R7 Band Pegs

High Functionality with Virtually No Space Requirement

• Our Band Pegs have a diameter of 20 mm and are therefore compatible with all R7 Power and Squat Racks
• They're made of solid steel and simply slide into the upper or lower crossbars
• resistance bands are then attached to them, increasing your training load in a way that can't be achieved with weight plates
• If, for example, you hook the bands onto the Band Pegs at the bottom and around the barbell, they are stretched to the maximum during the bench press at the highest point, that is, where you can generate the most force
• This way, you can make the load on the target muscle more consistent, since without resistance bands the muscle, once it reaches full contraction, has to do less work than at the sticking point
• Conversely, you can also fix the bands at the top of the rack using the Band Pegs
• When doing squats, this can make sense for the following reason: in the deepest squat position, the resistance bands are under maximum tension
• They help you come out of the lowest position and lose more and more tension the higher you rise
• Just before full leg and hip extension, they no longer have any influence on the weight, so that in the phase where you can anatomically generate the most force, the full weight rests entirely on you
• Used correctly, resistance bands contribute to a more even load and prevent you from being intermittently over- or under-challenged during an exercise
