How to perform it
Step-by-step instructions
- 01Put the Sling Shot on correctly above the elbows, lie on the bench with the eyes under the bar, and set the upper back and feet before you unrack.
- 02Take the bar out to locked elbows with the wrists stacked, shoulder blades pinned back, and full-body tension already in place.
- 03Lower the bar under control to the lower chest or upper sternum while the Sling Shot stretches and helps keep the elbows on a strong pressing path.
- 04Touch the chest softly and press back to lockout, letting the device assist mainly through the bottom range without relaxing your own bar control.
- 05Keep the bar path consistent, maintain your normal bench setup, and rack only after the bar is fully stabilized over the shoulders.
