*Pity, I concede defeat.

I did the DLs with the #4 band (resistance 50-120). I draped the band over the bar, then put my feet at either end of the loop and got everything lined up. It's safe as long as you do it right. Wow, this really, really, really helped my deadlift. It had to...I really found my groove and worked out a few creases in my form. It helped with my speed also.

Edit: Another thing that the bands helped/made me do right is to set the weights down correctly. I think that's a huge thing that is overlooked by most people that lift. It's one of the best/dumbest ways I can think of to get hurt.
