Playfit Black 50 lb Pull-Up Assist Band — Heavy Loop Resistance for Pull-Ups & Deadlifts
$17.99
Pull-up assistance, deadlifts, heavy rows.
The Black 50 lb is the pull-up band. Loop it over the bar, stick your foot in, and chase your first rep. 7/8-inch natural latex, 41-inch loop, the most-used band on @myplayfit for nine years and counting.
Doubles as deadlift band-tension and a serious row anchor. 50 lb is the sweet spot — heavy enough to mean something, light enough that you'll actually use it. Powerlifters use it for accommodating resistance on speed work; calisthenics athletes use it for unassisted-pull-up progression.
If you're chasing your first pull-up, start here. When 50 lb stops kicking your ass, graduate to the Purple 70 lb.
