    Great video. I just ordered my Vector Athletics split squat band belt (11/1/24) because it felt awkward resting the x3 bar across my shoulders and I needed something to help keep the focus on my workout without the unneeded tension of the bar pressing against me. Thank you for recommending this product.

    Just about any attachment straps or belts for a cable machine can be used with carabiners for bands.

    Mike can you explain how the Vector Athletics Over Load Straps work and how they setup with the Vector Squat belt and when using a bar doing training with bands. The Vector web site doesn’t show the use of the Straps or a setup. Thanks

    • @hybridresistance
      @hybridresistance  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I'm looking at doing a video on this, but basically its for double looping band under a footplate and then extending the straps as low as you as you want say for back squats or to overload a shoulder press. You can see a brief clip of it here in a recent video th-cam.com/video/pMD6mpimt58/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HTD3xPhx22uy2F2u&t=511

    Thanks Mike, great review of the belt. Just ordered mine with your code. Can’t wait to get it. Wish it was able to handle a bar, in this case my Isomax bar. I usually do Isometric training first right before my dynamic exercises for that body part I’m training.

    Kinda of unrelated to the video, but that raised lunge you did off of your bench, is that more effective at hitting the glutes? That hight I would have to work up to probably, my knee might say no off the rip. That belt looks really cool by the way, it has me interested.

    Great review. I got mine a couple weeks ago and I'm still playing with it and configuring what's best for me. Belt squats are the best for me, I was doing them with the X3 black band as the belt and hooking dark grey X3 band, maybe green serious steel with my feet. Appreciate the review!

    Thanks for the discount code, Mike! I asked Max to add one of these to my delayed preorder for the Z-Bar and ship them when the Z-Bar is ready, but he actually shipped it ahead of time and it showed up yesterday. What a nice man to deal with! I haven't had chance to do a full workout yet, but I had a quick play yesterday and this thing is heavy duty. That seems to be Vector's deal, so now I'm even more excited for the Z-Bar!

    one of the best ways to squat is with a belt connected to a heavier band,but those vector bands fit my bill so i need to order some!and using bands and the belt on the total gym is a great idea mike!i think because the bands are directly connected to u the leg workout might be greater🤔 box squat yes,great video

    You can just use a regular lifting belt or loaded dip belt, wrap cushy towels around where you're threading through the loop of the resistance band. Then you wont ruin your resistance bands, and you avoid buying the belt 😂 at least you won't decrease the tension using lower hooks that decrease the stretch of the band 😂 makes the belt so redundant

      What can help is just keeping it stable with your hands on the first few reps. Main thing is making sure bar is secure. But I'm not sure unless without more information.
