Meant to ask you. Did the back squat get any easier for you now that you have the flater Geku footplate? Or still the same problems?

Still the same problem, especially after moving over to the Serious Steel Bands. I've actually added front squats back (even if I'm not a big fan) and then moved suitcase squats to Day 3 (Friday workout for me).

@@GamerBody Maybe use a lighter weight band for the back squats (so you can get under it) and do more sets/reps to make p for the lighter weight to overload your leg muscles?

Eh, I'd rather just stay safe and do another similar movement pattern. If you feel comfortable doing it though, I won't stop you.

It's basically for doing barbell roll outs.

Geku has been doing some great things lately! How are you liking the ab roller? Would you recommend it over doing cable crunches? Thanks for another great video, and I hope the test is going well for you!
@GamerBody3 ай бұрын
Yes. I would much rather do the ab roller wheel exercise than a cable crunch with bands, especially if you can crunch a lot of resistance. Eventually you will get pulled off the floor (similar to pull-downs). The only issue is progressive overload with the ab roller might be tough without additional weights. From testing so far, it may not be needed if I get good enough ab results with just bodyweight and reduced bodyfat.

Exactly what I thought! Yeah the crunches are starting to scare me since I feel it trying to fly me upwards haha. This is a great thing to consider. Thanks for your hard work man, you're truly a gem for the home gym scene!

Thanks, I'm waiting for more feedback regarding how durable it is as it will cost me around 135 dollars
@GamerBody3 ай бұрын
$135 USD for just the wheels? That is very high. Or are you referring to more equipment in the build as well?

Oh sorry I meant the standard bar with hooks that you reviewed last time

@@zanzabar7878 the new GEKU resistance bands bar (silver one may of Aluminum Alloy) has been awesome. Im using it with the Serious Steel Bands and it is withstanding that resistance very well so far. Might still be early, but loving it right now in my test.
