The new unlimited band shirts Kolb uses, by all accounts, have next to zero learning curve. They are not like traditional multiply, like a Super Phenom or Overkill. You can basically just use them, like a slingshot, and get under weights that can snap your wrists when you haven’t trained with a lot of overload. It sounds like you need less lats because the groove is much less important, and more triceps because they operate more like benching with a reverse band.
So if you really do want to get one, start doing lots of overload work prior, or get a looser traditional shirt first for a while.
The recent Table Talk with AJ Roberts he talks a good bit about how he’s way weaker now after a long layoff from competition, but already going for a lifetime PR because the band shirts are so wild.
