Hi!

 

I'm just came in this course. ^^

 

Cause' I exercise on the school field, there are some restrcitions of instruments.

 

In this course, using weighted bar is infeasable for me. T_T

 

So, can i use my rubber band (which is for cross-fit) instead of weighted bar for mobility motion?

 

 

 

Thanks. ^^

The reason you have to use a bar is that you don't want it to flex, bend, or stretch at all. You also need weight (3-5lbs to start) to activate the correct muscles when doing the exercise.

 

A lot of us use an empty broom stick with either small plates over it or literally just crap taped/bungied onto it. You should be able to find a broom stick somewhere at the school...perhaps a friendly janitor? :)
