I purchased 2 packs of these from Amazon for mobility and banded lifting and they seemed to be the best deal I could find for a 5 pack of bands with varying resistances. They were just delivered about 20 mins ago so I can give you a followup when I use them tonight.
I think they are called power resistance bands? Bands for rows, push ups, combining with weights. Mainly for accessory work.
Was thinking maybe something like this? loop band
I have 3 sets of odoland bands: https://www.amazon.com/Odoland-Resistance-Mobility-Powerlifting-Exercise/dp/B01LED8ZVC
I've only broken one small yellow one in 3 years time. They seem pretty damn good to me. The handles they sell with them suck though. Don't abuse then and they should work, make sure you're not wrapping them around sharp shit. For what it's worth, I never clean them or anything.
I’ve heard good things about these, and while they’re not the cheapest they’re also not the most expensive and come with a few attachments to be able to do different exercises.
You could also buy some separately and slowly build a collection of them! I’ve seen single ones for anywhere from $4-$17 depending on the amount of resistance.
I've recommended this Odoland set before.
5 bands and handles for around $35.
I've been using them daily for over a year and they're still going strong.
Even if you don't need or plan to use the handles, it's still one of the least expensive sets out there.
I bought these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LED8ZVC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 as a rubberbanditz dupe. I couldn't justify the price of 92+ dollars for bands, and for me these replicate the purpose of those. Additionally, it came with some extras in the package as well. I'm relatively hard on my gym equipment and these hold up extremely well and for only being a fraction of the price.
If you're just using them for pull aparts and warming up, these cheap ones will probably do you just fine.
two sets of these. doing X pulls, bilateral rows, extra resistance for DLs, all sorts of stuff
Edit: also, kettlebells from /u/kettlebellkings . I have three sets from them and I love every one

If you want your feet to firmly touch the ground, bench height will matter. Many adjustable benches are taller than standard. 17" to top of pad seems to be the standard, so look for something that height or lower. This one is recommended a lot and is 17.5" but out of stock:
I have these bands in my Amazon cart for when I decide if I want bands. This is based on seeing them recommended several times:
I bought dumbbells and while I sit here I work out, as I progress my set has grown. I also have bought a set of resistance bands I use all the time.

60cm sounds like mini bands. https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=mini+resistance+bands

Yes. Resistance training of some kind is important for retaining muscle.
This is the set I bought. https://smile.amazon.com/Odoland-Resistance-Mobility-Powerlifting-Exercise/dp/B01LED8ZVC/r
I just ordered these on Amazon. Haven’t received them yet but they have good reviews.

Also ordered this bar to go with the bands for deadlifts. It takes a capacity of 800lbs of resistance.

Here's an example poster. Most sets of bands come with handles and a door anchor. I bought this set for less than $40 recently.

$40 and you get 5 bands of various resistance along with handles and a door anchor (if you'd ever need them).
