Thanks bro.
Thank you Marco
This should be in the video description for speed surfers!
Thanks 🙏
You know, I love the fact that you're showing going to exhaustion, not being able to complete 10, etc.
A lot of workout videos, it's really about the 'coach' trying to impress the 'students', whereas this feels real, and educational. Makes me respect you far more.
Great chest workout! Thank you😊
Agreed, it's actually pretty encouraging and motivating for me to see an experienced fitness person working to their limit, that they're not superhuman. 🙂
edit: That said, I probably couldn't even do one pushup with the medium band
Well said I feel you
I agree with you. Watching someone train to failure makes it more relatable
Exactly, it’s refreshing to see a coach not trying to impress, but actually just going for it and not being afraid to show he’s struggling.
I find band training to be so much better than the gym. No waiting in lines, single equipment does the work of all equipments, saves me money on memberships.
I've never felt my muscles work so hard and through a full range of motion since working with bands. Resistance bands are incredible.
Every since I started watching James Grage videos, I must say I'm much more fatigue and exhausted when I work out with bands over weights. His videos taught me to the proper techniques and quality reps of my workouts. By far, some of the best things I've learned in my life. Now I love working out. Thank you James for these great videos.
you should check out the intelliWeights AI trainer for bands.... insane. it measure fatigue. pros can go into the 60%
This set comes with 5 bands of varying resistance, a storage bag, th-cam.com/users/postUgkxS7ex6L4sMqpaTn4LnBPyBmRQsSingL8y a small pamphlet with some sample exercises, and an access code for an online workout video. I haven't viewed the online video, so I cannot speak to the quality of that piece of the set. However, everything else is perfect for what I was looking for. The bands are durable, and the resistance strength varies enough between bands that they're each useful for different exercises and provide a great challenge as you gradually increase the resistance level for certain exercises. The only band I don't use very often is the lowest resistance band, but even that is nice for exercises that target weaker/seldom used muscle groups.
Hamds down THE best resistance band trainer in the world. Recent convert to bands here - two weeks in amd OBSESSED with this training. Absolutely love it
I received a set of band from my brother a few days ago. I spent the next 72 hours looking for an online coach. Thank you James, for the thorough explanations as well as the guidance. Your videos quickly rose to the top. I'm 62 years old and recovering from multiple back surgeries a few years ago. This is perfect on so many levels and for so many healthy reasons as I'm traveling financial consultant and rarely have time to visit a gym, even one if I could build it in my own house.
Speaking as someone who is spending a lot of time at home right now, this is a godsend! Also, speaking as someone who actually configures the type of doors you have here, you’re best bet is to thread that door anchor above the butt hinges on the hinge stile of the door! Maximum stability of the door and frame is on those points, and you don’t have to worry about being on the outswing or inswing side of the door!!! Also, the hinges will prevent the anchor from sliding up or down the clearance between the jamb and the stile! Anchoring near the locking mechanism can put undue stress on the latch and cause it to wear or malfunction over time. Hope this helps and thanks for these RBT videos!!!
"The more I stretch it, the harder I get." 15:57 I have the same problem
Although you're probably going to want it pretty tight :)
Nope still soft...darn
Dead ☠️ 💀
He knew he fucked it up as soon as he said it 😂💀
Strange....I got that problem too...
there is no failing here its just pushing yourself to the limit! i love it
👊
Your Physique is PROOF! I've been using Resistance Bands for 10 years! I'm STILL blown away by the results. After injuring myself long-term for over 20 years of Bodybuilding with STEEL, I couldn't believe the strength and refinement I achieved through the bands. Learning new techniques watching you Brotha, Thanks!
May I know your physics? Thinking to replace the gym with the RB, not sure whether I can still gain as effectively..
i will be honest at first i thought this guy is just talking nonsense to get people to buy his bands, but i tried it for myself and he is pretty legit.
you don't have to buy his bands. there's tons of bands out there. he has his brand so he advertises it. btw, there are 3 heavier bands than the ones he sells. they're colors are blue, orange grey.
@@SapiaNt0mata not undersun there isn't, all orange
I like that you give clear instructions and reasons for the movement without getting overly technical
👊
As an OTR driver and someone who loves fitness, this has helped me tremendously.
I appreciate all the videos and useful tips.
Is it really helpful? Can You build muscle with these while on the road trucking?
Using bands as part of cardiac rehab course and it has surprised me how much they have built muscle and aerobic fitness. Your video is excellent. Thank you... MT
James, thank you!
