Is there a workout for almost every major muscle with resistance bands?

Can bands breaks during an exercise? How Sturdy are they?

Thanks for all your answers.

I work out with bands instead of weights because I don't have a lot of room and I can't afford a gym membership right now. I really like them because you can switch exercises immediately and I feel less prone to get injured with them. I don't want to get huge or anything, I just want to be lean, muscular, and athletic. My favorite sport is basketball, so I don't need to be Hulk Hogan, lol.

Here's a couple of good vids with some exercises you can do:

But yeah, if you get heavy bands, they can really tax you. I like 'em, though--they're fun.

A couple of companies you can look into are Lifeline and Bodylastics. I'm not promoting either, though. You can probably also go down to your local sporting goods store and pick up a band with handles for like 20 bucks.
