Need to get me a set of them, used to love them and well as using chains when doing PL.Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. (Philippians 2:3)

Re: Band work
I started doing bang pull aparts. I just use the long ass ones with handles and just grab the middle section. The band pull aparts as a shoulder warmup on all days has served me well!!Originally posted by kazman68 View Post
I've also been using the same bands for flat bench and its really helped me progress!
Here is the series I do 1 circuit as a warm up and a few at the end of my workout. I don't care for the ones where the elbows stay at the sides. I need weaker bands to do them as shown. Fish man on here shared this link

Re: Band work
What on shoulder press? I haven't been doing shoulder presses on a seated barbell setup like I was.Originally posted by zedhed View Post
Been really mixing it up lately and I only do the same workout 2 weeks in a row if that. I know what body parts I'm going to train for the day and just pick the exercise I wanna do that day for the most part. If it feel good I'll revisit it the next week.Blah blah blah Latina's ass...blah blah blah!Comment

Re: Band work
Need to start back up again...I had alot of success with them on another note our gym got some chains so I may start to use them on squats, It sucks as I have aged it has become harder and harder to gain/maintain leg mass (especially quads).sigpicComment

Re: Band work

"is it gone break?!"
been there...
remember to stretch and go for reps at first .. and remember on a come back you can't lift what you left off at !!! I know your heart is there ...but you have to remember you were not there ,..and most important you want to stay back working out .. I am finish coming back now and finally getting to new weights ..only took 4 months and 2 months off.
actually I am right now at that point where I am great full I am working out ... after all that injury there was a part of me that said I was never going back.. like I am too old and it may be time to quit for ever
a kind of reality check on my own mortality..
I go to the gym now with a sense that this is awesome..
you will get there Kaz.
just remember it is a marathon not a sprint ....unless of course you are interval training

Re: Band work
Where u at brother kaz?? Hope all is well.
I started using bands again on bench and man does it increase my bench fast! I do bands on my working sets except my last heavy set. I'll do this for 2-3 weeks in a row then take 1-2 weeks off the bands and my weight keeps climbing! You guys mentioned the bands and my mutant buddy showed me how he uses them. He was up to a 465 lb bench at 225lbs. He just started blasting again so I'm sure he's close to that again!
Check out bands guys!Blah blah blah Latina's ass...blah blah blah!Comment
