      Nice benefits for saving your teeth but there is SO MUCH more you get out of it.

      Cliff notes on the reading above...
      "mouth guard improves performance of upper-body loaded power exercises in both men and women and lower body power exercise in men without compromising performance on any other performance parameters."

        A lot of powerlifters myself included used them back in the 80s 90s

          If anyone is looking for good neoprene elbow sleeves I'd suggest wearing Rheband. They're a bit on the pricey side but they last forever. You can find them at Jackals Gym (online). If you want a single ply elbow or knee sleeve I suggest getting them from EliteFTS. They'll provide a bit more support than the neoprene but they won't warm up the area so you'll want to use a topical analgesic to help heat the area.

              Looks like you got everything covered. Which slingshot do you have and how do you like it?

                I've got the red one. I love using it for close grip heavy reps or just throw it on after my last raw top set for a few triples

                    Oly shoes are a must if you're a raw medium stance squatter. Everyone who fit that description should wear them.
