So.. first time I've ever double-looped the bands like that. Both ends are looped around a DB at the bottom and the middle of the band is draped over the barbell. what does this mean? Pretty much, it's the full resistance of the band, roughly more than 6 feet of stretch going on there.. and MUCH more resistance than I've experienced before. I'm thinking 25-30lbs per band at the top. And not slack at the bottom, either. This is the way the bands SHOULD be.

Well, I overestimated my ability. I got stapled on the last rep of 155.. So I dropped down. The banded bench is ridiculously tough. I didn't expect that at all.
