Olympic High Hex Bar for Heavier, Safer Lifts

For many athletes, the conventional barbell deadlift presents a trade-off between reward and risk, often placing significant stress on the lumbar spine. The Olympic High Hex Bar, also known as a trap bar, eliminates this risk by fundamentally changing the biomechanics of the lift.

By allowing you to step inside the frame, the hex bar aligns the weight directly with your center of gravity. This neutral alignment drastically reduces the shearing forces on your lower back, making it an indispensable tool for anyone with back issues or those looking to lift with maximum safety. This superior position allows you to pull more weight than with a straight bar, creating greater overload for accelerated muscle and strength gains.

The design also shifts the emphasis from the glutes and hamstrings more towards the quadriceps, offering a unique stimulus for building powerful legs. Featuring two sets of knurled handles, the raised grips provide a shorter range of motion perfect for beginners or max-effort attempts, while the lower handles offer a full range of motion equivalent to a standard barbell. Built from heavy-duty, zinc-plated solid steel, this bar is engineered to withstand the toughest training environments.

Key Features 

• Safer Lifting Biomechanics: The hexagonal frame centers your body, reducing lumbar stress and promoting proper deadlift form.

• Dual-Height Grip System: Features raised and standard-height handles (25mm diameter) to vary the range of motion and accommodate all users.

• Builds Superior Strength: Allows you to lift heavier loads than a conventional barbell, leading to greater strength and muscle growth.

• Secure Knurled Grips: Both handle sets are knurled for a firm, non-slip grip during heavy lifts.

• Heavy-Duty Steel Construction: Made from solid, zinc-plated steel for maximum durability and corrosion resistance.

• Olympic Sleeve Compatibility: Designed with 2-inch sleeves to fit all standard Olympic weight plates.
