Hey, Mike! Great review! I got the blue Slingshot about 5 years ago because of a shoulder injury (due to a fall on ice). It taught me to keep my elbows in tight, and improved my benching form significantly. It also protected me from further injury. I really love the device!
I always feel my joints when I place the bar back on the stands. You could say to set the stands lower, but that will create a new issue with picking the weight up. This product might be helpful for my problem. Thanks!
I would probably buy the slingshot & use it on my total gym laying on my back using the upside down dip bars for bench press using the weight bar with cable running underneath the dip bars method. I tend to have joint issues in my elbows with a certain amount of weight. Wondering if the slingshot would feel better doing that exercise. Glad you made that dip bar video, it is my fave TG bench press method, i use level 3 and add weight plates to create a more realistic bench press feel.
Hey Mark, my reactive s/s is super tight on my biceps, I’m 6’4” 255 and got the 2XL. It’s super tight to slide on & off. It’s not supposed to be that tight right?
I hate ordering things online. The recommended sizing is always off. I'm 265 and 2XL is too tight on the arms. Now the mission of having to send back for a bigger size
I never did believe in products like that, always thot...if it hurts, dont do it...if u need support...lower the weight and get stronger....but, that's just me...as always, I appreciate your work and effort on fitness related topics!👍
Thank you. Here's a link to the shirt amzn.to/3z8yEQy I was actually debating about putting it in the description. But I'm going to add that now. They are good shirts. Got 2 of them.

That's great to hear that real world benefit from someone like you who's had a shoulder injury. Thanks for sharing that.

Happy it was helpful. Thanks again for watching.
Cool video good to see you cover so many different gear👍
No problem, let me know if there's stuff you want to see.
@@hybridresistance I saw this MaxPro fitness thing check it out and let me know I wouldn’t buy it 😎
I bought an off brand one but thing is amazing increased my bench from 305 to 330 can do 315 for 3 with it great product an i bought an off brand one
I love using this with dumbbells, I prefer using the blue one as it has a lot more flexibility than the red for me.
Sizing ?

That's great that the dip bar press exercise is working out for you. I didn't think of trying that one out in this video. Thanks for adding that.
I bought an off brand one kcross brand was only 18 bucks works great
And the sling shot also works for dips too

Good review and may invest , have you ever tried the Angles90 Grips they may be a welcome addition to your Home Gym . XLS Owner Love it !
I have seen those, but honestly forgot about them. Thanks for pointing that out. Definitely could be great on a Total Gym.

Those total gym workouts are lame. Stick to the weights. More bang for your buck. Just saying
But Chuck Norris 😳
