I don't undertand one thing: he passed to an excercise to another with no rest just like in normal superset with freeweights, is that right? 20 and 20....rest +10 and 10 rest (x2).... 15 and 15 rest (in peace XD)

This band series has been fantastic. I've been re-evaluating a lot of my exercises and trying to use bands instead of dumbbells and while there are times where I still prefer the pump I get from weights overall there are several exercises where using bands not only gives me a bigger pump and more muscle soreness but the range of motion is usually better and as such I have seen gains in areas where I had started to plateau. Thank you so much for these videos James. You rule!

[@dmac5472]

And nowadays with gyms closing, James' programming and series is even more useful. I've always had atleast 1 resistance cable or some improvise weight ever since the teen yrs(37 now) but I was never really consistent. I like how James has provided a strong way for ppl to stay fit using what can be a cheaper alternative to gym memberships(tho I have one) and with the ease and convenience of working out anywhere. It takes most of the excuses out of the picture.

[@captainscentsible1811]

I prefer bands for arms over dumbbells. When failure happens you can adjust. And get more reps.

Used bands with barbell and cage in last 4 years, reverse method, benchs, reverse rows etc added often chains too, they work great, in last 3 months decided to use just bands for back, i have bands up to 250 lb total resistance, back improved, just use bands as weights: Add reps a/o resistance, muscle need tension, it doesn't know difference between iron and rubber 🙃

[@marklevine5844]

that's what she said lol

[@nolimits8744]

I've been using resistance bands for about 7yrs now on and off with weights. There's no doubt about it bands are just as good if not better than weights.

[@pointtheblame]

I am using bands now because of the pandemic restrictions and I cannot get any near as good training feeling as I did with free weights ...

[@supimsatan]

@@pointtheblame Maybe you got the wrong bands.

[@Vampeere]

pointtheblame honestly I’ll advice getting all the various sizes of bands (if you don’t already have em) because they can all be used for different workouts and the difference in resistance helps and changes how every workout feels. I got mine in 5 different sizes and try to workout everyday and from my experience, the bands are worth it and help me feel that great pump and soreness that I’ll normally get from weight training. Definitely gonna incorporate bands into my workouts when the current situation is over.

[@pointtheblame]

@@Vampeere I have a set of four which I am combining and I have the door anchor but still i see that I am loosing muscle. Anyway at least it is some sort of training. The pecs are the hardest to maintain with resistance bands I think

[@sheed321]

@@pointtheblame rep speed can also be the reason. With bands, you will want to slow you positive and negatives and focus on contraction

[@sentry9834]

Bands are great, I really like them in tandem with weights. They are really good finishers. Also I like the cable style movements. So many possibilities with minimal equipment.

[@TheMerovingi]

James, all i can say is thank you! I am from Hungary i ised to work out at a gym, but me and my girlfriend moved to an another place because of work. Now i don't have time nor possibility to go to a gym. This complete body band workout series is helped me get back in the pace. I can do every body part with your techniques, so thank you very much, keep up the good work. One more thing, i would be very happy and amazed if you give a small reply to me.

[@seabreezeof]

I do theses, but when I am at the down position with body firm and straight I twist/rotate each hand individually inward towards middle of back for more stretch. Thanks James

[@avishaifindysz5177]

I get the craziest looks when I rock the resistance bands!!! I just smh!! These fools just don't know........yet!! Thx again James!!

[@markmaggott5423]

Love your band workouts. Bought myself some bands and there great. More videos using bands please.

[@OsmiumFist]

Another excellent video James. All the little tips and pointers really make a difference. Many thanks for the effort. I'm on disability as I have prostate cancer so to get so much great advice right here in my home for free is fantastic. Us regular band users know how damn strong you have to be to pump out sets with that green band. Big boys band I call it LOL.

[@HerveAttia]

James Grage's resistance bands video are the best.

[@DesertHack]

Thank you for your videos. Its completely changed the way I lift and its really improving my strength with an injured shoulder. Game changer for me. Gracias

[@cryptosiris8231]

These bands are really good for tension, essentric slow down rep and holds. Good if you do a heavy, stretch, pump type full body workout. As soon as the reps feel easy, just grab a little further down or increase reps. Gains!

[@wgbowlesiii]

Goin' to the park to do this workout today. Thanks to you James for breakin' down the conventional wisdom to prove you can do something different to build a great physique and keepin' the fun in fitness. I've learned a lot from you and am seeing great gains again due to the knowledge you've imparted. Keep up the great work and please keep posting!

