Band Tension Level Progression
Band tension level progression steps light, medium, and heavy bands—or doubled loops—so home load increases predictably without guessing resistance.
Band tension level progression maps light, medium, and heavy bands—or doubled loops—to exercises so load climbs without guessing. Label bands by color or resistance rating, then advance when top reps feel clean for two sessions: add band thickness, shorten rest, or add a slow eccentric before buying dumbbells.
Deload by stepping down one band when elbows or hips flare. Log which band you used; memory lies after travel.
Common questions
-
How do you know when to move to a heavier band?
When prescribed reps feel smooth with good form for two consecutive sessions at RPE 7 or below, step up one band or add five slow seconds on the lowering phase before doubling loops.
