Solid Steel Core with a Full Vinyl-Dipped Body
Solid Steel Core with a Full Vinyl-Dipped Body
Resistance bands provide variable tension that increases through the movement. The further the band is stretched the more difficult it becomes therefore the end of the movement is most challenging.
Free weights provide constant resistance yet tend to be harder in the initial movement of a rep. Once you get the weight past a certain point, your mechanical advantage kicks in and the weight feels lighter.
Combining the static/constant resistance from free weights and the variable resistance from bands at the same time forces your muscles to work harder, leading to improved muscle activation and a more intense workout.
The greater the muscle recruitment and the longer time under tension (TUT), the more oxygen, water and blood are pumped into to the muscle which leads to a greater lactic-acid build up and to a fuller muscle pump.

FAQ
Will Pump Hooks work with my adjustable dumbbells?
Pump Hooks XL are designed specifically for Powerblock (except Elite USA and EXP models) and Bowflex dumbbells.
Pump Hooks XL work on the majority of adjustable dumbbells on the market with a dumbbell length longer than 4.8".
Pump Hooks 2.0 are designed for any dumbbell with a handle length longer than 4.9" which are most fixed dumbbells.
The 2.0 and XL models do not fit Nuobells. Interested in Pump Hooks for Nuobells? Let us know at info@pumpstrength.com
Do I have to use the Pump Hooks with the Pump Pads?
No! Pump Hooks can be used without the Pump Pads and can be used with any resistance bands on the market!
The Pump Pad's are great for using with any bench exercises or if you want to avoid the tedious process of stepping in and out of bands with each and every set.
What are the Pump Pads and Pump Hooks made of?
Pump Pads are made of solid stainless steel.
Pump Hooks are made of solid steel core with a full vinyl-dipped layer to protect your dumbbells, barbells, and kettlebells.
How long are the Pump Bands and can they be shortened or lengthened?
The Pump Bands are 18" long from end to end. We did a lot of testing to determine which length would work for the maximum amount of exercises as well as testing different user heights.
If for any reason you need to lengthen the bands, our Pump Bands Set comes with Band Extenders that connect to the ends of the bands.
You can shorten the bands using Pump Hooks by wrapping/weaving the bands through the two smaller hooks until you have reached the appropriate length. It's easy and awesome!
Will any resistance bands work with the Pump Pad?
Yes! Pump Pad is universally designed to work with nearly all styles (looped, carabiner, braided, etc.) of resistance bands.
Do I need two Pump Pads?
One Pump Pad is great for single limb exercises, such as a stationary lunge or one arm row.
To take the most advantage of our products, we recommend two Pump Pads for anyone wanting to use them with bench exercises or exercise both sides of the body at the same time (bilateral) such as bench press, shoulder press, squats, etc.
