  • Free 12-week workout program with high-quality workout and nutrition advice
  • Bar has great knurling
  • No assembly necessary
  • Bands are dipped in layered latex, making them thick and durable
Cons
  • Platform’s embedded rollers don’t allow bands to roll during lift, but that's nitpicky

  • Only 1-year warranty for the bands
  • Some complaints of the bands wearing down after only a few weeks