[@michaeldeluca9231]

I really enjoyed the band workouts I am incorporating hit in split training as well I like the bands cuz I get tension on both ends of the movement of I'm 48 years old and I'm starting to see some results all positive stuff which is good thanks again keep making those videos.

[@rhoshe9629]

Hey James I’ve been watching the whole entire band series and I absolutely love it. I’m currently a college athlete and I was just wondering if I’ll put on as much mass in the same time frame if I were to use resistance bands instead of free weights and machines?

[@babak1158]

The band-series has been spot on !! When is the rest (shoulders, legs) due?

[@LiftedSeven]

Thank you for your videos, James. I am travelling through Europe and I saw someone using cable in the gym, and you gave me a full idea about the cables and their possibilities. Just ordered 4 of them. Different resistances.

[@chrispotterfan]

The great thing about bands is you dont have to carry heavy weight around or put plates on or off and it still hits your ass. I switched completely to bands and I feel Im improving more than with weights.

[@deadondave9251]

Love it. I've been using dumb bells and bowflex , using the bands as my superset in between. I think the program you spoke of being able to workout outside really hit with me. Any time you can make it more convenient and time efficient , you're gonna do more. Thanks

[@regprofant6984]

So what bands are you using here? The ones you mentioned are all orange and not multiple colors you use here

[@JamesGrage]

I'm not quite sure the name of these, but I can truly stand behind the products made by Undersun Fitness.

[@karimhadri5009]

I love resistance bands best for ever Keep going bro you are in the right way 💪😊

[@kroohhh]

I have been using bands for couple of months now. The technique definitely takes a lot of practice and it's hard to get the feel on some exercises. My biggest problem with bands is that I don't like how they strain my hands and make my hands hurt more than on free weights even with gloves on. I have yet to decide whether I will use free weights or bands most frequently.

[@fullxeclipse]

You can purchase some grips or handles to help with that.

[@stevenzak199]

I agree that bands are great, though I'm curious why you only use the looped kind and never the straight kind (e.g. Bodylastics) with a carabiner at each end. I do like the idea of taking a week or two off of weight training and just doing bands, though I think a band shortcoming is that the amount of resistance is less precisely measured (you back up a bit, or choke up a bit, but you get how much resistance exactly?). I also like bands combined with weights -- e.g., for bench press, a straight-type band hooked to an ankle strap at one end of the barbell, threaded under the bench, then up to the other end of the barbell. You get weight resistance at the bottom, then ever-increasing band resistance as you press up.

[@Brockthedog315]

Steven Zak I definitely prefer bodylastic bands. They also have the string inside the rubber band so that if they break they won’t snap and injure you.

[@stevenzak199]

True, and they're more versatile for combining with barbells for, e.g., squats and bench presses. That said, I can see why James would like the looped kind, if only because you can grab them anywhere without your hands slipping to the ends as they do with slick bands like Bodylastics. Which is why I have both.

[@thethinker9267]

That's a bit difficult to answer seeing as bands get progressively "heavier" as you stretch them, i.e. using the yellow at its fullest length and just beyond completely slack might "weigh" just a couple of pounds. However, if you've already stretched it, say 10 inches for example, its "weight" starts to increase exponentially. But you probably already knew this obviously. What I did was to experiment quite a bit. At this stage I'm very familiar with my bands. I know what band to use at which length, to fail at 12 or 13 reps for my first set for a particular exercise. If I want to progress, I know which bands to use in combination, and at which length, to fail at 10 or 11 reps for my second set. And so on, and so on. I'm very anally retentive, so I constructed an entire worksheet containing what bands to use at which lengths for what exercises. If I'm eventually able to do more than 13 reps on my first set I use a different combination or different band entirely on my next workout for that particular muscle group and that particular set. Not as simple as free weights where the weight is written in big bold lettering on the sides, but if you know your bands it's a piece of cake. The best would be to have multiple thinner bands - not just one or two. Maybe three or four.

[@Mr2004MCSS]

Loop bands are more versatile as you can do quite a few more exercises that are not attached to something compared to Bodylastics bands. You can also attach loop bands around objects a lot easier. You have to have some type of attachment accessory to attach Bodylastics to objects because Bodylastics does not recommend wrapping the band around something and then putting the band through the caribiner. I have had Bodylastics bands since 2012 and love them as well but I prefer loop style bands.

[@deanwaller8283]

Honestly?why would you care about measuring the "weight" with bands? All that matters are the results,who cares how much it weighs?

[@MrJohnblaine]

so great all around other then being in lockdown, I'm seeing with bands in gyms once its open too. I've been doing your programs for 2 weeks at home and my body is changing fast! More that weights in gyms.
