For both stretching and working out Giovana Braia, trainer at StretchLab, loves using Gritin Resistance Bands (£14). Made out of natural material that's recyclable, these bands normally come in sets of five, each with different a resistance level. This is great for those who want to progress with their stretching.
Resistance bands are beneficial in many ways. They can help aid stretching by adapting to different flexibility levels, and allow you to modify different exercises so you gain the most from your workout. If a resistance band isn't available, a towel is an easy prop found in your own home that can be used to help you increase your flexibility through stretching.
