our test run!) The bands are perfect for using during bench press, dumbbell pressing and other upper body accessories. Although we recommend using 2 when squatting and performing other compound movements such as deadlifts, they make the perfect tool for adding resistance to other accessory lifts and even providing support. Using a band to help you with tricky pull ups or dips can help your body get a feel for the movement while reliving some of the weight. Most often we can efficiently perform exercises on machines or with free weights, but body weight exercises can prove to be most difficult (and most rewarding!). Let WODFitters fitness and mobility resistance bands help you to learn and perform those movements safely!
Price Point: At the most expensive, the 5-pack of resistance bands will run you $129.99 including free shipping, which is already a great price for a quality product. However, throwing in the code WF30 at checkout will get you 30% off your entire order and bring the 5-pack down to about $91+tax. We have searched high and low through the market and no other company can offer the quality of bands, money back guarantee, and lifetime warranty that WODFitters offers. Plus, free shipping on top of that makes this an unbeatable deal.
We don’t always get excited about using extra workout equipment, but when we do, it’s WODFitters. We’ve loved training and improving our mobility with their resistance bands and we think you will too. With their near 5-star rating and money back guarantee, what do you have to lose?! You should head on over to www.WODFitters.com and checkout their entire line of fitness equipment, including their phenomenal quality resistance bands. Remember, anything over $25 gets you free shipping in the USA and using code WF30 will get you an additional 30% off your entire order! Whether your looking to spice up your training, improve mobility, or take your recovery to another level, WODFitters has a training tool for you.
