Those who can not work with devices - for example, on holiday or for lack of time - but does not want to miss a workout. This Theraband an alternative can be created. OK, the black band is widely available, but also twice used only for the novice thought. The silver band is OK for some exercises, but for larger power setting is this golden belt ideally suited (eg biceps training). Taken short (about 1m) can thus already so replace some weight, and compared to free weights training is even on the joints. Eiziges drawback: 2m are tight when you want to wrap it several times for better gripping, because in this tension can cut otherwise already. Or you can use the Thera-Band handles ... highly recommended!
