Good Article by Dave Tate about using Jump Stretch Bands
But not for squatting or benching or deadlift. For stretching/mobility. He calls it band traction.
Not the first time I have really seen it. I saw Mike Bolye do similiar things but he calls it "3D stretching" because you are moving the joint through many different positions. Idea being that the fascia of the muscle doesn't run just in a parallel line but when we do most static stretching, it is always the same way (ie the same plane of motion or the same general degree of ROM). So, this would take you out of that comfortable ROM that you always stretch in and allow you to increase your overal flexibility. He did it with the lats when I saw him do it.
Anyway, the reasoning here is a little different, but the idea is the same. Pretty good article with video(s)"

Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

Nice article. I was considering buying them until i saw the price for all 3. It's 30 bucks for a strong band and 18 bucks for a light band. There is one band at my gym but it's an average one. I'll see what i can do with it.

I actually tried some of that the other day using resistance tubes at the gym for my shoulders. I don't really know that it makes much of a difference, but if I do it regularly perhaps I will notice a difference.
The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
