Full Boar (Yellow) Sling Shot

Name: Full Boar (Yellow) Sling Shot
Brand: MB SlingShot
Rating: 4.75 (4 reviews)

The Full Boar (Yellow) Sling Shot is the mid-tier band in Mark Bell’s bench-press overload lineup, sitting between the Original (red) and the stiffer Maddog (black). Its Level 4 elastic construction (Rogue’s retailer listing puts it at Level 3 – the two sources disagree) lets lifters press roughly 10-20% beyond their raw max, and angled arm sleeves are cut specifically for larger biceps while still keeping the elbows tucked through the lift, reducing shoulder strain and elbow flare. It’s built for lifters benching 315 lb and up, though the manufacturer notes the assist is relative to the individual – the band works fine for lighter loads too if the fit and tension feel right.

Beyond the competition bench, it’s also used for overload dips and push-ups, and for training through minor shoulder or triceps issues by reducing strain at the bottom of the press. It comes in sizes L through 3XL, sized by bodyweight, with a note to size up for anyone over 6’4” or with larger-than-average forearms.

What is a Miscellaneou?

What’s in Miscellaneous

This is the catch-all for the conditioning tools and accessories that don’t fit a single equipment class — weighted vests and plate carriers, medicine and slam balls, plyo boxes, ab mats, and the odds and ends that round out a garage gym. Items land here because their job (loaded carries, jumps, core work) cuts across the categories rather than sitting neatly inside one.

Who it’s for

Anyone filling in the gaps around the big pieces. If you already have a rack, bar, and plates, this is where you find the vest for rucking and weighted push-ups, the ball for slams and wall throws, or the box for step-ups and box jumps. Match the tool to the training you actually do — a plate carrier for conditioning and rucking, plyo boxes for explosive work — rather than buying the whole shelf.

The Full Boar (Yellow) Sling Shot is Mark Bell’s mid-tier bench-press overload band, sitting between the Original (red) and the stiffer Maddog (black) in the lineup, and independent coverage is consistently positive with no notable complaints surfacing anywhere. Functionality is the standout: reviewers confirm the angled sleeves genuinely keep elbows tucked and reduce shoulder strain through the bottom of the press, and a side-by-side YouTube review found it noticeably more comfortable than the Original thanks to its longer, wider cut, while still delivering strong assistance for lifters pressing 315 lb and up. Build quality reads solid too – Rogue’s retailer page separately puts it at 4.2/5 across 47 reviews – though durability data is still thin for this specific color: the same reviewer’s older red Original started fraying at the seams after roughly six months of use, a wear pattern worth watching for on the yellow now that it’s seeing regular use. Versatility extends beyond the bench to dips and push-ups, and at $62 the value holds up well against the rest of the Sling Shot lineup, which is priced within a few dollars of each other regardless of stiffness level.

−Durability: long-term wear data on this specific yellow colorway is still thin -- the same reviewer's older red Original started fraying at the seams after about six months of regular use, a pattern worth watching for here too (YouTube: Frank Likes Fitness)
−Build quality: manufacturer's own site lists Level 4 elastic stiffness while Rogue's retailer listing lists it as Level 3 -- a real spec discrepancy between the two sources that buyers should note rather than a resolved fact
