Hey Jordan,

Any new vids on the site coming soon? The latest one I can see is Sas in July

It has its place in training. Some use it to deload the bottom of the squat movement to save joints etc but a lot of the time I see people trying to use too heavy a band and using the band to slingshot out of the hole.

In all honesty I’m a fan of straight weight the vast majority of the time. When I do use bands I tend to use them in a standard fashion rather than reverse banding. I do this to alter the strength curve of the moment (more resistance at lockout) plus this way I don’t have to put so many plates on the bar. I never understand people who want to load and unload more plates than they have to haha.

Hi Adam. What is the difference between banding and reverse banding in relation to altering the resistance profile of a movement? Squats for example, it would be heaviest towards lockout using both forms of banding. Just curious as to why people choose one over the other. Thanks!

That’s great, thanks everyone!

Hi Jordan, merry Christmas. Just a quick one; I am pretty experienced in terms of training (around 10 years) but the training has been pretty inefficient as I followed a bro split for most of my life, and for the best part of the passed 7 months I haven’t been consistent with my training at all!

Do you think a full body split would be good to start up again with in the new year? Or would you say am I passed the stage of full body being effective.

Thanks mate,
Jordan
