X3 Unleashed

X3U Ultimus Straps box squats for those with real mobility issue in their knees . That sometimes the problem is not the core strength over all but their knees and hips are so wasted they cannot really lower themselves deep enough even to do adequate split squats with the belt. Yes not everyone can use the belt because doing any lungs type movement is out of the question because they have such pain and instability in the knee in that position. They also cannot go too deep without pain in squat. So doing heavy squats is also hard because now loading the bar becomes really hard to do because one needs to be able to get down to load heavy bands. Well the straps plus box height adjustment means that you can set up your range and tension level workout hurting your lower back or knees.

X3U Showing the limiting factor in most single leg split squats and front squats if you want to go heavy. The main issue is load position. Once you are able to go heavy with your legs a lot of people run into the problem that they simply cannot load a heavy enough band and get into the position safely at the bottom without tweaking their lower back. As it requires a lot of mobility and flexibility to simply even get the bar into position. Most of the injuries or pain from front squats and single leg squats on your lower back happen even before the movement begins it happens in the loading of the move to even get started. This is simply a mechanical reality of loading heavy bands in the way we are doing them. Most people will lack the mobility and core flexibility and strength to even get to heavier bands. Now the squash belt obviously is the best choice as with that you eliminate this problem and just hit your legs but a lot of people also want to be able to do squats heavy with a bar on their shoulders. It does have benefits to overall strength. Well the Ultimus Straps allow for safely losing heavier tension as you can control where that tension starts at. Allowing one to use heavier tension without tweaking the lower back when trying to get into position.

X3U Again using slow cadence to really control stimulus. It’s easy to move fast even with heavy weight but to actually control full length deficit deadlift where the tension starts at your ankles while going all the way up and down slowly while following a cadence is extremely hard to do. As you really have to control your core and stay tight. Same for biceps.

X3U Using the Ultimus App to control my cadence I can adjust the speed of every move individually to better match that movement. The app will auto log my reps Total, Full, Half, and Partials. I can keep track of every single aspect of a workout from the size of the band to what type of footplate and bar. Whether I’m shortening or extending the bands and how many times. I’m I putting under the GHAccelarator or using straps. All of it can be tracked and will appear next time for you. You can load any previous workout to load its settings. Here I’m using the 2nd Gen Performance Band under the Accelarator using my Ultimus Plate for the band under the Accelarator and the Ultimus Mini Plate test plate on top. Then slowing the cadence to make sure I’m actually going all the way up and down with each rep. Just a quick video not the entire video.

X3U Ultimus Straps for Doubled Banded Bicep Curls which really hits you good. Plus remember you can then just keep shortening the strap as you progress which makes each band last a lot longer. Better micro increases to tension as you improve.

Also showing how they help those that have issues with calf raises not because their calves are weak but instead their lower backs have issues so when they try and pull a heavier band into position to do calf raises whether sitting or standing then they tweak their lower back. Well with the straps you can set that tension to start where you need it for the calves. So then you don’t have to worry about your lower back when using bigger bands to work the calves.
