The Lift Hotter Collective
Know your resistance band set
Three levels, built to progress with you. Match the color to the level, then work your way up.
Your three levels
The color is the level. Every movement below is shown with the band we would start you on.
- Tone White marble. The lightest. Warm ups, activation, burnout sets.
- Sculpt Pink marble. Light to medium. Walks, kickbacks, standing work.
- Power Black marble. Medium to heavy. Thrusts and squats.

Where to start
Four weeks. Move up a band when the last one stops fighting back.
- Week 1 Tone I Two sessions. Three rounds of 15 to 20 reps per movement. Learn the placement before you chase the burn.
- Week 2 Tone I to Sculpt II Three sessions. Three rounds of 12 to 15. Move up to Sculpt on bridges and squats, stay on Tone for the rest.
- Week 3 Sculpt II Three sessions. Four rounds of 12 to 15. Slow the lowering to three counts and use the full range.
- Week 4 Sculpt II to Power III Three sessions. Four rounds of 10 to 12 on Power, 15 on everything else. Finish each session with a burnout set.
Care
Hand wash cold, air dry. Keep away from direct heat and sharp edges. Store them flat and they will hold their snap.
