Would this or a similar tool work for a vertical press?

I’m just seeing this and I just ordered it

No one would ever say using chains is cheating.. the sling shot is conceptually the same thing only using aid at the bottom instead of adding weight at the top... plus a sling shot is WAY easier to setup than chains and encourages proper form. It's a tool to supplement raw bench.

I'm not a powerlifter. I'm a 62 year old just trying to stay fit. I ordered the slingshot because my left shoulder is messed up. I am hoping it can get me benching with less pain. I ordered the blue one.

Face pulls are dynamite with these

You look awesome Mark.

Hey Mark you look great buddy . I'm 57 years old and I been in shit loads of bench competitions in my 20s and up to early 40s , I had a 525 bench press with pause for my best and never used nothing the only thing that was out that I knew about was a bench shirt but didn't use one when I benched 525 with pause at 214 pounds. Just recieved my original slingshot because I have major shoulder pain from arthritis and all the heavy lifting through my years even with seated shoulder presses behind my neck 315 for 8 reps and actually did 405 for a single behind the neck press with just a lift off and nobody touching the bar even the slightest because just a finger on the bar helps and people don't realize that but your slingshot definately works as you say and my shoulder isn't bothering me as much at all with your slingshot so thank you very much and I will be buying more of your merchandise very soon buddy.

Thanks!

So then why not just use less weight, if your elbows and shoulders hurt use less weight more reps..... I'm sorry I don't see a benefit , if you have that many injuries you can't lift 300 lb don't lift 300 lb Lift 200 without the band.... why push yourself to unrealistic expectations this is a gimmick the only benefit is his pocketbook... yeah you can walk around and say oh boy the first time I ever benched 315 no you didn't bench 315 you benched 250 with a cheat... that's the honest fact

Does it matter where we place the slingshot. I always put it on my biceps above the elbows but i sometimes see people with it at the center of the elbows. 50% above elbow and 50% of the slingshot below the elbow. Which is best.

I got my slingshot today. I think it's a Little small on me nothing like the video.

Wondering if this can help increase one’s bench

Holy crap you need to do radio man. Your voice is really pleasant to hear.

Thank god i never used this 😅 im a beast im heading to the gym to bench 385 raw at the gym today

This was absolutely helpful!!

That third technique blew my mind. So simple yet effective.

Any issues using these on incline bench presses?

I have used my slingshot as knee wraps also.

Poor video

Can you use it for shoulder press?

love my slingshot, mad dog 🫡

i love my maddog slingshot

Anyone recommend going up to the full boar after breaking into 315+ on bench? Ive got the original and love it, I'm tempted to get the full boar to hit in the higher 300's

I love the slingshot. It's like having a real life cheat code. I went from benching 250lbs to a new PR of 370lbs. It's a big help with tricep dips.

Out of all of the accessories I've purchased this is by far the best at improving overall strength for me.

I don't know how to write to NOT sounds like an attacking moron but... The only thing I hear when you explain everything about it just pure cheating to help you lift bigger then you can't do normally? Am I totally wrong? Helps in the bottom vere it's the heaviest and force triceps to help out mor? Am I totally wrong? 😅 Explain to me because I am genuine interested. Maby I don't get because that's the only thing I hear 😅 English ain't my country's main language so maby thats it. The only thing with what I understand that's good is that you get a little more secure if you benching without anyone standing behind ready to help if you if something happen? Thanks man. Awesome videos 💪🏻 *Edit: many ut helps power lifters / explosive sports alot but not bodybuilders?

I ordered this due to training Smolov Jr on bench. Wanted to see if it’ll help with the heavier sessions that I miss reps on.

Wtf I got tiny ass calves, skinny legs, but my medium size sleeves can’t get past my calves even with this method 😂

Thank you!!!

Bought the cinnamon roll flavored a week or two ago & I love it! Taste great

Thank you brother 🙏🏻 great video!

I love mine. I'm a paraplegic, and it honestly helps me balance when I go heavy on bench. Once I feel and move a certain weight with the Slingshot, my CNS is used to it and it definitely helps when I hit the same weight (or close) raw.

Doesn’t the size of your quads matter too?

My calves are too damn big for the 2xl sleeves

I can barely get it past my forearm. I guys said measure flexed biceps but didn’t take in account some people have thick forearms .

can a person use the sling shot for dumbell presses?

Are there sling shots with larger openings for your arms? I just got the red original and can not get it up on my biceps without it hurting and pulling my skin.

Thanxz man

Thanks for the explanation, Mark. I'm 51 years old and stuck at a 195lbs bench press. I'm hoping the red slingshot will help me overcome that plateau.

I just got the mad dog… can’t wait to use it. I’ll come back with my review.

Thanks dude.I was useingbit with my elbow in middle 😂😂😂😂. Thanks needed this video

Would it help me workout with my very bad shoulders?

I’m weak as fuck but with this I’m actually “ Strong”. This thing rules. I may technically not be able to lift those weights but I don’t give a shit. It’s awesome lifting more.

Should I cover the whole bicep?

Nice and simple. Thanks!

I just purchased size 3xl thank god for the video 👍🏿

Mine won’t screw in

Mike mentzer said dips are the best upper body exercise.u didn’t mention that

Mine did not come with instructions. Thank you. 😂
