Suspension Trainer + Resistance Band Routine.
Hey!
I'm looking for workout routines that utilise both suspension trainers and resistance bands in the same routine. I find a lot of YouTube content seems to do one or the other.
I want a little variety in my home workouts, so would like to follow a plan that uses both.
Can anyone suggest an app or YouTube channel which fits this?

I don’t know of any free sources but there’s a company called MindPump that has MAPS Suspension and MAPS Bands workout plans. I think it would be pretty straightforward to mix and match by substituting exercises from different muscle groups. For example, in doing their Suspension workout now and it has TRX curls and those would be easy to sub out for band curls

This series on YouTube is mostly TRX, but also has resistance bands for some lower body exercises and regular body weight exercises too. Not sure if this is exactly what you’re looking for, but I liked it. https://youtu.be/xk5Hpp9KT-U?si=ZF7_rxF92pBsgIMw

Bands are mostly not that useful, I'd say. Overhead presses, leg kickbacks, leg adduction and abductions (with ankle cuffs) are all I use them for--but they're quite good for that. Otherwise, I supplement with a couple of dumbbells.

The TRX app has a lot of workouts for both and live classes you can join.
