I've had a hard time finding a good descriptive video for how to set bands up for different lifts. This was very well done. Thank you!!
Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for watching.
This is the video I have been looking for, so glad you came up on my playlist! The instructions you give are awesome as well as the alternatives if you don't have an anchor. Thanks a bunch:)
Good assist for us and prevent injuries too for safety too. Thanks for the advice
Great video. For some reason I thought the actual bands were not the same as the "stretch" bands, I thought they were thinner and maybe longer. Great to see all the variations. Keep it up!!!
Great video. Just got a beginner set from Westside to use for squats and pulls.
Great video! Thanks, this information will come in handy!!
Fantastic video, much appreciated !
This is really useful. I have been using bands for a couple of months but not been setting them up right and using too thick a band and them being too slack. I need thinner bands so I can get less slack and a smoother resistance throughout. Still seen results but I know it could be better! Lol thanks for the great advice. Atb. Tom.
Great video, very well explained thankyou from London!!!
Great information. Thanks bud✌😎
Excellent video. Thanks!
This is great advice
Excellent explanation
Damn thank you … been searching tons of videos and this is perfect.
Thanks for watching & the kind comment!
Excellent information. Thx 💕🙏
Excellent video
Great info, we get asked all the time about power bands, great explanation.
Thanks for that comment. Glad it helped.
Awesome explanation. Thank you!
Thanks for watching, and thanks for the kind words!

Thanks!
great video, thanks so much!!
thanks!
Very helpful tutorial. Thank you sir!
Thank you for watching!
Underrated video, thanks for this
Ya know, it really is underrated...THANKS!
This is an excellent video.
thanks
This was a great video 🙏🏽🙏🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Mannn you are a legend. So simple, yet effective. Couldn’t wrap (no pun intended) my head around how to make the double-band for the bench without one of those pins, but the way you did it made me realise how easy it actually is haha. 😂
Anyways keep up the great work this was a gamechanger, take care 💪🏼
Really generous comments...thank you!
Thank you so much!! My power rack doesnt have holes for band pegs. Video solved my issue. Now I dont have to drill holes on the bottom of the rack. This video is a godsend. Subscribed!
Well that is awesome. Glad it helped, and thanks for commenting & subscribing.
Very good
This is a good description of band set up. it would be even better if the lifts were demomstrated.
thank you
Does nobody have a link for the resistance bands? I've watched so many vids about using said bands but I want one that will be durable enough for lifting.
would you say the reverse bands and the normal bands setup have the same effect?
What is the benefits of bands compared to just lifting heavier weight.
Also is there any benefit in using bands with lighter weight for strength or just life heavier weight for strength?
watching matt wennings band set up it's ingenious. using a plate stand it up a put it in the middle of the band pull one end through.
Absolutely! And it also adds more tension that way even if it's single-looped the plate works like there are multiple pegs spread out.
What set up do you have for lifting
great video!! one question. if the rack is not bolted in what types of band while doing a squat or deadlift could potentially move the rack, or how much rack weight would help to keep it from moving? I am sure that is a subjected question. I have the bigger bands from Serious Steel and Elite FTS and pairs from Clench Fitness, undersun, and x3. i do have about 300lb in sandbags that maybe I could lay on top of the rack?
It sounds the sand bags are enough weight. Definitely try it out timidly first to see if that IS enough weight.
Does doubling the bands double the resistance added.. Ie, red bands are supposed to add 30 lbs to the top, would they now add 60 or is not directly proportional
Question: If I add resistance bands to weights while working out using 2 of the same gauge resistance bands does that in effect double the resistance band tension? For example, if I am bench pressing with a weight of 135 and I add one resistance (with a resistance of 15-35 pounds depending of the tension put on the band through out the movement ) on each side of the apparatus, will it add between 30 and 70 pounds to the 135 pounds? Thanks!
Good questions! Yes, if you know the precise tension of the band on one side of the bench, you would double it and that will give you the total added resistance.
Do you ever worry about the bands breaking/pop when stretching during workout ?
I got a question. some ppl put the resistant band at the put of the squat rack when squatting. doesn't that put less resistance on the exercise or is does it make it easier for the lifter to life the weight? and whats the benefits when putting at the top? thanks for the vids on bands.
I think you meant "top" of the squat rack.
That is a reverse banded squat. It does deload the bottom portion a bit, but less so at the top. You'd have to adjust the weight.
What the benefit of reverse band doesn’t it just make the lift easier?
Do you think it's safe to try a double mini band for squats for someone with a 300-400lb squat? Both for speed and max effort?
Edit: I have already tried it and it works as long as you can maintain bar speed and it still feels like speed work.
Yea as long as you have much resistance and strength to do it and the hypertrophy.
Can you utilize accommodated resistance for hypertrophy? Or is this a tool mainly for strength and maximal contractile velocity
Can be used for either. Going to stress to a greater degree the muscle or muscles that work to finish the movement (triceps more than pecs on bench; glutes more on the squat, etc.).
What are you using for the band pegs? Thanks 👍
Rogue racks come with them - you could probably buy some from Titan or Rogue or similar (just double-check their diameter & that they would fit in the rack holes).
What percentage of the lift should the bands be? How do you know what "weight" of bands to get?
Don't really go off a percentage of weight, plus obviously the resistance in the bottom of the lift and top will be different (plus it will be different by lift).
You'll be using fairly tiny bands, so if you're looking at Rogue or a similar company, the smaller ones will likely be used (these are also the cheapest). Play around with it, though.
Thanks Pal, what's the length of bands in inches? 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Learn Metric.
@@Horus-Lupercal thanks.

