Have some sort of deterioration/impingement in right shoulder. I could not not bench over 135 pounds without pain. Got to 310 pounds with this device. As advertised. Great product. Great quality. Game changer for someone with shoulder challenges...now if they only made something for elbows...

Great product. I’ve been stuck at a 300 pound max bench for about 4 months. Hit 315 for two easy reps first try to the slingshot. It helps with form and getting over a plateau. Few more weeks and I’ll try 315 with no slingshot now!

I definitely was skeptical before purchasing. I’ve always had a shoulder impingement, which made bench pressing and dips a huge issue for me. So I figured if it doesn’t work for me, I’ll just send it back. Let me tell you that I have never been more impressed with a piece of workout equipment than I am with this product!!. I did not feel any pain whatsoever in my shoulder!! Actually, it really truly felt like I was cheating because the weight was literally going up so easy. I got it at 10 PM at night and I went downstairs. I had 185lbs on the bench. I didn’t do any warm-up or anything. And without any issue, I pumped out 15 reps and I could’ve kept going, it literally feels like you’re cheating when you’re using this product and I did not have an ounce of shoulder pain. I usually bench 250lbs but I haven’t been able to do it in a long time because of my shoulder. so I work out with 185 to 205 anywhere from 8 to 10 reps. But with this product it is an absolute game changer!!! I’m telling you if you’re skeptic just buy it and honestly if it doesn’t work out for you. Just send it back for a refund. But I am so impressed with this item. I’m excited about working out again.

某24時間ジムに入会してベンチプレスで60kgスタートから2カ月で80kgまで伸ばして停滞…(+_+)YOUTUBEでスリングショットを知って、速攻で購入しました!試したところ、80kg上がるか上がらないぐらいのレベルで90kgが余裕で挙上出来ました。腕立て伏せも限界数が30回から100回できるまでレベルアップさせてくれます(^^)/10%から15%挙上重量増加って記載していましたが、ほぼ当たってました。今後、神経系の強化して100kg越えを目指していきたいと思います。自分は体重61~65ぐらいの範囲ですが、Lサイズでちょうどよかったです。

I have had quite a few injuries in my life, so much that I haven’t been able to do pushups for about 6 years, and I wouldn’t even go near a bench. I still work out, but everything was modified to prevent injury. I put the slingshot on and instantly banged out 20 pushups. I used it at the gym and threw up 185lbs 20 times on bench. It is incredible, and I can’t thank the inventor and design team enough. It is a little hard for me to put on because of some past shoulder injury, but I think that it is supposed to be a tight fit around the arms. Well worth the cost!

Premetto che sono un istruttore di Powerlifting, anche se l'utilizzo della "fionda" non è contemplato nella programmazione atletica, la utilizzo per i carichi alti per migliorare il controllo dell'articolazione gleno-omerale. NON sostituisce una base tecnica e un buon set-up. Se non si sa fare un'alzata decente non c'è alcun vantaggio ad usarla (come tutte le cose) anzi si rischia di peggiorare la stabilità. La sconsiglio ai neofiti o per chi fa fitness, meglio imparare la tecnica e lavorare sul controllo motorio. Può essere interessante quando i carichi diventano alti per dare un primo feedback del peso ed un aiuto in uscita dal fermo.

No more shoulder pain while benching, dipping etc. For every chest exercise you can use the sling shot. You will be able to lift more with less injuries

So worth it. XL was the perfect size for me (6'1, 16" arms cold, 200lbs).Using this as my primary bench assistance has put almost 70lbs on my raw bench is 3 months. I am working towards 3 plates (raw) and I will be using the slingshot as my primary assistance for long to come. It has taught me how to properly engage my lats and make even better use of my triceps in the bench. Off the chest was my weakpoint before working with the slingshot, hence I thought I had a chest weakness, now after using the slingshot for 3 months my sticking point is at lockout and the slingshot will build that over time. My bench (with and without the slingshot) has never felt so good, my triceps have grown a lot since I started using it too. If you're a powerlifter (which you probably are if you're looking at this), I recommend using the slingshot right after your working bench sets, for example 5x4 working sets, then 3x5 slingshot right after using 10-12% more weight. You can also use this for weighted dips however I haven't used it much for that because I don't tend to train the weighted dip (at least at the moment).(PS. I wouldn't recommend going for 1RMs using the slingshot, you're just putting more weight on your wrists than they're used to, remember this is assistance, I wouldn't be doing singles doubles with this on)In conclusion, definitely a great product and will improve your bench vastly.Whether you're a powerlifter, strongman, or even a bodybuilder. This is a great product.

Awesome product! I was skeptical at first, but after hitting a plateau with my bench press, I was up for trying something new.A lot of people will say that a product like this is "cheating" but it's actually quite the opposite. During a normal bench press, your muscles are strongest when at the top of the lift, and weakest at the bottom of the lift when they are stretched out. So let's say you can bench 200 lbs x 5. At the top of your lift, you unrack the bar, and as the bar moves closer to your chest, you're feeling great. At the bottom of the lift, it starts to feel heavy, and you really have to push to get the bar back up. Halfway up, the weight seems much more manageable, and you finish out the rep easily. Pretty standard, right?But let's look at this process more closely. How much of your range of motion was actually spent under heavy tension? 30%? 40%? 50%? At the top of your lift (both at the beginning and end or the rep), you are essentially at minimal muscle tension. That 200 lbs is not putting much stress on you, in fact you could probably half rep quite a bit more weight. Not until you get to the lower muscle range of your rep does the tension build up enough to cause tissue damage, and consequently muscular hypertrophy. So a rough non-scientific estimate puts most of us at minimal tension for at least half of the range of motion. That means, that about 50% of reach individual rep, you're not really getting any benefit. Your muscles are not being challenged enough at the top of your range!So, we need to fix our approach. We need to add tension at the top of the rep (both at the beginning and end), while reducing tension at the bottom so we don't overload the bottom of the rep to the point of failure. That way, we can keep tension high enough throughout the range of motion that we are inducing muscular hypertrophy at or near 100% of the time (it's probably like 80-90%, but it's significantly better than 30-50%).Instead of benching 200 x 5, add 10-15% more weight, put the Slingshot on, and now at the top of your bench you are resisting 225 lbs, while at the bottom you are still under the same 200 lbs of tension you were when benching 200 x 5 without the Slingshot. In reality, with the Slingshot you are doing MORE work than you would be doing benching less weight without the Slingshot! More work, more tension, more muscular tissue damage = more gains over a shorter period of time.If you decide to buy this product, which I highly recommend (quality is top notch), and someone says "you're just cheating man", just keep in mind that some people are dumb as bricks, and there is nothing you or I or anyone can do about it.
