    I bought a pair of the Mad Spotters and they are FANTASTIC. I decided to give up barbell bench press due to aging shoulders and these holders allow me to keep doing fairly heavy dumbbell bench press. Worth every penny I spent.

    The thing I like to use the slingshot for is overcoming the mental hurdle of pressing a new weight. It lets you feel how it will be when you unrack and part of the way down. So it’s like dipping your toes in.

      He didn’t show the intended way to use it. It has 2 connector straps so that you can load both cable stacks on a functional trainer. It can also load trap bars, straight bars, resistance bands, and more. When using it correctly, it feels a lot more natural than using a belt squat and has a similar safety profile despite the fact that the whole body is loaded

    i got my mad spotters on sale for $40 and ended up hurting myself with it after missing a heavy rerack. I've also tried dropping the dumbells with it and it just felt awkward. The long metal rods just hits the floor at an angle first before letting go of the weight. It's like having Wolverine do a dumbbell press with his claws out and then his claws scratching the floor when dropping the weights. Mad Spotters are a quality product but I ended up getting a power rack with their own dumbbell stand attachment

    Mad Spotters were the game changer for me. I have shoulder pain when doing the regular barbell press. I can press the same amount of weight of dumbbell as of barbell due to the shoulder discomfort. But without the Mad Spotters, I felt like I always waste more energy on loading the dumbbells into position than actually pressing them, and sometime failed to get up after the last rep.

    The mad spotters are pricey for what they are but they are awesome. Took the plunge on them and wish I had done it sooner. I’ve increased my press to 120 Db’s now because of them. Couldn’t recommend them enough. And I’ve dropped them with the 120’s multiple times with no issues. Still works great.

    Eventually youll get strong out of the bottom position, on dumbbell bench. I do remember when i was less experienced i would have trouble with the first rep on heavy db bench, but not anymore

      Even the super strong people use spotters for extra heavy dumbbells, and lift them into place. Sooner or later, with heavy dumbbells, you’ll strain your rotator cuffs getting them into position, especially on incline.

    I have been using an earlier version of mad spotter for about six years on my smith machine bar since I work out alone. I've liked these things from day one. Nothing out there is perfect, and you'll always have the whiners crying about anything. After adapting to these I never lift alone without them!
