One tip I found useful for this unit - keep one handle on one end of the strap then just adjust the other one to where you need it and just move the strap to position. Hopefully I explained it so it made sense. Enjoy your iso strap 👍

Decent. I prefer a one arm standing press with the band or bands anchored at the bottom of a door. More resistance with better strength gains. Can twist the body into the press for more explosive power and athleticism.

Agree with you that most people do not think about legs/leg exercises with rings. Always have to listen to your opinions as you come up with gems and overlooked exercises every so often. I would add sissy squats to your list of ring leg exercises. These can be tortuous in a good way.

Can also use a skateboard or rolling dolly for hamstring curls. I personally do step ups on a plyobox for quads and glutes and single leg calf raises with a superset of 30 wall leaning tib raises for minimal equipment ‘legs’.

Which Swissies would you recommend for doing band deadlifts and pull downs with?

If you have a suspension trainer save $ use it.

Great video. I use a decathlon suspension trainer its got nice qulaity and works just the same for a fraction of the price.

Rings really humbles you. I mix some rings with commom weighlifting exercises and i think one complements the other. Good Video.

Cool video 💪🏼

Nice workouts man keep up the hard work

I have a 50 lb V Max weight vest ,along with my 3 sets of Undersun bands are a perfect addition to body weight exercises like you said, I do want to get a set of the Angles 90 grips, also thank you for the advice on the desk cycle question I asked you the other day, I appreciate it. I have a question, what are your thoughts on kettlebell training?

Not bad, decent workout. The squats and hip thrusts are good. I never got much out of the standing ab crunches and the calf raises looked more like an exercise in trying to keep your balance so I will pass on those as well. As far as abs are concerned, I like doing the crunches laying on the floor with the band anchored to the door and the other end around my chest and then crunch up. Good burn that way. The core rotations are good for the obliques and build athleticism. Good job 👍. Lots of different ways to use bands, you just scratched the surface. Liked the background music 🎶

More leg days.

Another great video Jonathan thank you I do have a question for you on a different subject. I’m going to have to have some knee replacement surgery coming up here before too long. Do you have a suggestion for a under the desk bike that you could recommend? I’m going start looking around for one because I’m gonna need one of those at home for part of my rehab. If you have any suggestions that be great thank you.

Luv gymnastics rings! They’re great for dips and muscle-ups too. Thanks for the video.

Nice video, JP! In the positive or concentric phase, you can make the T2 as hard as you want AT EVERY INCH of the movement. I liked it better than bands for this reason. Bands are hardest near lockout and easier in the beginning. Lots of science says training at longer muscle lengths (beginning of the move) is better than training at the end of the move (lockout). Bands work the opposite. There are some other popular devices that focus on the positive phase, like MaxPro. IMO T2 is way better than MaxPro AND way cheaper. I got away from T2 when I realized the force multiplier that made the positive as hard as you want makes the negative for the resisting arm VERY light. We are stronger resisting or lowering than we are lifting, so the eccentric phase is hardly stimulated at all on T2. Ultimately, I went with the Synapse CCR over the T2. With Synapse, I can make the positive phase AND the negative phase as hard as I want at every inch of the movement. The "price" you pay for that is you only work one arm at a time up and down. But in reality, you are only working one arm at a time on the T2 as well (alternating positive phases while the other arm rests on the negative). You should check it out. It costs twice as much as T2, but there's a 30-day grace period where you can return it if you don't like it.

Mine shows this posted at 1 am. Sleep is fitness, too. How is your sleep?

It’s all you really need. Got one of those Kensui vests , they’re really nice.

Adex seems to be a much better investment. If you’re serious about continuing your journey think about better tools.

No Angle90 grips?

For my pull-ups I'm really happy with my baseblocks big bar, it's not an eye sore in the living room, and really sturdy, sturdy enough for ring work. Also use the prosource dip station.

have you considered training exclusively with fabric bands? the common counterargument is that they dont get too high in resistance, but you could always stack them

Nice video 💪🏼

Nice review JP! I tried the knockoffs, but never warmed up to them. They were good for pulling exercises, but I found them wonky for push moves. Threading them through the end slots was time consuming.

Sent for mine yesterday.

I want them but theyre actually 90AUD here. So I had no choice but to get the knockoffs which are 20AUD.. look forward to your comparison video :)

Motivation. I have a suspension trainer that hangs in the garage. I never take it down. It is always ready, and I use it frequently.

The 🔑 piece of equipment is the one you’ll use. (:

I use resistance band since I'm always on the go. They are good, but if you really want to push yourself you will need a foot plate, a bar, handles and anchoring. And yeah, I would like to have a combination of both bands and weights at the same time.

The Duomanic Eleviaa is great, although I don't have their rings or the grip attachment. I also like the World Fit for travel.

Gunz!

Do you prefer the swivel or the fake angles90? Which would you get if you had to choose on

I think you can use carbiners for resistance bands so it mitigates that drawback

What are those pulley things on your pull up bar?

In any case, thanks for the review. 👍

If I knew they were going to come out with improved versions, I wouldn’t have bought the originals. Now I feel like I wasted my money.

No mow May?

Hey, what color band do you bench and deadlift? 😅 cool video 💪🏼

💪🏼

I need one of those.

Im glad.that I found your channel!

I'm not really into isometrics but I perked up when you mentioned Spanish squats... I imagine just having an adjustable loop that's strong could be useful for various things like adjusting a non adjustable suspension trainer, maybe over a tree branch or swingset perhaps and maybe to hang a dumbbell for weighted pull ups or dips. If it's inexpensive enough and versatile enough it could justify itself. And sure maybe I should try isometrics...too...

Nice workout. Let me see some pull-ups and handstand push-ups and some pull-ups using the bands for added resistance.

Another great video Johnathan, where did you get your footplate at? I need one like that.

This guy seems like a super smart and probably very unique guy to talk to.......so why make a channel as completely mundane and redundent as "fitness and food"? I can't imagine God is happy that we have deformed our lives with social media.....the amount of hatred I feel for the state of modern culture and economy cannot be measured.

The bent over row looks good man, but the chest flys don’t seem like they’d be optimal since the actual length of the band isn’t really changing throughout it, it stays the length of your arm because it’s anchored right by your shoulders. It looks like it’s just working out the extension of your arm statically. If you stood and gripped the bands and pulled them vertically out in front of you, you’d be recruiting more chest and under a load/resistance path more in line with the chest movements, imo. Either way, keep working hard man!

Well, that was impressive and I'm glad I don't have to track all of those down and pay for them! Did you ever do a stand alone review of the Five Below one? It seems like that might be the best bang for the buck winner... although the Angles 90 straps for about $25 might compete. Do you have handle suggestions for it though? In any event this is a good resource. I guess the main things missing might be Jungle Gym and NOSSK and I suppose plain Jane rings.

where can i get those sandbags?
