band tension correlation to heigh

Each line represents the correlating band by the pair while squatting.

good stuff..need to take bar placement into consideration too
EFS used to have all the measurements done for each band and for a few different ways of mounting them..it used to be under the FAQ but since they retooled their web site they dropped it

actually that chart wont be accurate unless you know the slack measurements of the band...

I asked how they anchrored them. Bar placement is going to be at most a couple inches off, this is used as rough estimate, i don't care too much about band it doesn't really correlate too much imo anyway.

I dont either since i know the way i anchor them is done properly..
like you said it doesnt matter if its 100 or 120 on the bottom as long as you have tension on the bottom..ive seen some people mount them on the sides of a power rack and when they get in the hole there is zero tension on the band as it is completely slack-kinda pointless that way
