It looks promising as a bench training tool. I like the possibility of saving the shoulders some wear and tear.
I just ordered one. We'll see how it goes...

We have a Ram. Training partner loves it. He had some major shoulder issues, but he can wear it and have no problems when benching.

I'm pretty strong off the chest. It's the mid-bench that is hardest for me.

Steve, I'd love to hear how it works out for you. I'm tempted to drive down to House of Pain and buy one...

Every review I've read has been good. Can't wait.

I've got both a slingshot and a Titan RAM. Both give you some support at the bottom and keep you in a good groove to prevent injury. BUT, the RAM is much better made, made in U.S.A. and will last much longer. Slingshot is made in Asia. I'll be at USPF Nat'ls next weekend at the O'hare Crown Plaza hotel in Chicago with some RAMs for sale. I'm working a booth for Ken Anderson Powerlifting. If you want to try one out, come out and see me.

There's going to be a Slingshot-sponsored benching event in my home town on the 7th. Several of the guys from Strongman WA will be there for a laugh - I will try it out and report back.
Not that I know squat about shirted benching. I just want to see how much it bumps my bench numbers up. |
