Specialty bars

关于

Specialty barbells add variety and target new movement patterns — EZ curl bars, trap/hex bars, safety squat bars, and more. Each is built with durable steel and ergonomic grips to train safer and hit muscles a straight bar can't. Popular specialty bars EZ curl bar: angled grips for biceps, triceps, and forearms with less wrist strain. Trap / hex bar: a neutral-grip frame for safer, more powerful deadlifts, shrugs, and farmer's carries. Safety squat bar: shifts the load for squats that are easier on the shoulders and back. Frequently asked questions Why use a specialty bar? They reduce joint strain and let you target muscles and movements a standard barbell can't — great for accessory work and lifting around injuries. What's a trap/hex bar best for? Deadlifts, shrugs, and farmer's carries — the neutral grip is easier on the lower back and lets many lifters pull more weight. Do specialty bars fit standard plates? Yes — they use 2-inch Olympic sleeves that fit all Olympic plates. Which specialty bar should I add first? A trap/hex bar or EZ curl bar gives the most versatility for most home gyms.
