Olympic Safety Squat Bar

Olympic Safety Squat Bar

One of the classic exercises, squats workout your legs, your core and your back muscles. This Olympic Safety Squat Bar distributes the weight of the plates across your shoulders which therefore means less discomfort than a normal straight bar. It has also been found that users get a bit more emphasis on their quads with this bar. You can add your 2" Olympic plates and a saftey squat bar should also help increase your maximum load lift.

Makes Squats Easy?

Well not quite. But the safety squat bar will help your form and posture when exercising and the padded protection makes this a more comfortable bar for many. As a result it allows you to increase your exercise weight over and above what you were able to do with the bar against your neck. Made of stainless steel, the bar is 7ft in length and weighs 21kg.

*Max load capacity of 150kg.

Safety Squat Bar Benefits

As a staple exercise for many, some of the restrictions on improvement were down to the discomfort of weight on the back of the neck area. Focussing huge weight across the shoulders makes for a painful exercise.

Like a calf raise machine or squat machine, this prevents the total weight being right behind the neck area. This has made vast improvement achievable for many due to better form and also progression due to proper execution of the squat.
