Is a regression for this exercise to use a heavier resistance band so that it becomes easier to rise up?

Hi George,
Unless you using a very light band, increasing the resistance to force yourself into a greater arch will make the intensity of the stretch too high and compromise your form. Instead, simply don't arch as high for now. Focus on keeping your shoulders fully open and doing your best to lift if the correct order (chin, upper ribs, then lower ribs, one by one).
Submitting a form check of your current form will be helpful as well.
Hi,
Apologies if I'm asking the same question as George - I'm not 100% sure if my question is different so I'll ask my question anyway.
I feel like I need a stronger band on the Prone Thoracic Band Pull compared the Supine but I noticed in the video that they use the same band strength.
Is it recommend to use the same band strength on both the prone and supine and just keep practicing?
Use the same band.
Thanks!
