Great for warming up prior to squats, will activate your glutes as well
I’m a physical therapist, avid weight lifter and have watched 1 too many Mark Bell youtube videos which resulted in me buying the sling shot. Sizing: I’m 5’8 and 170 lbs- I bought the large and I am pleased with my sizing decision. Several of my clients have used this including my wife who is 130 lbs. Durability: I’m writing this review after using this product for two years. I’ve used it heavily and have had no issues. The band is still like new and has not lost any resistance. I use it prior to squatting as a warm up. My wife uses it for the same purpose. I’ll put it around my thighs and do monster walks (forwards and backwards) and side to sides. Exercise: I like that this band does not slip off and it offers a good bit of resistance. Is it my go to for glute exercise, no, but it’s great for glute activation prior to doing squats, hip thrusts or three weigh hips with weights. Compared to bands: I would say they serve two different purposes. I mostly like the sling shot for warm up and a few exercises. With bands you can do a lot more (three way hip, shoulder work, rows, back exercises etc). The sling shot is best for warming up your lower body. Overall: Great product, held up well, good to use before a squat warm up.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic hip external rotator (and knee stabilizer) aid!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2015
    Size: LargeColor: BlueVerified Purchase
    I have been lifting for many years, and as hip muscle function, in particular the external rotators of the hip, is commonly found to be deficient in athletes, leading to less control of the knee, and increased rates of knee pain and risk of knee injury. Despite this awareness, and occasionally using bands personally and to coach clients, I found the SlingShot hip circle to be absolutely fantastic as an aid to squatting. My first try with this led me to comfortably do multiple sets of Goblet squats (a form of front squat) at varying foot placement widths, along with a strong feeling of lateral gluteal activation unlike any I've felt before. I am 6'0", 220lbs, and the 15" was good for me. However, for a greater challenge, I immediately ordered the 13" band for me, and one for my wife as well. I am very enthusiastic about including the band in my leg workouts from now on, and I can see where this will be an invaluable aid to squatters everywhere.

    Addendum of 21 Jan 16: the hip band is also effective for three additional things, one obvious and two not-so-obvious.

    1) Obvious-to work the hip/pelvic muscles involved with sacral stabilization, apply the band just above or below the knees, lie on your back, with your legs bent and feetc flat on ground (situp style), and open and close your knees. Alternatively, keep one knee vertical and externally rotate the other knee. Then switch. This helps with isometric/eccentric training, a critical function of lateral rotators.

    2) Not obvious-for chest wall splinting, e.g. sore ribs, this works as a nice wrap. I'm 6'0", 230, 40+" chest, and the 15" red band fit perfectly snugly.

    3) Breathing-an aid to practice diaphragmatic breathing, use the wrap around the chest to restrict its motion and allow lateral "belly breathing".

    5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for strength and mobility training alike.

    First, I'm not being paid or given any discounts or free product. Nor do I often go into this much detail about the quality of a product. That said, if there was 1 product I had to choose when warming up in the gym, this would be it!

    It works quick and allows you to target areas you can't otherwise, even with expensive equipment. Furthermore, it helps to condition proper form and technique for squatting, lunging, and deadlifts. If you're someone that recognizes the importance of those lifts and positions, you should own this product. Yes it's more than a rubber loop, but it's a far better product and puts money in the hands of Mark Bell a professional that works hard to help others. If you're not familiar with him, get on YouTube & Google and check him out. Whether you're a power lifter, an athlete, trying to rehab your hip, or gain mobility & strength like myself, this is essential.
