James you need to do a video on how to properly do lat pulldowns with resistance bands and the different techniques we can use. That would go a helluva long way!

Admittedly,..half way through this I just figured it was just KZfaq filler for James and there was nothing in here that really would benefit me.....that is.....until 3:31 when I was basically looking at myself! I always have that tendency to pull straight down. This is ALSO where Resistance bands excel!!! It is much easier or more natural to approach this movement the correct way (less linear with hands and arms and more natural arcing and emphasis with elbows) with bands than it is with a fixed bar and pulley. Nicely explained James!!!!

Thanks my friend! I'm glad I didn't disappoint. LOL. Yeah, the freedom of movement with the bands really helps find that perfect angle/path, as opposed to being locked in a fixed position with a bar

@@JamesGrage Absolutely! Plant City area. 45 years old, long time heavy lifting meathead in the iron-game, but after a while, muscles keep growing and getting stronger but connective tissue starts talking back. Messed around with bands off and on the last few years but after watching your video where you lifted a dumbbell using a band, I realized “Duh! I guess bands can offer resistance like weights”, and I decided to give it at least an 8 week Band-Only try…I’m loving it! About 4-5 weeks in and my shoulder has quit clicking, hands aren’t falling asleep, and the convenience factor is like none other. Hypertrophy has improved too, especially in the delts! Just got back from Arkansas, took 2 sets of Undersun bands with me as a carry-on, and worked out in our Airbnb while on vacation. Even arms one night while cooking eggs.

I am very grateful for this video James! I am a men's physique bodybuilder and I have been told in the past that my back is an area to focus on by some of the judges. I got to work right away using these techniques and definitely incorporating the bands into my back workouts has helped considerably. I am 51 years old now so proper technique, bands and a solid diet are basically keeping the dream alive (those with a solid relationship with God). Thank you for all that you do brother!

You could also use straps around the elbow/tricep area to pull down, which will eliminate the biceps completely.Easy to make strap which includes a handle to keep the straps in place while the arms are straight at the beginning of the pulldown.

100%. I've done it with the bands and it works well. It's a small range of motion but it definitely helps someone get a sense for what a good contraction in the lats should feel like
@hardcorehouse
@hardcorehouse 2 жыл бұрын
Exactly: this is what I do. It becomes similar to a pullover that is extremely intense, very directed at lats. Same idea as pulldowns with elbows back that reduces biceps involvement, but better

Great information thank you. When I used to go to the gym I preferred doing reverse grip pull downs and the same grip for barbell rows
@JamesGrage
@JamesGrage 2 жыл бұрын
Hey Andrew. Thanks my friend. Just remember, when doing reverse grip it's even more important to focus on pulling those elbows down as it is very easy in that arm position to use a lot of biceps. That's why a "chin-up" with hands supinated is more biceps and a pullup with hands pronated is more back

Hey James love your channel and your products. I bought my first set of undersun bands from you 2 years ago and used them extensively they are still in great working condition. Bought a set mor my 36 year old son last year as well. 2 things I was hoping you’d address in upcoming videos 1; doing full body WITHOUT an anchor point. I’ve learned several angles and ways to exercise the muscles without an anchor point. And 2 maybe a discussion of the HIT theory made famous by Mike Mentzer. I believe this can also be applied to bands for the same results and am testing that theory out myself. Thanks for bringing bands to a game changing level👍🏻

Very nice educational videos, James. I first was introduced to resistance tubes with handles when I got certified to teach Les Mills CX-Worx (30-minute core classes.) I immediately enjoyed the "pressure" (i.e., resistance) I felt in all three planes of motion and all the way through the exercise in a dynamic way. Now that I have a good foundation for using the resistance tubing with handles, I'm going to try the bands. Though there is the potential concern with tubes and bands in that they can snap and cause injury (very rare if the tubes and bands are taken care of and stored properly), other than that I see no downside. When I was a trainer several years ago, I always incorporated basic resistance tube work into clients' training regimens, particularly those clients who travelled. I continue to enjoy the feel of progressive and dynamic resistance. Thanks for what you're doing. All trainers should know at least the basics of this modality!
