I like you, man. Great energy, speaking from experience, sharing your wisdom. You're a quality human being. Plus you look like what I want to look like. All the best to you, sir.
Thank you Dave I am a 63-year-old woman who was told I need to start building better muscle tone and exercise due to a heart syndrome called HFpEF. I have the bands but did not really know where to start... And here you are!! I am going to start watching your videos on the proper way to excersise using bands. This video was very informative thank you so much! (Us older folks need this too!)
As an old fart, coming back from suspected thiamine defficiency, chronic fatigue, bad gut etc etc, I needed basic and fun exercises, with core detail, that can build my muscles back. A calisthenics type approach seems to be the one. I follow another you tuber called Jeremy Ethiar, and now you Discipline Dave. I just got the coloured band set, and you tubed band workout, and big D pops up. 😊 Thanks man.
It's about damn time! I've been searching for reliable and credible information, instruction, and technique for a long time. Thank you so much for this channel.
Very helpful content. I was very skeptical about using bands to gain muscle mass but decided to give it a try. I actually enjoy using them. Just subscribed to your channel.
Thank you sir. I’m coming out of a 7 month mental health crisis and agoraphobia, and was rotting on the couch for months. Gained so much weight and lost a lot of mobility so starting over. Lost my job. So can’t afford new bands, so I’ll start with my old ones for now. I appreciate your advice, expertise, and guidance. 🖤
Yes technique is everything. I learned that back in the '80s when I used to do bodybuilding. Nowadays people think they don't need a trainer but you really do have to learn how to work out not just go through the motions.
You must be a personal trainer. Your channel seems to be just what I was looking for. I'm 49 and very out of shape and I wanna do my workouts correctly. Thanks for the tips.

Just found your channel. Have bands from physical therapy & chiropractor, yet barely use them……Thanks for telling me about better bands. I’m feeling a little more encouraged to do what I love which is to exercise……it’s just that now, different parts of my body are talking back to me because I’ve not been exercising. Wish I had a motivator partner to exercise with (or to motivate me to exercise) ,,,,,,,,,,, also would love a dance partner to practice dance steps with. Bless You for being so very CLEAR & THOROUGH 🫶🏿🙇🏾♀️🙏🏾🙏👼🏽💜
Yeah this is good advice to know this because I had a habit of paying attention to the sets and reps, now I have better results by just exhausting the muscle. 👍🏾 good video
I agree that having different band types is useful. I only have loop bands at the moment and I find they don't work well for some exercises. I got a bar and handle attachments, which I found opened up a few additional exercises or at least made some existing ones either more effective or allows a different part of a muscle group to be targeted, but eventually I plan to add tube bands because I think the exercises I find most difficult with the loop bands will be easier with them.
Mrs. Discipline was talking about Therabands. I use them traveling, very compact and there are some exercises that I prefer on Therabands over my Bodylastics bands.
I live in Northern rural Thailand, I can only get cheap resistance bands. I only use the loop bands, but with climber clips? (don't know a better name) self made handles and a tree that if drilled this looped ended metal screws in at multiple levels. And I suddenly have a damn lot of options. 4:51 this!!! Had given me new idea due handles. Never thought of doing a "proper" bar excersizes! 😅 (this seriously excites me) Gives me so many idea's for other types of handles as well. I feel quite dumb I never thought of it before 😂😂 So just for that, Thank you very much ( I make the handles out of metal tubing and leather straps run through it, with one or more of those climber clips attached) Tbh, I'm quite proud of my cheap outside home gym 😂
Great videos on resistance bands 💪 I use a lot resistance bands for arm wrestling training, they definitely build muscle and increase strength. Keep up the good work, all the best 💪
@@DisciplineDave your videos are great, I only came across your channel today 💪 yeah resistance bands are great for arm wrestling training, I sometimes put fat gripz over the loop bands or on the handles if they fit haha.
I started with resistance bands cause, I'll be honest, they were the easiest to steal from Walmart. Though I'm reaching a point where I'll have to actually buy a good set or two from Amazon. I'll probably donate the ones I don't use when I get the ones from Amazon.
And in saying that, you've gained a sub, my ultimate struggle was not undertstanding band tension, i can't go from one band to the next heavier band as the jump is too much, I start adding smaller 5lb bands for example and then continuing like that.
Omg that shot of you getting hit in the back had me 😅 looks so painful though! I am new to resistance bands AND weight training but am waiting for hip surgery and juat had to fond something i could do with my body that wouldnt aggravate that injury. Im hooked!! But also clueless... so thank you for your videos!
I bought TorroBands after watching this video about a year or so ago and they're still going strong...but the door stopper that came with them is very flimsy and comes aloose, so I'm looking for an alternative....thank you!
Hi, Im now to this. Im 62 and would love to begin to use bands. Your videos are amazing!! Please let me know when you have any deals on bands or free ones. Thank you!!
Used to be a competitive bodybuilder when I was I'm high school. I always get back to the gym for awhile but don't really get the same results anymore. I've been thinking about trying bands at home till summer just to see the results. I think it is a completely different thing that my muscles haven't tried before.
I believe that the rep/set range is now not a good a guide as time under tension? I use circuits with bands and I aim for say 40 secs on 20 off I always feel tired towards the end. Great video and I'll subscribe. Much ❤️ and respect from the UK
I just got ptp set of bands they feel good but dont explain how to use them .yes you get a book but a video would be better thanks for good advice i will check your other videos ..i started with pysio bands because of injury thats why i got a set of tubes

Just today i got my loop bands from undersun, very helpful your content, have a question, can i do the same workout that you use in the tube bands on my loop bands ?
Iv bought arena strength bands im on week 3 i tried dumbells but i ha e a bad back and shojlder and my lower back killed me with bands it doesnt bother my back i can recover better . But heard they dont get results as fast as dumbells for weightloss /fat loss . Are these goo bands or should i have handle kind and these there a loop but fabric no rubber or plastic .
Im triybg to loose 50 pounds and tighten and tone up the flabby parts of me..but im not looking to build bigger muscles just keep and build toned ones and strength not bigger popping ones lol
Is it possible to bulk with resistance bands just like you would with weights. My bands go up to 50 lbs, and I really want a Mike Tyson type physique, how can I bulk when I would have to go over 10 reps?
Yes but you do need to build up to more resistance. I recommend these bands in the link. They have up to 350lbs of resistance sale.torroband.com/?affId=22E20181
@@DisciplineDave thanks I’ll check them out, but I got multiple bands and if I combine all of them together I get 140 lbs, for now I’ll stick with them since I’m just starting out
hey! i used to lift in the gym for about a year and a half everyday 5x a week; then life happened and i gained some. would i be losing weight using resistance bands 3/4x a week + intense skipping everyday for about 20-35 minutes?
What's funny about the band that snapped on your back is the fact that you got it on video. It's not funny, but I can't help but laugh when I see it, lol.
