When I first discovered the manta at the gym, I thought it was great. No need for pads and wrapping towels to cushion the neck during squats.

After a while, I realized that there was a snobbery to using one. Die-hard gym rats considered it "cheating" or "for wimps".

I think it is pointless to debate the 'ethics' of a piec eof gym equipment. If you want to do squats without the pressure on your neck, get one and it will solve the problem.

I prefer to workout rather than engage in weight room bravado.

This manta ray is an essential tool for those of us who like to squat with the bar high on our necks. It significantly reduces the pain and risk of injury to our cervical spine and distributes the pressure across the top of the trapezius. This allows us to lift heavier weight safely. A must have for any serious lifter!

Bought this product due to having a history of cervical disc disease which required surgery and I'm now back to working out again with free weights. I have been training with weights for about 40 years. As I said in the title, it does what it's supposed to do. I thought I would have a difficult time getting used to it...I first tried it on without weight just to see how you wear it and wondered how this thing was even going to stay on. I have an olympic bench with a 7-foot standard bar and it fits a standard bar perfectly. I attached it to the bar, walked in for my squats and lifted the weights off the upright and was seriously and pleasantly surprised. No pressure on my neck, upper traps, or rear shoulders. It really felt better than the old foam pads I used to use...it fits perfect. When I went down for my squat I was surprised too how I could do a full squat without bending forward as much as I used to. It really allows you to worry less about gripping the bar, or the bar slipping. It's very comfortable and is all around an excellent product. Also of note was there was no low back strain at all. Try it..you can always return it if you want but I doubt you'll want to after trying it. I read all the other reviews and watched some online videos and wondered what the hype was and if it really did what it was supposed to. I'll let you be the judge now.

I will start with the negative: It is not form fitted to your body so there is a little awkwardness initially, and for some people it may not fit well at all. Positive: Although it is not a perfect mold for me, it fits pretty well and does exactly what it says. I am doing squats and standing barbell calf raises 50 pounds more than I was just a week prior to using it, and I am confident enough with the Manta Ray that i can probably go higher next time. By it spreading the pressure across your shoulders, and getting rid of the pain from the bar against your neck as well as helping with your posture, you can finally turn your focus away from pain and uncomfortableness and direct it to your main goal: having a great workout and actually doing reps at the weight you are meant to. Without the Manta Ray I'm not sure when I would ever see much progression in how much I can squat and calf lift because the neck pain prevented me from putting on heavier weights. Great product, I highly recommend it! If it doesn't fit just return it or resell it, it is worth risking the $5 you might have to spend to mail it back for the chance that it will fit and give you a much better lift.

The Manta Ray is a Must Have product for anyone needing to improve their form, and protect their Back. Even if you aren't using a lot of weight, it keeps the pressure on your shoulders, instead of your neck and back.

I needed something better than a towel. I had been pinching a nerve in by back on leg day. This solved that problem. The weight is spread out over a larger area and is more balanced. It was a tight fit on the bar, but once it is on it stays there.

Exactly what I was looking for. My wife uses it at our home gym and complained the bar cut into her shoulders and neck. This product alleviates all the discomfort associated with the pressure from the bar.

This product does just as it advertises. If you use a towel or "sissy" pad then you should definitely check this out. I hated squats before using the manta ray but now that I own one squats are doable pain free. Good product.
