Nice workout bro!! Glad that you made the switch to GP ROWS I love 'em!

With the bands on there... what's the total max poundage if you were to use the full resistance of the bands and the weight? curious how that works... and does it get harder as you reach the apex/lockout on Bench? Like chains do?

I was using the smaller purple bands, doubled up tho so they have tension even on the bottom of the lift...

It works on the basis of chains, as the bar gets lower to your chest its easier, when ur going through the apex of the lift it is already getting harder by the inch. so basically every inch the bar goes up another 10-20lbs is added to the bar. (in theory)

Bands IMHO should be used for speed/explosive training. I feel the bands and the 2s pause i did will really help me explode through the lift and get good momentum on heavy heavy lifts.

MY gym has all these bands to use

So when i am able to really explode through the lifts w/ decent weight ill chnage the bands.

LOL i know, i was walking in it yesterday and i was like WoW this is a CLEAN/UPDATED Power Gym.

When i walked in couple of the usual PL's were in.

This guy rob was sqauting 900+ lol and i come in and he was like thank god i needed a spot (he already had 2 other dudes lol)

its great that the GYM owner is an EX PL w/ a ton of trophies and shit.

The best part was last week, the DL Platform is close to the front room kinda next to the aerobics room. I was controleld dropping 435 lbs. He came over like he was gonna yell, and seen it was us and just watched lol

So if ur ever in NY everything is on me =]
