They are also suitable for push-ups or crunches to increase and intensify the exercises. The same applies to dumbbells with different weight sizes. Kettlebells complement them very well. Resistance bands increase resistance and thus also intensify many exercises, such as squats. Sling trainers strengthen extra deep muscles.
