I'm just wondering how band tension is determined? You say 120, but how precise is that? Looks like 2 minis on each side, but then length from where they are anchored have to factor in. I'm asking because I'm going to the gym again (work out..lapse...cycle) and want to use bands.
I train several of my clients using Westside methods. I have one HS kid who 9 months ago could not get 165 and is now close to 300. May not be close to the studs at Westside, but he is doing great. Another one weighs 118 and now squats 275. And he has cerebral paulsy. Westside is great. Keep it up guys.
Been working westside for 3 months now exactly like they are doing on the logs... December of 2010 I barely got 365 now around 450 raw bench will know exactly this monday and around 650 raw dead. Westside is the bestside and it works believe me it works...
Who's the dumbass? After watching your videos I'm laughing. We have girls at westside that use more weight than you for speed bench. You don't have a clue my man.
The single dumbest comment I've ever seen regarding lifting on Youtube. Shoulder problems related to "grip width" is an individual deal, not an absolute guarantee. You lift in a 24 hr family fatness club, don't you? You have no idea what you're talking about. Inbred, uneducated douchebags like you would be soundly defeated by the least of the females at Westside. Instead of acting like a coward (prob runs in your family) why not walk into westside and tell them to their faces??
@JS8700 dude i watched your vids too..what type of fool are you call anyone at west side dumbass especially jay fry? you realize this is a gym with numerous world records..fry being one of the best benchers..and your little ass is the expert? gtfo
Good stuff bro just recently started lifting with bands and blocks proven methods with real results good stuff man

hey jayfry can you tell me the advantages of this type of speed work? How can you also use this for other compound lifts such as squat and dips? thx

How come almost every bench presser lifts their legs up right after they put the barbell down....part of having good form?

@TheNoisePolluter I do the same thing, but it's usually because my muscles are burning.

I hope the guy doing the speed bench with the wide grip suffers serious shoulder problems for being such a dumbass.

I would say either Kuck or Boldt were the fastest imo.

What's the advantage of using bands, as opposed to just adding more weight?

overspeed eccentrics
make the bar move faster
and make it heavier at the top
teachers CNS it needs to accelerate as the weight is lifted