👊
Protip: when doing push ups if you place your feet top side down instead of standing on your toes (like gymnasts do) you'll shift even more weight to your upper body. Additionally you get a tad of that tibialis anterior stretch which never hurts
This makes me feel so much better to see this muscle man struggling to pump out eight reps of pushups.
He does it with power resistance bands 🔥
He is doing it well. It's not the weight is the technic.
@@mpereirawolf it's both tbh
I know Right 😱
You made it seem like he's doing regular bodyweight only push ups lol
i been working out with resistance bands for a few years since i have back problems and i feel like its the best workout because it's as if there's always constant resistance. great video.
Saw him using the extra heavy band , and i have a gofit extra heavy band that i can only use for shrugs and dead lifts so i tried to do pushups with it and couldn't even do one lol, back to the drawing board
James is a monster...I have seen him doing one hand shoulder press ....I couldn't even do that even with the heavy one
This video deserves soooo many more views.
It doesn’t.
I was getting some wrist pain doing the banded push-ups (coming from the band pulling _up_ against my wrists) so I got some push-up handles and the pain is completely gone, letting me focus on just the form and my chest. Hope this helps someone!
THANK YOU FOR THIS CHEST TRAINING WITH THE BANDS. IAM TRANSITIONING TO RESISTANCE BANDS FROM FREE WEIGHTS. I HAVE TRAINED MOST OF MY LIFE STARTING IN THE 1960'S WITH FREE WEIGHTS WHEN THERE WERE NO MACHINES OF ANY TYPE. SO NOW I AM OLD AND WANT TO TRAIN SMARTER NOT HARDER. I LOVE THE FEELING THE BAND WORKOUT GIVES AND WILL CONTINUE TO USE BANDS MORE THAN FREE WEIGHTS. BODY BEAUTIFUL IS OVER NOW IT IS TIME TO GET STRONG THE SAFE- WAY WITH RESISTANCE BANDS. LOVING IT A LOT. THANKS AGAIN.
This is freaking awesome. I've recently ordered a set of bands to do the exercises in your videos. Big thanks again ,matt.
Train by feel, not by numbers, absolutely great advice. I see so many people not doing that and just happy to do a little bit more than last time when it could've been much more.
Yep that’s how I train and I see very good results at 60
Tracking numbers is key to progressive overload
There's another factor with pre-stretching the same band for more resistance. Some bands can only handle twice the length to stretch, so there's a point of pre-stretching where your band doesn't stretch but is just being pulled apart and you'll need a heavier band to not break it.
Resistance bands are extremely underrated. But all the fitness people who know what they're talking about mention them with respect. That's really all I need to know.
I just purchased a five band set (Sorry, not UnderSun) and videos like this have really helped. I love doing dumbbell exercises like laying chest press (floor not bench) but my 50lb powerblocks are entirely too light. So for the last week I've been finding ways to integrate my bands, and I'm finding that I'd like to use the bands as more than just a finisher or an assist. The more videos I watch the more I want to throw in 1-2 weeks here and there of nothing but band exercises (circuits, heavy traditional formats, HIIT). Thanks for helping a fella find ideas to elevate his training, it's much appreciated.
I just don't want to go to the gym so got the resistance band and I found you. Man you are an angel
Keep up the good work
As a personal challenge, I'm taking 122 days and only using bands (and a little heavy bag work for cardio) in my workouts to see what kind of transformation I can make happen. I need to lose fat while building a little and mainly toning up. I'll be using this video as a guide.
Just stumbled across this channel. I have nana but don't use them much. Definitely going to try these exercises out. These videos are gold. He explains form, muscle groups movements, variables of exercise, ect.
Thank you sir for your amazing and wonderful tutorial about resistance band. actually it saves time and money for fitness. God bless.
So thankful for these videos. Corona V made me search for other ways to get and stay fit.
this is good and smart! EFFECTIVE and blessedly compact and portable! thanks!
I love resistance band workout !
I have both weights and resistance bands love em both but I can really get a good work out with the bands with weights I really have to gear myself up to use them. I also use more range of motion with resistance bands, therefore, working more of the muscles. I do love my weights though for certain movements.
Just started using it for 2 weeks now and I'm seeing changes. Thanks bro for this info.
