 Does f*ck all for SugdenBarbell.co.uk Member 1, 7173 posts SQ 182.5, BP 110, DL 205497.5 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq Administrator | That's the first time I've seen any oly lifts done with chains or bands. I can't really see the point. | ||

 Eat.Cycle.Sleep.Win Member 2, 12511 posts SQ 190, BP 150, DL 280620.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq Administrator | I can definitely see why you might want to use bands and chains. But im just not sure of their applicability to the classic lifts. For assistance stuff definitely (fronts, backs etc), I also think that they could be very helpful on things like hang high pulls to teach you to finish the pull. Danny John has said on several occasions that he wishes he'd been doing fronts with chains all his lifting career. And a guy who posts on the P+B got his power jerk upto 400lbs by using bands pretty much every workout. The one thing you will have to be to get under a bar with bands on it is FAST, really f**king fast. | ||

 MIA Member 7, 621 posts SQ 80, BP 45, DL 125250.0 kgs @ 55kgs UnEq | The vertical jumps at the start are pretty impressive. He ain't no small guy. Talk about explosive power! | ||
