Probably not a bad idea for getting a bit more tricep work in without over stressing shoulder joints.


How much was shipping?

It's $59.99, including international shipping.

I note it's recommended that you replace it every six months though!

FTS.

It looks very similar to a set of knee wraps sown together from the video - could you make your own out of an old pair of knee wraps? (for a light lifter benching relatively small weights)

This is basically a tarted up version of a band looped in an X shape through your arms, the only thing which i can think is better about it is the fact that it covers the elbows.

Yeah it works out at £40. It arrived within a week too.

I doubt you could make your own - I certainly wouldn't want to run the risk.A pec tear is alot more hassle than paying forty quid lol

My triple ply prototype is now up and running!

Want all the benefits of a bench shirt?
DON'T want all the embarrassing glances from other gym users?

I really think this is the solution.
Send me 2 sets of old knee wraps and $100 and I'll make one of these badboys for you!

Used the same one as seen on the video on sunday, found it rather helpfull, doesnt give you much weight increase at all but keeps you nice and tight n makes the feeling of it seem lighter than it is! well worth trying!

I'll do you one better Bryn! For a friend, you can pay in FOUR easy installments of $35.99 each, and I will even return the left over knee wrap for the price of postage only!
