Hex Bar

The Hex bar (or Trap bar) is most used in the gym for deadlifting as an alternative to the traditional straight bar deadlift. The Hex bar will put less stress on the lower back, especially at the start of the movement by centering the body in the middle of the bar (as opposed to behind the bar for traditional deadlifts). This makes this bar a common choice for people with back problems.

Safety Squat Bar

The Safety Squat bar is a very versatile piece of equipment that can be used to help increase strength on your squat while reducing risk of injury. The idea is that the bar helps keep you in a more upright position, which helps put the load directly on your centre of gravity decreasing the load on the lower back. In turn this upright position also helps keep the core engaged which allows for better positioning of your lower extremities like your hips and knees, which again prevents injury. For those who have mobility issues in the shoulder elbow and wrist, which can make a traditional straight bar squat challenging, this is the bar for you!

Farmer Walk Bar

Farmers walks exercises are great for all users and can help the average person improve their mechanics for day-to-day activities.

May sound like an easy exercise but try balancing these 40lbs bars while walking and see how much coordination, balance, grip, and core strength is required.

Olympic Triceps Bar

Say good-bye to wrist strain when doing triceps exercises! The Olympic triceps bar allows for a neutral forearm grip when performing exercises, which helps with a stronger grip strength. Stronger grip allows users to add more weight and control exercises better that using traditional dumbbells. Maximize your workout by trying neutral grip triceps and chest exercises with this 20lb bar while reducing grip and forearm strain.

EZ Curl Bar

This is a great addition to your home gym due to its compact size. The EZ curl bar is designed to reduce stress on the forearms and wrist while doing bicep and tricep exercises. In comparison to a straight bar curl the ergonomic design of the ez curl bar stimulates more muscle activation. Pair this bar with a preacher curl bench and maximize gains by controlling your range of motion.

Super Curl Bar

This solid chrome Super curl bar does a better job and isolating the bicep muscle due to the neutral grip. The Super curl bar can also be used for hammer curls and skull crushers.