Excellent video James. "keep holding on to the band. It will keep you from falling over" NOW YOU TELL ME!!🤣🤣
Folks like James,Achv Peak and Austin Dunham and the legend Jeff Cavalier are great resources during a time like this. Over the years they have consistently put out content for those who prefer to work out at home or outside of the gym environment.
on my one month mark doing these workouts by James and ill say I feel stronger and more complete range of motion for my muscles versus dead weight only on concentric movements.
Resistance bands work all the muscles through a range of motion so you may feel a deep soreness when using them as opposed to the more jerky motion of weights.
Great video! I always anchor the bands on the hinge side of the door so it cannot open.
love how he says "this isnt just one of those kinda get it in workouts that you just do whenever you get a chance cause you can't make it to the gym." and his very next sentence is "you can do this at the office, the backyard, the house, traveling, wherever"
fabulous..the gym is closed my boxing class is closed..yoga is closed..the virus is hard on my exercise but this is great. thanks many people including myself..need exercise as a med for neurological illness...this really helps
Just discovered band training and began training consistently with bands this year.
Absolutely love it!
Even pushups are hard enough to make you breathe heavy. It's way different than weights
This video is so underrated. Thank you for all the value you added!
I use the heavy band lying on my back with dumbells. It allows me to bring the dumbells together across chest and get a benefit I can't get with normal bench press or pushups.
"If you don't want it smacking you in your junk, just take out slack" 36:44
'...like putting a spoon in our mouth without jabbing ourselves in the eye..." 25:20
LOL..I'm dead! Thanks for the great videos. They are very well done, and you put a lot of info in them. Just got undersun band set and started Build program. Loving it so far.
I've been doing TA2 for 11 months now.
It's still helpful to watch a video like this once in a while to check my form. It's easy to get sloppy.
I don't know what it is, but James's program is easy to follow and easy to self motivate. You won't catch me in a gym.. too lazy 🤣
One of the many positives to bands is that you can come up with an endless amount of exercises and methods for using them. It is all about using your imagination.
One of the most likeable muscle bound men I’ve ever seen. Does sugar coat or pretend he’s tougher than the workout! Love these
Thanks for you support Ryan!
@@JamesGrageUndersunFitness meant to say doesn’t * :)
James, I love your info and your channel, my only criticism is that the videos kinda lengthy. Keep up the great work, brother!
Awesome. So helpful for lockdown fitness!!
I got lost outside of the gym too, you should check out the intelliWeights AI trainer for bands.... insane
Which brand makes the best Loop Resistance Bands for women will little muscle tone?
Great instructions! It's great for women too!
Don't resist the band's bro ! Resistant army ! Good stuff 💣💣💣💥💥💥💥
Straight forward and tough
James thanks so much for the video.
Im migrating out from gym for good and thanks to your videos I got alot of great ideas to keep in shape.
Great workout, just what I was looking for, especially that last exercise. Thanks for posting!
I love your workouts James - The fact that you are humble enough to go to exhaustion and reduce resistance to get the job done. Shows you are human after all. Great job.
This is such great stuff. Can’t thank you enough for putting this together.
I'm sold. Great video. Keep them coming
Great info James!! You are so right about the eccentric aspect of movement! So many go too fast with aspect and miss half the benefit of the workout! As far as bands are concerned alot of people want to bang and clang with barbells and stay away from bands ! After all bands don't make the attention getting noise of weights! Thanks for your great information!
Donnie Cain a car, a cat, a lot. A lot.
Very well done brother,good to see another person doing this.Guy all you need for a door anchor is a old car seat belt which is better because you can put three knots on it,which gives extension
This video is So very very Helpful Thank you so very much
In addition to the excellent instruction and high quality bands which I purchased from the site, that looks like a great patio to party on! Gorgeous house. Congratulations James!
👊
glad I stumbled across your page. Ive never really worked out with weights. Always an athlete, basketball, baseball, tennis... but now at age 50, I dont play those sports anymore. The gut kep growing.... I was about to hit the 200lbs marker, and that was it for me. Did Insanity and started using their meal plan and I have dropped to 178 lbs. Now im ready to add some strength training to my workouts. Damn sure didnt like the cost of weights, so these resistance bands are perfect for me. I will be using your videos to teach me for sure.
If the resistance bands are the same length for all, wouldn't the length of your arms affect the overall stretch?
Example: Shaquille O Neil vs Danny Devito.
Would they feel the same resistance???
Really nice to watch your videos. You explain stuff well and i like watching your resistance band videos over others on TH-cam. Cheers from India!!!
👊
Excellent tutorial James I Love using Bands!
