The original is great but the VICE IS WAY BETTER! Doing back and shoulder work sometimes could be a pain with the Bowtie riding up your back. If you train with a crew it’s not so bad because you can get one of training partners to pull it back down for you. What if you train alone tho? Now you have to go ask that person at the gym that you wave to but don’t remember their name even tho they know yours. Avoid this by getting a Bowtie Vice! With the straps sewn on you can easily set it correctly before EVERY SET! You’re welcome 😉😂

It’s Compression Bo! If it helps your knees, hips, and elbows then it will help for your shoulders as well

We got something NEW coming you’re gonna like 😈

Metal pins create a hard, jarring stop when the bar drops onto them. This can damage the bar’s knurling or coating, wear out the pins/rack over time, and feel punishing on your body/joints if you fail a rep. Nylon safety straps (or chain-suspended setups) absorb and spread the impact, providing a more forgiving “cradle” that reduces noise, bounce, and wear.

Your body will thank you!

Suspension Straps and Safety Rack Straps FTW 🫡💪

🫡🔥💪 • I really love both of these. I use a dip belt around my neck. The physics behind it allow for a better and more direct load on the posterior chain.

The “captain morgan” sand bag lift is also very unique. It is a very strong stimulus on the core since it is so imbalanced. Also it creates a stretch that feels really good on the groin. I’m using an 18” box but you don’t have to go that high.

And of course always bags ☠️💪🏻☠️

Well, that escalated quickly 😂

This version has all the same softness and durability to handle any belt squat job you can throw at it. The material folds up and contours to any body type just like the regular Pillow belt squat belt only we added a slide buckle system taken from our regular adjustable belt squat belt. That version has been a staple around the world for over 20 years along with our regular belt squat belt.

🫡🤌 • SAVE THIS STRETCH 🔖 AND YOUR SHOULDERS!

This is a really productive shoulder stretch that is friendly for heavier folks and novice.

Simply get into some hanging ab straps and touch your hands behind you. Be sure you’re in a full hang (don’t hang the straps low! you don’t want to flex your hips). Let me know what you think!

I’m nominating this as the coolest shoulder stretch of 2026 😎
