Harambe System ReviewsSee store reviews

These bands are absolutely the best to use with the Harambe System. I’ve used so many different brands including the Serious Steel sold by Harambe. No other band comes close. These are obviously made for a band bar system. The 38” length is a perfect medium between the standard 41” and the shorter 32”. Some movements are just too close for 41 in my experience (like chest press) and some don’t feel quite right with 32 (like deadlift or OH press). The 38’s eliminate this problem and seem to be the...

Wow, these bands are a gamechanger. That word gets thrown around a lot but these bands really do change the experience of resistance band training. The two main reasons for this: 1) The slightly shorter length than the usual 41" bands mean greater tension at the beginning of the movement; I find this results in a more complete muscle fatigue and the ability to get there faster. 2) These bands have a much smoother stretch than the other brands of bands I have used. It's difficult to put the diffe...

I love this footplate. Originally I was hesitant to buy the product because it is expensive and I even looked around to see if I could find cheaper alternatives. In the end I bought the plate, and I am so glad that I did. When it first arrived I was surprised with how sturdy it was and it had a really good weight to it. This product is solid and I feel confident that I can use stronger bands without worrying that the plate will break. It feels great too and has great ergonomics. I still t...

Pieced together K bundle plus white ropes and spacers with refurbished/factory second plate. Received order very quickly over busy holiday period, very impressed with customer service. Quick background, I’ve Olympic lifted and power lifted for close to 20 years and got into resistance bands to complement free weight training a few years ago. Not to say I’m more qualified to review than others in community, just that I’m very used to and enjoy traditional barbell/dumbbell training and a variety o...

The smoothness is more and more apparent as you use it. Exercises that hurt more and are more difficult are now easier to rep out once you get used to the increased weight of the bar compared to leading products on the market. Rows and calf raises are game changers now. More stabilizers are engaged, you can tell by the wobble of the demonstrator in the demo videos. The only drawback if I am grasping for straws is the ability to throw it in the hook and go, but if you get a real good price on one...

This bar is a nice addition to Harambe System’s offerings. I have the K bar and the T bar V1 in addition to the T bar V2. I like that this T bar is slightly thicker and heavier than the V1 for some at home exercises. I find forearm and bicep engagement is increased in exercises like curls and rows. If someone is on the fence between V1 and V2 of the T bar I would say go with the V1 if it’s going to be mainly used for travel (it’s almost 2 lbs lighter). Go with V2 if it will be an even mix of ...

There was much marketing hype about this plate before it came out and now I know why. This takes 'band-bar-board' training to a whole new level. It's meticulously crafted and extremely sturdy. The lifts feel like a cable machine - ultra smooth throughout the entire range of motion without a trace of friction anywhere during the lift. Works really well for explosive movements because the band never jerks backward as it increases tension against the plate. The vertical rollers on the underside mak...

BUY IT NOW! WORTH EVERY PENNY! Literally the best band system out there. If you're like me and come from a heavy weightlifting background, and may have some injuries, or just want to try something different, this is what you're looking for! I tried the X3 system which was my 1st foray into using bands for actual weight training, and it wasn't bad, but this is WAY better! I can do more bodybuilding type movements with this system and the bar is bigger! I used the X3 system for two weeks then retu...
