I really like using the pink bands on speed bench day. It really improves my explosiveness.
Bands can be used for dynamic day or max effort day. For speed bench it is best to alternate 3weeks of bands and 3 weeks of chains. For box squats bands can be used year round.
There are also several max effort exercises and assitance exercises...one of the best is using one pink band across your back and gripping in each hand while doing dumbbell ext. The best max effort use for bands for the bench is on the 4 or 5 board press where the tension is never released.
Because band work is so taxing on the nervous system it is recommended that you only use them on one exercise per training session.