THESE BANDS ARE GREAT, MY SET DID NOT COME WITH 5 BANDS, AND THE MIDDLE BAND WAS NOT IN THE SET. BUT I STILL LIKE IT.
Awesome man. You are my online personal trainer from now on. I love Resistance bands !!! Thanks
Love these bands!!! The pump is insane!
Hey James thanks man your the best. I’ve completed several whole body workouts and thinking about splitting it up. Could you gives those interested in a routine like that and the number of days maybe like Monday Back and Biceps, Wednesday Chest and tri’s …. So on thanks…… I’m 74 now ha
I just answered my own question, I need to sign up for the TA2 program thanks
I firstly bought bands as helping tool to train pull ups, then I come across your channel. It was eye opening. If I can't go to the gym now I have bands, dumbells, and recently added 2 ketle bells, man there is no muscle that can't be trained.
Great informational video , right or wrong I also use a hand spring piece of equipment where you can attach up to 5 springs,handles on each end, great work out video
My gym membership up next week going to try resistance bands instead it's be good not having to wait to get on the cables and save money as well ,
If your serious about lifting, trust me . It ain't the same brother , u can't get any good squeeze as u would on actual weights. It's just not the same as iron
@@David-ex8ml Resistance is resistance, the body can't tell the difference whether you're throwing bales of hay all day long or pumping iron. In fact, these farm boys are oftentimes stronger than your typical gym rat.
@@ProdigalNomad Öften, Show me them! The best and fastest weight lifting and strength Progression is done by weights. You can Dose them well, Iron does not lose elasticity, gravity is every day the same, holds for more than 100 years, can be used in billions of excersize variations, but its difficult to take it with you! All proff athletes use Iron for progression, rubber bands are supplements, Iron is the core of your strength volume! Rubber bands is a money machine of your rubber band god.😃
I found if I twist the bands once or twice then they stay in the middle of my back a little better. Thank you so much for this awesome video! I’m waiting on two sets of bands and they should be here any day. I’ve been using some other kinds but they reek of chemicals
"I hate doing cardio" Hahaha don't we all. Great videos man !
well actually I love cardio prior to weights lol, I bought my set and can't wait to try it
Good show. Very impressed and being an advocate of resistance bands I can vouch just how hard it is..💪
it shows it is not the equipment necessary, it is the work you do that matters.
Awesome video 🏋️♂️🏋️♀️💪💪🧨🧨Resistance Band thanks for the info!!!
I love working out with resistance bands! This was very informative.
Excellent video on how to properly use resistance bands to sculpt your body!
I’ve been using bands of various styles now for over a year, love them! I bet now people are flocking to your content. Keep up the great content.
Can you actually build a little muscle usind bands?
Jorge Reyes did you not watch the video? lol this guys ripped and he only uses bands
so much in the world makes no sense. its so great to come here where things do make sense.
👊
Hi James Grage, greeting from dubai, just wanna have this same bands here please your guiding way really inspired me, I will appreciated if I could have same bands,
Well said brother, it's not about the weight. And keeping the rest time to a minimum - shorter and more intense seems way better
Have you every tried stroops bands they don't stretch your skin. They also have a lot of different options for door mounts
By twisting the band one time, so the strings cross in the middle of the back (creating an X), resistance band push-ups become much more comfortable and secure.
Good training tips and tricks. Thanks
Thanks a lot James
"The more I stretch this, the harder I get." Well said Muscle Man.
👊
This is an awesome chest workout with resistance bands. James could you do a tricept specific workout with bands? I really like your Biceps workout at the beach. Very effective. Thanks for what you're doing.
I've been doing my band workouts so wrong. Thank you for this video.
New subscriber here. Thank you for your straightforward descriptions & explanations of everything you are showing us. I have two bands with handles, but will be ordering those Undersun band set. Moved to a smaller home with no space for a fitness room. These bands & your workouts will be very helpful. 💪🏼👍
Great video. I’m a new personal trainer and after watching quite a few of your videos this weekend, I’m convinced that I should focus on using resistance bands in my training instead of focusing on other options. Would love to see you demonstrate how these bands can be used in conjunction with a stability ball for more stabilization & muscular endurance exercises. Keep up the great content! My bands & gloves are already on the way from Amazon!
You figured this out yet
Suddenly I’m a happier man upon finding these videos. I feel I have “my secret”.
Where can I get the gloves... your website says out of stock
I got them on Amazon
Wouldn't you put the door anchor on the other side so your not pulling in the direction the door opens?
