I use them in particular to add resistance (when I've exceeded what the stacks + plates will allow), to alter the resistance curve of exercises (and create a "new" exercise), simply smooth out the resistance provided by a machine in general (this is noticeable on some old / poorly maintained machines), create new exercises where the band is an essential component (e..g, banded HS machines even if I've not exceeded the max weight that fits on the weight post, or banded rack deads).

Thank you for the reply. I've loved incorporating them into my training. I will be careful in adding them to quickly though.
