The Launch Pad helps place the shoulders and body in an optimal position when benching, which is huge in a rehab setting or when teaching the movement pattern. It is also awesome at helping engage more motor units / muscle recruitment by allowing greater ranges of motion. While the focus is the bench press, it's extremely versatile for enhancing many exercises - very easy and quick to set up and use.

The Science Behind the Strength

Traditional flat benches force your shoulders into an unnatural "passive fulcrum" position – it's why even perfect form can still leave you with nagging shoulder pain and stalled gains. The Launch Pad's precision-engineered and patented design ensures:

DEEPER RANGE
OF MOTION

leading to better muscle recruitment, strength development, and flexibility gains.

GROOVE PROPER
MOTION PATTERNS

through automatic body positioning creating stronger mind-muscle connections across a variety of exercises.

SUPERIOR JOINT
PROTECTION

The Launch Pad’s ergonomic design supports the lower back and aligns the shoulders, making it ideal for injury prevention and rehabilitation.

MAXIMIZE POWER
OUTPUT

with proper exercise mechanics and controlled eccentrics. Designed to enhance performance across all training goals.

IMMEDIATE RESULTS YOU CAN FEEL

Coaching a track and field team, I have seen the incredible benefit The Launch Pad brings. It helps our athletes maintain proper form and prevent shoulder injuries, crucial for their performance and longevity.

- Eric S.

The Launch Pad really prevents lower back tightness, and allows you to have that natural arch and perfect position for better performance on your lifts. I like that you can use it on so many different exercises outside of chest for back, legs, etc. too. It definitely helps with lower back pains on leg press!

As a competitive bodybuilder, The Launch Pad has taken my training to new heights. It supports optimal muscle activation and strength gains, making it an essential tool for anyone serious about lifting.

- Robert L.

For a powerlifter like me, optimizing performance is crucial. The Launch Pad has enhanced my range of motion and muscle activation during bench presses and other workouts. It’s an indispensable piece of equipment in my routine.

- Davi W.

Using The Launch Pad at home has made my workouts more comfortable. My range of motion is better, and my shoulders don't hurt as much. 10/10 would recommend!

- Peter G.

I am a rugby player and, as a result, strength and power are essential. The Launch Pad has improved my bench press form and muscle activation, supporting my training goals for rugby.

- Kevin P.

I’m a National NPC Bikini Competitor so every workout being optimized is important to me. As a Bikini Athlete I had very little experience bench pressing, so I was definitely hesitant at first. Once trying the Launch Pad I was blown away immediately. I was able to focus on just moving the weight, it put me in place and I could feel the muscle engagement. It felt natural and took away my insecurity of improper form. I was even complimented on my form afterwards!

- Deayroinee M.

I had a level 2 tear on my left supraspinatus (rotator cuff) and was unable to do flat bench until I bought one of the Launch Pad's and threw it on the bench. It automatically corrected my form and was able to help me through my injury. I use it on pretty much everything I can throw it on, especially flat bench and incline as it has not only helped my form, but my strength has also improved, allowing my muscles to stretch more.

YOUR BEST LIFTS ARE AHEAD OF YOU

Founder & Creator, Andrew Harvot’s, Story

The bench press is more than just an exercise—it’s a key part of your strength journey, and mine too.

The idea for The Launch Pad came from my own personal experience, where poor bench press alignment just led to frustration and stalled progress. I knew there had to be a better solution—one that ensures perfect positioning based on body biomechanics, allowing your body to focus on building strength and power, while reducing fatigue and keeping every workout safer and more effective.

From layered gym flooring, molded and carved to precise angles, to the precision-engineered and patented version of The Launch Pad you see now, I’ve focused on one thing: creating a tool that engages the right muscles, boosts strength, protects your joints, and unlocks your full potential.

I created The Launch Pad because I believe every lifter deserves to train at their peak without compromising their health. Ready to discover what your pressing power can really be?
