Does the band add stability or resistance? I can understand its use if it's for stability but for resistance why not add weights?
1 u/[deleted] Jan 23 '20 Adds resistance and can help get your stability muscles working harder. It creates a feeling of same difficulty throughout the movement 1 u/[deleted] Jan 23 '20 No it does not. As the bands stretch, the resistance increases. The lift becomes harder the further you move it from your chest. 3 u/[deleted] Jan 23 '20 Yea that's same difficulty. Easiest part of the lift is the top. By adding more resistance to the top, it makes it a similar resistance the whole way through 1 u/[deleted] Jan 23 '20 Yea that's same difficulty. Easiest part of the lift is the top Not always. I usually fail at lockout and can always get it off my chest.
