Banded Bbell exercises -- how to record?

[Fepriest]

Heya,

I tried to post this yesterday but it came through as unapproved, here's hoping it works today!

I suspect I'm overthinking this, but:

Doing Strength 1, bought two 60 lbs resistance bands to do the Overload exercises. Initially, I figured I would lump the total band resistance in with the total weight and record that as my set, but it seemed like a huge overstatement to say I was benching 300+ lbs as an overload.

At the same time, the bands are advertised as having 60 lbs of resistance, and I'm using two of them, so why wouldn't I count it as an additional 120 lbs resistance?

I keep moving between incredulity and then skepticism of that incredulity. How do the docs/someone else record their band work?

Thank you!

I just record the bar weight. Resistance bands' load changes based on how far it's stretched so I don't even bother thinking about the absolute load. I just record the bar weight.
