nothing you cant do with bands ...
just with chains you can do suspended lifts, , and use them for DE days (w/ or w/o the bands) variation...
and i think that chains (the few that i have) have a smoother feeling to them than the bands..

I'm going to go for my 1RM on all my raw PL lifts (Bench, Squat Dead) this week. My poor performance last week on the bench has me rattled. I need to see where my PL lifts are. Watch out I may go physcho this week after my ME days..

im trying to get videos of me lifting up, but thats not going to well.. cant get my damn video acpture function of the video card to work.
Do you know any thing about lifting equipment, or are you just in the dark about all of it?

- Good Workout. Bands really add intensity. I focused 110% on from on my speed bench. Focused on pinching shoulder blades and flexing lats to 'row' bar on descent. It seemed to help. For example on a couple of sets my form was not as good and I could feel my tri's tire quicker. Hopefully I'm finding a groove.
btw, I found this article on Testosteron Mag entitled - "Five reasons your bench gets stuck at the bottom and what you can do about it" Very Good read and I think it helped pull together all you have been saying too.
