Tried those this morning, now our gym doesn't have rubber bands but we do have one that is made of the same material as the straps. Seemed to work fine.I did 2 sets and called it good enough, anymore and i would be in a world of hurt tomorrow.

If your interested in picking up some solid bands check this place out :

Also , I've seen guys use chains before .
Talo MY BACK HURTS! what do you recommend to strength my lower back? Good mornings or back extentions
Both will work great and so will deadlifts. But when you say HURTS do you mean weak or sore from a workout ? You should be spending time stretching and foam rolling .
IMO , if your doing Good Mornings then a good way to keep them focused on the lower back is to do them sittin down. I find that standing hits my glutes and hams more so than just my lower back. Back extensions is something that I tend to do with a 35 or 45lbs plate.
Also , I had a girl doing those Fallouts and she said that she felt it more in her lower back then in her stomach - This is a core exercise so whatever is weaker that is where you will feel it.
sweet thanks man its the dead that are killing me so im just trying to strengthen my lower back

morning weight = 233.8 lbs ( down 5lbs in 4 weeks . 10 lbs total in 6 weeks )
id love to be 233 i feel like a big fat fatty whats your goal weight
I will be competing at 220 , so if I can stay around 225-230 for training then I will be good.
My main thing now is just body recomp. Not too concerned with the scale. But it seems to be moving anyways :) prob sitting around 12-15% bf.
