(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 08, 2015 ) San Francisco, CA -- CrossFit Chiang Mai is the first CrossFit affiliate in Thailand and it's making a striking impression on the world of fitness within its sphere of influence. Barry Lavis, a CrossFit Level 1 Certified Trainer at CrossFit Chiang Mai and USAW Olympic weightlifting coach, has officially endorsed the WOD Nation resistance bands for multiple uses within CrossFit training.
The WOD Nation resistance bands offer color coded ease in selection that correspond to their resistance level. Bands are available in five resistance increments beginning with the company's red band at 10-35 lbs. and topping out at 65-175 lbs. with the blue band. The color coding makes it easy to select the right band and customize resistance to the individual's fitness level and task.
Lavis noted that one of the advantages of the WOD Nation bands is that they allow faster progress with pull-up progressions and different bands can be combined to boost strength and fitness levels. They're appropriate for jumping, plyometrics, aerobics, and speed and agility training. Lavis utilizes them in his CrossFit training sessions to stretch, warm-up and for general conditioning.
The bands are utilized at CrossFit Chiang Mai for lateral stretches and prior to squats to open the hips. They're effective for hip flexor and front rack stretches for better weight distribution barbell work. The world-class athletes Lavis trains also use the bands to enhance tendon flexibility.
The WOD Nation bands provide athletes with the means to help reduce the risk of injury before any type of training. They can be used for chin-up assistance, muscle-ups and ring dips in CrossFit training. Constructed with 100 percent rubber latex, they're equally applicable for anyone undergoing rehabilitation.
The bands are a beneficial addition to physiotherapy programs, allowing individuals to maintain mobility, range of motion and flexibility at home in between sessions at the physiotherapist practice. WOD Nation resistance bands aid in body weight strength training and provide a low-stress path to fitness for those with bone and joint conditions.
The endorsement of the WOD Nation resistance bands by CrossFit Chiang Mai is a testament to the quality and durability of the company's products. The WOD Nation bands are compatible with CrossFit Chiang Mai's emphasis on nutrition, strength and conditioning conducted in a comfortable, earth-friendly environment.
