weight bands worth it ?

[tobrien]

there is a lot of buzz in my gym about using bands with compound lifts like squat and bench press. we had a guy come in who is a competitor and he was using them and doing some insane weight. so we come to talk to him and he let us have one to try and now several of us are using them. what do you think about them?

I dont like to use weight bands, they make me feel like I'm limited too much.

i've never used them myself, i like to lift the way i fuck which is RAW

its just like many other movements, exercises, etc... they are good in moderation or to mix in... you always want to throw different things at your body when training to get the best long term results so they definitely serve a purpose...

They're a tool, same as chains etc. I've a set of bands in my gym

Just an accessory to alter resistance. Nothing magical. Just another tool in the shed

I haven't used them but nothing wrong with using different tools that are out there.
