This Open trap bar PRO is designed for lifting ease, opening the benefits of deadlifting to more people. The open design supports a variety of lunges and carries in addition to deadlifts.
This hex bar has been meticulously designed to help athletes learn correct dead lift form and trap shrug technique. The unique shape of the Open Hex Bar can also be used by athletes who suffer from chronic lower back pain when dead lifting with traditional Olympic barbells as hex bars place less of the barbell load on the lower back in comparison to regular barbells
The bar easily moves between the upright storage / bar jack and the horizontal lifting position. It rests on feet and takes up the role as a bar jack which provides ample clearance for unencumbered loading and unloading.
- Unique open frame design
- Knurled neutral grip handles
- Barbell load is distributed more evenly across the body and less load is placed on the lower lumbar spine
- Long weight plate sleeve which allows athletes to increase the load of the barbell significantly
- Can be gripped with either high or low grip position
- Can be used for dead lifts, shrugs, and neutral grip bench press movements
