it would make total sense if there were NO bands...

if he was trying to eliminate the concentric, unfortunately, he'd have to have spotters help each rep up, or just do a negative and hit pins, re-rack it, repeat..

the reverse band setup is practically pulling that bar off his back on the way down.. it's canceling out the effect of those weight releasers..

;)

Yeah the bands do look like they're too strong in the video cause it looks like he's pulling the thing down with him, but if he had 110% of his max on the bar or something then he could have had the weight releasers to cancel out the effect of the bands on the way down and on the way up the band would help him lift it back up. Down part=weight of bar+(weight releasers-bands=0) up part=weight of bar-bands?

ya basically..

up part = weight of bar - (length of band at position X) <-- lol

He'll prolly die this summer doing stuff like that  ???. I really like his basketball videos but hiring that "fitness expert"  :-\ to be his trainer, that's a no-no

you subbed to him? ya he's cool but here's his problem.. he tries to put out videos EVERY DAY, so i mean, you have to put out alot of "new shit", so that dumb trainer basically makes up new drills every day.. i guarantee you dreupt has not gained much in vert/speed or any of that.. he probably gained on conditioning, his "plyometric sessions" look like puke circuits.

live this summer or die this summer.

that actually looks like it might help in FB..just bare with me here...alot of times when your blocking, the guys is not just standing still, he is moving back and forth to get away from you...so maybe this will help with stability and get a better block

but idk...it doesn't seem that stupid

Its purpose is to increase stability of the shoulder joint.  Most people have terrible shoulder stability when performing pressing exercises and this exercise trains the lifter to stay extremely tight and stable through the shoulder joint and upper back while pressing.
Relax.
