What type of equipment is suggested for use after body weight in resistive exercise progression?

  1. Barbells

  2. Resistance bands

  3. Dumbbells

  4. Kettlebells

The correct answer is: Resistance bands

Resistance bands are the best option for use after body weight in resistive exercise progression because they provide a gradual and controlled increase in resistance, helping to progressively overload the muscles and improve strength. Using barbells, dumbbells, or kettlebells may be too heavy and cause injury or muscle strain, particularly for beginners or those who do not have proper form. Resistance bands also offer convenience and versatility, as they can be used for a wide range of exercises and easily adjusted to different levels of resistance.
