I like the idea of using 2 bands instead of using 1 really wide one, that was useful information, thanks Brandon!

I purchased resistances bands on March 13th. I probably got them 3 days later. (not from this site) And to date I have not used them. This is because I have looked all over KZbin for an instructional video that provided the information that I needed on how to use the bands, reps, etc. And guess what? I have just found it!! Thank you so much. This is what I needed.

Very informative videos! I'm buying a pull up bar, a wall mount, I can't wait to try these. I do machine assisted pull ups at the gym, I'm 200 pounds, 6'4. I generally need about 100 pounds of help to crank out 5-8 reps. Been going to the gym for over a year now, and it's my goal to get to unassisted pull ups. I have gains, but it's at a slow pace. It's a marathon, not a race, I'm in it for the long haul.

Bro thanks for this video. I never looked at the lower end of pull up assist bands. I've got a set of 5 resistance bands but I never feel like I can knock out a good set. I listened to what you had to say, ordered the thick orange one (I'm currently 210lbs) and I'm hopeful this can get me to doing a 2x a week pull up workout with a decent number of reps. You said '12' reps in your vid, but real talk if I can get a solid 8-10 I'll be thrilled. I'm working on my goals and appreciate your knowledge.

This video is perfect I just got to pull up station yesterday I used it the best that I could I can't do a single pull up I'm going to look into getting one of these bands, but in the beginning as we get stronger perfect technique is not important right? Is it okay in the beginning once we build up the strength to do a pull-up it doesn't have to be perfect it can be wobbly wiggly until the full strength is finally developed?

I would say that this is the best video on the topic of resistance bands as pull-up assist. I like the idea of using two bands instead of one. Also I like that you have given an approximation of how much weight should the band take (that's the info I was looking for). I would also suggest to people who have an option to buy either rubber or textile resistance band, to always opt for textile since they are more resilient and much more comfortable when in skin contact. I'll soon start my journey with a goal to do the first pull-up ever.

I started using a yellow band around the knee. Doing assisted pull-ups. It's the thinnest one at my gym (maybe similar resistance to the purple one in the video). I can do about 5 full pull-ups unassisted. And about 10 using the band. I'm wondering how much body weight the band subtracts? I'm about 62 kg body weight. I have been using the assisted pull-ups machine previously and had it on the hardest setting (20kg assistance). When I use the band it feels at a similar amount of assistance as the assisted pull up machine. I'm not sure what would be better to use? I'm guessing the band is better because it's more like an actual pull-up technique rather than the machine (knees resting on the padded platform).
@ClenchFitness2 ай бұрын
Overall, I think either option is fine for assistance! In addition to practicing pull ups, make sure you're continuing to do strengthening exercises to help build up your overall pull up strength! Here's a video with some exercises to incorporate as well! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXO7ZoSDppuoiKMsi=kMqWibmPgA5huXoS It's hard to say exactly how much assistance you're getting from that band without knowing its resistance range. That would be something the manufacturer of that band would know.

I picked up the blue and green band recently. For some reason, I could not get either if them below my knee at all. Same rack height as in the video too. I tried all the pull-up racks in the gym, even stood on a chair lol. However, I noticed that you managed to pull it down from the top. I'll try that, hopefully it works.

If you have a box or a chair, it may be easier to grab the pull up bar, then step down into the band with your foot and lower yourself into position rather than trying to get it on your knee.
