band setup for bench

[jcp2]

What would you guys suggest for a flat bench workout with bands for a first time user, I am going to get my raw back to 400 first. Reps weight what band and rep scheme. Just curious.

THeir are a few ways to set them up, I can do that, i am more concerned about what weights i should be using, rep schemes etc. I honestly have no clue. I was looking more for a guideline on someone with a 400lb bench.

Just start simply by using a set of doubled mini's for your work sets. A doubled set of light (purples) gives approximately 220-260+ of tension at the top depending on arm length. That is a lot of tension bubba, and is HARD on the joints and should be done as a somtimes, and NEVER more than 3 week in a row thing. How do you normally train bench/chest/shoulders/tri's?
