Advanced Training Tip of the Day: Overload via Band-Resisted Drops
Want to level up your strength training? Try band-resisted drops. Attach resistance bands to a barbell, load it heavier than your max, and perform controlled negatives. Once at the bottom, ditch the bands and rep out with just the barbell weight. The overload forces your muscles to handle more tension on the descent, priming them for explosive growth. It’s like a sneak attack on your gains—and your ego, because yes, it’s as tough as it sounds. Perfect for deadlifts, squats, or bench press.
