Excellent product. I had tweaked my neck on heavy cable rows a few years ago, leaving a lingering injury for months. After using the 6DS - this most recent purchase is my third one or so - it really seems to keep my neck centered, neutral, and stable, so I can exert myself without worry. My neck since healing might not be the 6DS's doing, but I haven't tweaked it since employing the 6DS. With my current order, I had an issue with the case, and their customer service responded to my email in literal minutes, providing a resolution to my concern. It's great to see such exceptional customer service and to see the company stand firmly behind their product. The only caveat I'll offer is some of the cases might not lock securely, so until they've upgraded the cases, getting a cheap retainer case here on Amazon for a few bucks is worth considering, or test out your case before going to the gym, and if the closure seems weak, perhaps put a rubber band on it. That said, I still wholeheartedly recommend the 6DS, as it's helped maintain the health of my neck when exerting myself close to failure on my heavier sets, and it does seem to allow that little bit of extra force production, which - when compounded over years of training, only adds to my progress in the gym.

This thing really works! I lift heavier, aligns my neck, and strengthens my jaw. Also helped eliminate my sleep apnea. Read more
I love the mouthpiece. I believe it works. The only thing I would change if they placed a front tab to insert it with the fingertips for better hygiene since you are touching weights, dumbbells etc. Read more
Excellent product I recommended highly get that extra bite force to get the weights up Read more
Really blown away by the difference this makes. Biggest issue I had was moving my jaw while doing heavy log presses. It would cause me to move my head and strain my neck, putting me back further from my goals. Since getting this mouthpiece, I haven't had a single strain or neck injury. I'm on my 2nd one, definitely give them a try. Read more
The media could not be loaded. Can't speak the the effectiveness of the mouthpiece. Molded it which went ok, took it to the gym the next day and it seemed to work ok (definitely not performance enhancing). Put it back in the case that comes with the mouthpiece when I was walking back to my truck unaware that the case was defective won't stay closed. It has fallen into the ether (searched everywhere including returning to the gym to search the parking lot). Over $40.00 for 1 use. I think it's overpriced to begin with and something cheaper and less invasive would be a better option (unless your into triggering your gag reflex everytime you put it in your mouth) but if your like to gamble, whatever you do don't use the case that comes with it!

The media could not be loaded. Loved the mouthpiece but the case closure is faulty on mine. Got to use my mouthpiece for 2 days before it got lost. I made sure to snap tge case shut but mine opened on its own walking out the gym and now my mouthpeice is lost somewhere in the gym. Looking at the case post loss mine just doesnt secure shut very well. Like the plastic is too short? So if youre gunna buy one get a different brand case and youre set. So for now Im out the money with a faulty cause and no mouthpeice. Read more
I swear by this product. I saw noticeable difference in my power output and breathing. You can literally pant while clenching. If you’re a clencher like me and bite down really hard while lifting this is for you. No only am I confident in clenching but I feel naked without it. I ALWAYS use this mouth piece on my heavy lifting days. I also use this mouth guard when practicing BJJ and Muay Thai. It’s like a binky a baby won’t drop. It does wear out in about 6-12months of constant use and starts to become uncomfortable but I’m so use to it it doesn’t even phase me. I’ve been using this specific mouth guard since October of 2020 and I won’t ever stop using it. I’m not superstitious when it comes to these things and I like to have proven reliability in their claims. You’re not gonna see like 20lbs increases in your lifts but I noticed a minimum of 5-10lbs easy on my land lifts just be using it no joke. I notice that I don’t fatigue my upper neck and traps from clenching as much either because I’m able to bite down on the guard. Idk my ONLY complaint is I wish it was more comfortable and that it doesn’t start to wear about the first 6 months, however I use VERY frequently roughly 4x a week for 1-2 hour sessions. Read more
