Anyone know how to adjust the TaeBo Bootcamp bands?

I got mine used and they are too long. The video says to follow the directions they came with to shorten them but I don't have the directions. Does anyone know how to shorten them?

Thanks!

I wrapped mine twice around my hands... or you can take the loop that goes around your foot... put your foot through it.... then put the top part (where your hands go) and run it between your foot and the band.... pull through.

It depends on your height. I'm 5'4"

Thanks!

Do they hurt your wrists? Not the joint but the outside where they hit your arm.

No it didn't hurt. But I haven't done those videos in about 6 months because my bands broke. Where did you get yours ?

I thought the bands were very poorly made.

Just put the handle through the loop where your foot goes. If it's not short enough, put it through one more time. That works for me!

I got them from a friend who wasn't using them anymore.

What I really want is the original set of TaeBo videos. I had them on VHS years ago (they're probably still out in my garage someplace) but they were too hard for me then. Now I think I'd love them but I don't have a working VHS player anymore.

I agree about the orignials! The other day I did the Tae Bo Get Ripped series. I love those videos! I lost 17 pounds on them 4 years ago. The new ones just aren't the same.
