Zach Even-Esh talks about the Rotater
October 21, 2009
Several months ago, I contacted Zach Evenesh and asked him if he’d be interested in evaluating the Rotater. Who is Zach Evenesh?
hardcore, underground strength coach
- the owner of The Underground Strength Coach Gymnasium – a hard core athletic training facility located in Edison, NJ
- Zach holds a BA in Health & Physical Education as well as an MA in Health Education
- wrote ‘The Ultimate Underground Training Manual‘, which has sold around the world
- His clientele consists of high school & college athletes, MMA fighters, Military & Law Enforcement personnel
- Zach is also a regular writer for TapouT Magazine, Men’s Fitness Magazine (as well being part of the Men’s Fitness Training Team) and was recently featured in Muscle & Fitness Magazine
Although he’s considered one of the premier strength coaches who’s constantly traveling and working, Zach responded to my email right away and said he’d be happy to give the Rotater a try.
Here is Zach’s response after using the Rotater:
The premier underground strength training website
“Chris -
The Rotater is an excellent tool for prehabbing and rehabbing the overall shoulder joint. Our athletes have been using it before and after their workouts, especially our Baseball players and they love it. The Rotater puts them in the perfect position for safety and proper execution which makes things easier for us to let them get at it.
Without a doubt, The Rotater should be part of every athlete’s shoulder prehab and health program.”
In Strength,

Baseball Strength Coach Believes in the Rotater
July 28, 2009
“Hey Chris,
I just received the Rotater today and I am instantly convinced that every baseball player needs to have this tool in their arsenal! Not only is it simple to use, it does exactly what you expect it to do with no learning curve.
Strength Training for baseball players
I can not imagine a ballplayer at any level not seeing the immediate value in this tool within the first minute of use.”
Thanks for the great tool,

A Valuable Tool for Every Baseball Pitcher
July 22, 2009
“I was recently in attendance at a sportsmedicine conference, and I happened to come across The Rotater, developed by Joint Mechanix, LLC. I was immediately intrigued by its design, and had Chris take me through its use.
"The Rotater would be a valuable tool to keep in the bag of every baseball pitcher"
Since I am the coordinator of athletic injury care for a large local school district, in addition to having a private practice specializing in rehabilitation, I immediately purchased one to try back at my office.
The Rotater has proved to be a valuable adjunct to use in caring for my shoulder patients. Whereas, teaching patients self-administered flexibility routines for the shoulder rotators has always been somewhat of a challenge, the easy to use Rotater now allows me to teach patients a simple and very effective way to perform self-stretching routines. Furthermore, I can now send them home with a device, and feel confident that they will continue to stretch in an appropriate manner.
The ability to connect exercise tubing also makes it an effective strengthening device. In addition, I believe that The Rotater would be a valuable tool to keep in the bag of every baseball pitcher. It would be a great adjunct to warmup and cooldown routines.
I want to commend Scott on a great design concept, and I look forward to continue using your device in my rehabilitation programs, as well as with my athletic teams. Great Job!”
Yours in Health,

Baseball Coach Praises Shoulder Stretching Device
July 22, 2009
Be proactive, prevent throwing injuries
The Rotater has exceeded all expectations I could think of prior to incorporating it into workout regimens during baseball training. Not only has it improved throwing mechanics, but also has improved the recovery time, and reduced injuries / soreness / inflamation from pitching and throwing practice sessions.
The Rotater is an excellent way to be proactive in injury prevention and i strongly recommend it to all sports medicine professionals and sports teams, at all levels, looking to safely enhance performance.

Athletic Trainer Amazed with Rotator Cuff Stretching Device
July 22, 2009
“When I saw you guys in Atlanta in 2006, I was fascinated by how this device (the Rotater) could provide such a good stretch of the rotator cuff. Usually if an athlete is going to try to stretch the R.C. (rotator cuff), they need another person to stretch it properly for them.
Shoulder flexibilty is essential for baseball players
I, being a former baseball pitcher, found that it provided a quality stretch in which the athlete or person using it could determine how much or how little of a stretch they wanted.
During baseball season I showed it to several players and they found this tool useful in giving them the type of stretch they desired. We hope to use it with more teams this upcoming Fall 2008 season.”
Thanks again,

Baseball player stretces his shoulder with the Rotater
“As a 20+ year player in The Mens Senior Baseball League and someone with a background in Sports Medicine I can attest to the benefit of using the Rotater in a comprehensive shoulder stretching program.
I use the Rotater after a general warmup which include calistenics and running 1/2 hour before game time. I then follow the recommended stretches outlined in the instructions and finish with general throwing and long toss.
The Rotater has increased my Range of Motion at the shoulder and reduced strain. Our pitchers have tried it and they like the specific stretch it provides at the shoulder girdle. Thanks for sharing the Rotater with our over 40 baseball players.”
