bands are great tension for the t.g.the board act as a bench so u can do alot.i like squating use bands as resistance,shoulder press.on the negative bands will pull u back,but i control my negative with bands,slow motion.true mike that should band press is everything. great 💡
Genius!!! I didn’t even think of this one!
Nice use of bands with the bench
Damn , thats a whole new level of resistance training.👍💪😁
I actually have been doing this with squats for some time, as I find sliding benches not the most challenging for them but the stand great for technique and safety. I wish I considered all the other possibilities sooner. I'm facepalming at how much more I could've done combined with my resistance bar and bands.
Also, just wanted to say, I've loved this channel! I bought a welder around 2 years ago and this channel came in handy when getting used to it. Thanks for making this! :)
Thanks for those comments. I'm surprised too that I didn't start incorporating the bar with bands sooner as well.
You are the Nikola Tesla of exercise! Nicely done!! Thank you! 👍👏
I bit the bullet and bout a TG fit, After watching your videos for 6 months. Its been 3 weeks now since I purchased it, It was worth every penny
Awesome to hear. Haven't heard from many people that have regretted the purchase.
Yes, that's a good idea as well. Basically we can use the TG with everything.
You're right. Best piece of home gym equipment hands down.
@@hybridresistance Indeed. Since a few weeks back I got myself a Bowflex machine and I also interested in a Bioforce, you know, just to see if they'll do what they promise (and I kinda enjoy building these machines) but the TG is still my main gym equipment
Hello my good friend. After watching a number of your videos I broke down and ordered my first glide board bench trainer. I like to add variety to my workouts (weight training, boxing and circuit training) and ended up purchasing ProForm’s Ultimate bodywork. It was a toss up between the ProForm model and Total Gym’s Apex G1. After considering the additional cost for the Total Gym accessories (Xlarge leg press stand $100.00, weight bar $25.00, push-up bar $70.00, ,etc) it was a no brained to go with the ProForm model.
I watched your review on the ProForm ultimate bodywork, 3 times to take notes on the improvements made and what stuck out was the user weight capacity was raised to 300 pounds because better construction and material used. I also purchased a pair of 41 inch power bands to add additional resistance when needed.
Thanks for your videos and insight as I will be tuning in on some of your workouts to incorporate in my routine.
Thanks for those comments Jose. The ProForm is a great machine that will be perfect to mix in with everything your doing.
Hey Mike i saw your video and got one of these bars its awesome with my sliding bench thanks brother!
Great to hear it worked for you. Thanks for watching.
Awesome info as always! Thanks for the tips on the face down squat as I finally was able to do some.
Great to hear. Thanks again for watching.
Good ideas
This is great! I have the loop style bands but these tube style bands together with the Total Gym seem to be a gamechangner!
I swear, you're like the mad scientist of Total Gym hacks! These tips are absolute game changers for me. I use Bodylastics bands, but never like this. Can't wait to jump on later. Thanks as always!
Thank you. Don’t know if you saw it but I just released a video showing the bodylastics bands alongside some new exercises.
@@hybridresistance No, didn't see it yet. Will definitely look for it later. Thanks for the heads up.
As always, great stuff
Thanks again, appreciate it.
Bodylastics are high quality.
I agree. I *only* trust Bodylastics due to the its snap-free (DGS) technology.
Love those videos. I want to use my total gym more, 1-2 weekly on top of free weights I have been doing. Thanks :))
Thank you and thanks again for watching.
Good video... Thanks for sharing
no problem, thanks for watching.
Good vid but personally I will not be using resistance bands with my TG. Just my normal weight provides the resistance I need. I hope your future workouts just use resistance bands only on the TG.
Consider using bunjee cords. These are built to industrial standards and are a bundle of latex strands. Are cheaper and long lasting/ Tey habour freight
Great tip, thank you.
Have you figured out how to exercise gluts and calves using ankle straps while body position up facing rollers?
Check out Bodylastics bands.
I ordered them. I'll check back with you guys and let you know what I think
@@hybridresistance After watching YouTude "Gym Fails" with people taking bands to the face, Bodylastics is the only one I'd use w/o a motorcycle helmet.
@2:11 can the XLS work the same with bar at the top like that?
I have the Total Gym 3000, which is very similar to the XLS. I hook the bands from the bottom to the upper bar, and hold onto the lower bar for hack squats. Works perfectly.
Just my opinion but if you like bands with handles my favorite which are very durable are bodylastics.
I believe you've been telling about them for some time. I will check them out. I trust you Lou! Thanks again.
Great video. I was also going to recommend the bodylastics. They are a bit pricey, but definitely on the good quality side. I’ve also used the leg anchor my set came with as a handle on my total gym which has worked well if you don’t have a rope handle.
Can you creat videos to get lean start out then increase for over all weight loss?
You mean just general weight loss? Just want trying to make sure I'm getting the question. I will be doing something like this soon as it's about that time of year where my winter binging should start to fade.
