Product Summary
The Mark Bell Sling Shot Hip Circle is a versatile, 3-inch wide resistance band designed for use during warm-up movements. Positioned above the knee, this resistance band is used to activate the hips, glutes, and external rotators. It is claimed to encourage better alignment and form during training when used during warm-up exercises or the lift itself.
This mobility band measures 3-inches wide and is described as offering level 2 resistance, although the actual resistance provided is not outlined in pounds/kilos as you sometimes see with resistance bands. There is a sizing guide, but there are some users who found the sizing ran very small and resistance was lacking. That said, the majority of reviews were positive and highlighted how well the Mark Bell Sling Shot Hip Circle stays in place while effectively activating lower-body muscle groups.
