  • There is a common misconception that RESISTANCE BANDS are for the faint of heart. Today I'm going to talk about the PROS and CONS of using resistance bands, and tell you why they're actually one of the most friendly forms of resistance for the body.
    Tywuan Williams and I will be tackling more Q&A in our upcoming videos. Comment below with your questions and let us know if there's anything you'd like to see.

    I had bad injury to my left hand, lost 2 fingers, was pretty depressed going from bodybuilding for 20 years to thinking id never workout again. Using bands I've started to gain a lot of strength back. Knowledge of emg combined with bands you will definitely make as much progress possibly as using free weights

    Good video. Bands are great and even preferred over dumbells for many reasons. They could make at least some exercises safer than dumbbell or barbell variants, they're great for travelling (as they weigh next to nothing), they're cheaper than the equivalent weight of dumbells in many cases, and are more versatile

    I would also think these would be a hell of a lot safer if training solo. Say benching with a weight above your chest/neck or doing a squat and you fatigue on a lift you have a pretty large weight that will hit the floor with you under it, with these you could let go and might get a bruise on the shin if they ping you but nothing life threatening. I haven't used resistance bands yet, but I did do weights for quite a few years and what I have seen these seem a more joint friendly option and also a safer option if you fail on a lift and don't have anyone spotting you.

    The squat here looks a bit like good mornings. That's ok if this is intended. It might make sense because with strict form there is hardly any resistance at the bottom point at all. That being said, squats with resistance bands are not your best quad band option. Better are step ups, lunges etc
