Saw a video of someone using it with a dumbell for rows - very cool.

Looks like a Vegas-based company. Hopefully, this dude is smart enough now to get a % of the company. $249 price point is a bit steep but the industry is full of sheep.

Imagine if he'd have invented this while he was competing.

*I'm also assuming he would have used this to bring out back detail like he never had while competing.

Destined for the Hall of Fame along with Levrone’s Triceptor and Seth Feroce’s Isolator. Not to mention Mike OHearns Assfuckinator.

Out of all the crap that is peddled, it actually looks like a decent piece of equipment. I like how you can adjust the handles from close to wide grip. Good concept.

Still won't buy.

Damn good piece of equipment. Every gym should have one.

you think that makes a different whether you use close or wide grip?

im waiting for charles glass too come up with his model, it will let you change the grip and angles hundreds of ways

Agreed. I think it’s a pretty cool concept.

Too expensive. I use a M.A.G. handles and they are fantastic.

Hi Flex!

The video says used for 17 different exercises then proceed to show nothing but rows and not even upright rows...

Wheeler looks like a retard version of a jelly bean with tattoos. I will say that the product name, "Back Widow" is rather clever.

To me, Dave Draper's "Top Squat" is a better piece of useful equipment.

I’m a gym owner and have a crap load of handles. But if I was just somebody that worked out at a gym or if I had a home gym I would buy this in a second. I have used it this thing is awesome. The Different grips you can use for a T-bar row are really cool. It’s also a dead lift jack and it has several widths. for rowing or pull downs.

Oh shoot. Just watched the video and basically it says all that.

Stupid hunk of junk that’ll sooner rather than later find its way into a rusty pail out back the gym filled with oily battle thongs, crushed Joe Weider Muscle Builder protein cans, torn brochures from The Mirage, and a few cum-crusted paper bags.

Unnecessarily complex.

Grab a handle overhand, underhand, use a neautral-grip attachment, or vary your grip width (if it’s such a big deal).

“Back Widow”. Oh brother.

Someone should hammer blow this tool direct in the kidneys.

What a pile of shit, it will be useless in the close grip position on the majority of pulldown and cable row machines as the length of the handle will make the stack bottom out before achieving full stretch.

Not quite as shit as basils biceps supinator, but pretty close