Hey buddy please can you mention that how much exactly weight range of your LIGHT resistance band which you told am struggling to find
Don't understand your question exactly, but throw on the bands and work up to a weight until it is difficult. Use thin bands, not the big thick ones.
@@BarbellLogic dear i have the band pair in which it's mention 15-35 lbs resistance so is it good for bench press ..??? That is my point
@@kushagrasingh6423 Yes, good for bench press
@@BarbellLogic and for shoulder press how much lbs Bands needed
@@kushagrasingh6423 You can use the same bands
What is the best band to get or the best size ie 41 in?
For Rogue bands, the red or blue (need 2) tend to be good.

What would be the top weight of the green bands on bench?
Depends on the company, the height of the bench, where you position the bands, etc. It's a physics equation, with lots of different factors.
@@BarbellLogic say double green on the bench press
What kind of bands you recommend from Amazon?
Honestly, haven't looked at them. Probably any you get are fine.
Thanks
Stupid question but Anyone know where i can get bands for a barbell?
Most resistance bands should work - you can find them from Amazon, Rogue, even Target or Walmart.
Thank you my man!
Do band help build strength faster? Or what is the true benefit of band/chains. I get it gets heavier as I lift but is it a noticeable strength improvement?
It is. It helps u on the lock out
Smashes lockout.
I believe they help you get stronger faster. With a resistant band you have a lot more tension then if you were just moving weight. For example when you curl, most of the work “tension” is towards the middle of the exercise. Now if you curl with a resistant band the tension is present through the whole workout. Plus they are great for not being able to hit the gym and doing a home workout. 💪
Love from india
Thank you for watching (& commenting). Hope all is well over there.
What bands are these?
Not sure. Probably Rogue. Any bands will do--start smaller than you think
You alot like Leon Lush haha
Why do we need reverse band bench press though?
I mean, you don't, really
Still can’t find answers about WHY use reverse bands vs normal. And HOW to choose the right band tension.
Kind of have to play with it, but the stronger you are, the more tension. Reverse bands would make the top easier, so stress the lower portion more (as well as focus on the descent).
@@BarbellLogic thank you for your answer 🙌🏼
I have a problem with resistand bands. I like the idea, but even if you use the same Brad and color band, being ad elastic material, the resistand is gonna be uneven in both sides.
I check it with a dinamomeric scale, and for example using a red elastic band, both bought at the same time, and I have extra 12kg on the pick of my squat i one side and 10,5kg on the other.
We buy really expensive weights to weight exactly as is written on the plate to avoid working uneven and then we use bands to make uneven all the workout.
You're right. Unless you get the most expensive plates out there, however, the plates are also going to not weight the exact same. You may also have body limb length discrepancies. I think the best thing to do is not worry about small discrepancies like this--unless there's some pain or noticeable issues from using them.
Thanks for the comment.
Why not just load up more plates?
More weight on the bar is not the same thing as accommodating resistance, which allows for the weight to change throughout the range of motion.
I just hope people NEVER use suicide grip with resistance bands
yes
"Choke"? You mean girth hitch?
Rogue is way overpriced
I dont see the point of reversing the bands
unless youre doing pullups
Some form of a Deload?I personally don’t understand either
reversing the bands and using them the normal is pretty much the exact same thing, i guess its just down to personal preference
