I'm not a fan of them. You'll get more carryover to the lockout from regular banded deadlifts than reverse band. Like you said, it's more of an ego booster than anything.

I'll throw them in for a bit. My off the floor pull is incredible, but I get a stalling point at lockout.
Here's an example of what I'm planning on doing. Always heavy for low reps.
1. Tuesday-Regular Deadlifts
1.. Friday- Rack pulls
2. Tuesday- Reverse band deadlifts
2. Friday- Reeves deadlifts
Repeat week 1, etc.
I'm hoping that with this, I can boost my deadlift up a bit by training the movement in a slightly different way, while still focusing on the actual lift itself every other week.
