Thanks bro! You really got me to stop stressing about buying equipment. Now I use bands and boy it’s harder then I thought. I really underestimated these bands! Thanks so much!
İ watch lot of video about fitness but love and appreciate specifically your training. You explain very clearly and your way is very smart. I do always squat after than hip thrust for example because ı pre fatigue and activate my glutes so when I do squat, I don't have lot of stress in my knees or quadriceps or back in this way because my glutes works much more. I found same logique into your training system and I appreciate so much.
Hey man, these videos are great. I just got a set of your bands. Haven't had a chance to try them out yet but I'm sorry excited. I didn't even realize they were yours. I happened to discover you after buying them. You videos are super helpful and you really do a great job of explaining everything. Thank you for making all of these.
People forget that abs are like any other muscle in the body. If you want to get them to pop and emphasize that six pack look, partivulalry for men, you need to train them with resistance. Forget about all these HIIT workouts popping up on YT and instagram where you do dozens of sets of crunches, etc. Those are fine for fat loss.
If he doesn't see my post above can you ask him how big that ball is that he's using in this video... I feel like the one I have might be too big :( mine is 75 cm
Liked the video after the inclined reverse crunch. Before this I only did them on a flat bench and you can isolate lower abs with bottom chain movements to the core/belly hole
Great video!! I have spondiolythesis so must watch my back. This standing crunch is perfect for me as is the ball crunch. Really love these videos. I like to keep it simple with basic exercises. Thanks for your efforts.
Great video, looking forward to leg day. Bands are just another tool, just like cables were once the new kid on the block, so will bands become a standard
Love the vids bud, my bands should be showing up today. 5' 11" 225lbs of fluff looking to tighten up and strengthen my core, Thanks for the inspiration.
Great! Thank you👍 I’ll start using bands. I’m 57 years. What type of workouts and series do you recomend for me? Thank you my friend 👍 By the way,I’m from Brasil 👍
Amaury Guerra I am 58 and just started with the Undertthesun TA2 Body exercises(2 weeks) and James gives a great introduction into complete band exercises. You have probably learnt a lot in the 5 months, how is your progress and do you have any tips from what your learnt? By the way, I am live in Chiang Mai Thailand
First time I've seen you on YT, brilliant coaching, thank you. Do you have any advice for training around elbow tendonitis and/or training as you get older? I'm mid 40's and increasingly prone to elbow pain/injuries
Just found the channel. Loving it!! I’m recovering from a severe finger/hand injury and just can’t throw iron, so bands have been a life saver. No, really. Depression was creeping in to my psyche because of the injury. Not being able to go to the gym, etc started having a profound, negative effect on my mental health but......my gf did something wonderful for me & bought a set of resistance bands about a month ago. Something as small as receiving a resistance band set has been such a positive in my life. Ok, having said/typed that, the bands are low quality, so I need to upgrade. Any suggestions on a good set? Thanks for your time
Hey James, I've been following your routines around one month, and still very motivated about good results that training with bands could bring along with the free weight training. I would like to ask your opinion about one matter: when I do my routines I always try to effort myself until feeling that burn that we suppose to achieve doing muscle training, but the next day I don't feel as sore as I felt in the first week for example and I don't know if I'm doing my routine correctly. My question is: Is supposed that my muscles must sore the day after training always? If I don't feel sore the next day means that I'm not working properly? Once again, thanks for your videos!
This set comes with 5 bands of varying resistance, a storage bag, ru-vid.comUgkxS7ex6L4sMqpaTn4LnBPyBmRQsSingL8y 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.
I always recommend mixing it up a little, if for no other reason than having enough variety to keep your workouts different and interesting. Monotony can be a killer!
G'day James, enjoying the band workout vids, one question thou, if I'm training at home, and don't have a bench or ball access, are the ab exercises still doable? Thank you
for the first exercise, can't you just do it lying on the ground? a traditional crunch with resistance bands tied to something on the ground above your head
I don't remember which band it was. This was one of the reasons why I created Undersun Fitness and had custom bands in every size created so I can have something that I truly can recommend to people.
Thank you! I am spreading the word aboout your bands and program. Love your videos and explanations on how it all works. I ordered another set for my daughter and my brother ordered a set after telling him about you and the product. Keep up the good work. Hope you continue with more videos!!
I tried doing the stand-up crunches and though "Well this isn't too bad", and then I kept doing them, and then I wanted to die. So I guess it's working? xD
