Everything you've ever known about bench shirts will change with The Fury by Titan. Up to now all shirts were reverse
engineered off of the same conventional pattern …… variations of a common theme.
The Fury goes in a
completely unique direction.
Examine the design of a
conventional shirt compared to The Fury and see
how The Fury approaches benching in a whole new
way to deliver bigger benches and unheard of guarantees.
Sleeve Angle
A picture is worth a thousand words!
Sleeve angle is what makes a shirt work. The Fury gets right to the
point! A 90° sleeve angle means energy is stored as soon as the elbows are
cracked and the bar descent begins. More energy storage (resistance) means more
explosive power and bigger benches.
Sleeve Base
Design
Conventional patterns result in a peaked stress
point.
The Fury, on the other hand, uses a
unique hemispherical sleeve base design that distributes stress around
the base of the sleeve. Combined with our Titan stitching, the popping and
crackling of seams and fabric is now a thing of the past.
Shirt Backs
Back Panel …… A critical component?
More so than
most lifters ever realized! Heavy back material used by other brands only
restricts optimal performance by constricting the lats and making it more
difficult to get and maintain an arch.
By using a stretch back The Fury allows for:
- easier arching
- maximum lat expansion and lat utilization while benching
- less effort to put on and less effort to take off!
This is a
critical component found only on the Fury!
FABRIC
Other shirts use 1980's technology.
And even the "high tech" fabric used in the competitors top of the line gear
continues to stretch and stretch.
The Fury
features NXG+ fabric found only on Titan products. NXG is the most supportive, strongest fabric
in the lifting world. It is virtually tear proof and run proof.

IPF APPROVED
The F6 is specifically
designed for arched benchers, to improve control and increase the potential for
bigger benches!
Titan does it again with a clean,
clear-cut design that is implemented with world class craftsmanship and the
strongest materials in the powerlifting world.

F6:

- Here's Proof!
While an arch creates a short, efficient stroke that also allows for more
effective utilization of major supportive muscle groups such as the lats, the
very act of arching can sometimes create its own set of problems when using
bench shirts. Namely, control.
Control problems can be evident when the
lifter has to fight to keep the bar in the groove as it is descending. This type
control issue sometimes results in the bar skating off the "bubble" either back
towards the lifters head or forward towards the lifters abs.
Now
consider this.
|
|
How much power is expended to control the bar and keep it in
its optimal groove?
|
Think of it as a simple mathematical equation.
|
|
Bench Pressing Power - Groove Control Power Expenditure
= Maximum Bench
|
Now what happens if we can reduce the one variable, groove control
power expenditure, and allow that extra power to be applied to the pressing
movement?
|
| More Control and Bigger
Benches! |
The problem we identified for most of these type benchers was that their
sleeves actually tilted back while in the arched position, forcing them to exert
extra energy to pull the arms forward, control the groove and then lower and
press the weight.
To address this we established four goals: |
1. Lower the groove
2. Maximize stroke efficiency
3. Create
more control
4. Use the overall energy savings to increase
power |
| Read on to find out how we addressed
this. |
Like the Fury, the F6 sleeves are set at a 90° angle as you look down the
length of the shirt. However, the big difference is in the angle of the sleeves
as you look across the shirt. The sleeves on the F6 are set at a forward, tilted
angle.
 As the lifter lies down on the bench and begins arching into
position, the sleeves on the F6 tilt back to the optimum 90° angle in both planes - and only after the arched
position is assumed.
 This design
accomplishes:
1. A lower groove - the new sleeve allows
the bar to drop straight to the optimal pressing
point or "sweet spot" with less wandering of the
bar.
2. Maximum stroke efficiency - A more efficient
stroke is created since less energy is expended.
3. More
Control - a lower groove and maximum stroke efficiency creates more
stability and control.
4. Increased power - all of the
above add up to the ability to redirect previously expended power
to directly
pressing the bar UP ! |
All Titan shirts, the F6
and the Fury feature NXG+ fabric. Titan created it specifically for
powerlifting and it is still the strongest, most supportive fabric on the market
- virtually tear and run proof. NXG+ is constructed from super high tensile
strength polymer yarns utilizing much of the same technology used to produce
body armor. While NXG+ won't stop a bullet it can stop a monster weight dead in
its tracks and rebound it to completion.
And then there is the way we
use the fabric. Titan places the ribbed side down to accomplish two
things:
- maximum grip against the body to help create more energy storage, and
-
maximum wicking action to help move perspiration off the body faster.
This
helps keep perspiration from acting as a lubricant on the body
NXG+ is the original High Performance fabric, the real
thing. And the proof is in the performance and guarantees. Go to our guarantee
section and find out why the competition has never attempted to match or beat a
Titan guarantee.
Titan invented the concept and is
still improving on it. Our stretch material has been improved and now offers
more body, weight and strength. And it still offers the generous stretch
properties ideal for maximum utilization of the lats. We understand that
constriction and restriction of the lats and back is never a good idea on the
bench. All big benchers know that proper lat utilization is one of the most
unappreciated, overlooked and underused aspects of proper benching technique.
And don't forget one of the great fringe benefits that was an innovation
in itself - easy on and easy off application.
You can't create a shirt designed
to handle todays monster loads using yesterdays technology and materials. While
others still use lightweight threads that you can pop by hand, we use a state of
the art thread that is so strong, it is virtually impossible to break by hand.
While smooth as silk and designed to run through high-speed machinery at speeds
of up to 7,500 RPM, it holds incredible loads. Check out the photos!

thread supporting 3.75 kg (8.265 lbs.) of Ivanko calibrated plates. |
Two
threads looped, as in a stitch, supporting 10 kg (22.046 lbs.) of calibrated
Ivanko plates. |
We then take this thread and
use special needles to knit the thread in-between the fibers of
our NXG+ fabric.
Consider that all Titan shirts have more
stitching per square inch than any other shirt of its kind and you'll begin to
appreciate what type craftsmanship goes into any Titan shirt.
We never, never, never ….. never use a straight stitch!
This is
powerlifting and the stresses of our sport demand more. Straight stitching and
its variations are static and attempt to resist or fight stress.
Instead, we combine our special thread with our signature stitch that is
designed to expand and contract with the forces exerted on it. That's why you'll
never hear any snap, crackle or pop on any of our shirts.
| Sleeve to Chest Seam Construction:
|
The most critical seams on a shirt
are those that join the sleeve to the chest. If a shirt is going to tear, it's
usually not the seam itself that tears, but the fabric alongside the seam,
regardless of how many layers of separate fabric are sewn on top of the seam.
So, we take a different approach. We make as low profile a seam as
possible. Not a weaker seam, but a seam that offers less exposed area to stress.
Built into this seam system is a double redundant backup stitch system.
- The first stitch of the seam is created when the sleeve and chest are
joined using our signature stitch. See above for strength description
- It is
then backed up by a safety stitch and an overlock stitch. The safety stitch
backs up our signature stitch while the overlock stitch prevents stress from
unraveling any raw edges and running through the seam.

| Sides and Sleeve Seam Construction
|
Simply turn a Titan shirt inside out. You won't find a single straight
stitch throughout the entire shirt! We use our safety and overlock stitch for
all sides, sleeves and any place where two pieces of fabric have to be joined.
It costs more and it takes more time. But if you are under a record
load, which one would you rather have on?
The neck is one of the most
critical areas of this generation shirt. NO chances are taken. We created a low
profile collar constructed with a 6 ply folded seam held together with our Titan
thread and signature stitch to create the strongest, legal neckline possible.
