Need resistance band workout and band recommendation

Can anyone recommend a good resistance band workout and band recommendation? It would be for my 68-year old brother-in-law, who works out but never with bands before.

Btw, I don't know what kind of bands you were looking for, with handles, flat bands (Pilates type), loop bands? The ones used in the workout I linked are called Pull Up Assistance/Resistance Bands, mine are Kylin Sports and they have worked great for years, Amazon has a nice selection, different brands and lot of reviews.

Ex-NFL player T.O. (Terrell Owens) has a book with band workouts called T.O.'s Finding Fitness. I have this book and it is pretty comprehensive. Here is the link on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/T-s-Finding-F...3459233&sr=8-6

This reminds me that I need to go back and go through my fitness library. I have a lot of really good books that I haven't looked at in a while because of all the DVD workouts I've acquired

I bought a set of flat bands at Target. They were light, medium and heavier resistance. I'm sure they would be fine for someone starting out with bands.

Thanks, Jane! That would be great. And thanks to everyone else who posted. Should give my brother-in-law some good ideas.
