What vacation thread? I’m only on here for a few minutes a day.

FFS, do you already have Alzheimers? An average toddler has a longer attention span than you :o

I'll go one further and say right now a gnat has a longer attention span than me. Remind me of that thread.

No, I am serious.

I am changing my whole training routine around.

No more just barbells and dumbbells.

Trying to incorporate kettle balls and resistant bands and other such training methods.

As one gets older, one has to change around their workout for longevity.

But, the thing is, Ive really only used barbells and/or dumbbells, so I don't know much about other training methods or equipment.

Seriously though, bands are great when used on free weights.

They also go well together with Hammer Strength machines

You mean, for example, attaching the bands to a barbell while bench pressing?

I love resistance bands and they came in handy since I solely trained people at their homes.  Compact, portable and a wide range of different exercises that you can do.   The flat strap bands I mainly used for training legs.


Some of you have doubts so I'm putting up this video to watch

Almost every back, chest and delt & hamstring machine. Esp their seated hamstring machine, since the resistance is much less when you fully contract your hams.
The incline with bands is great as well, esp when you suffer from rotator issues like me :-\
