BENEFITS OF A TRAP BAR
One of the most common trap/hex bar exercises is the deadlift.Shrugs and Farmers Walks are also a great way to use this special barbell.The major difference when you perform a hex bar deadlift to a conventional is: the centre of gravity, as thatyou’ll be standing literally in the bar rather than behind it. Most people can handle more absolute weight here than with a straight bar. Another component is that you’ll be lifting with a neutral grip.
SUITABLE FOR NEARLY ALL LIFTERS
This type of barbell is suitable for a high variety of people. Whether you want to add variation to your strength training, are juststarting out your strength sport journeyor evenif you have to work with or around injuries, the Olympic trap bar a great tool because it's technically less challenging and, allows staying more upright in the starting position, to ease strain on the back and a natural grip position. It’s loaded with any standard 50mm Olympic plate. Want to go really heavy? Ideally, you’d picksuper thin steel plates.
LET’S BROWSE OVER THIS HEX BAR FEATURES
The trap hex bar weight is 27kg unloaded and made of ultra-durable Q235 steel which is known for itstoughness, a great quality for a bar that can be used forup to 400kgload. To ensure you’ll be able to maintain a firm grip, theknurling is medium. This Olympic trap bar features 32.5cm of loadable sleeves for maximum weight, and the sleeves have a diameter of 50mm. With a total of 160cm in length, it’sideal for smaller training spaceslike basements or garages, while it's still long enough to be placed on a rack. You canchoose between two handle heightsby simply flipping the hex bar over.
Incredible value for money very well made fits perfectly in my garage gym along with my plates and texas deadlift bar. Really enjoy dealing with the guys in motherwell, bought my gear online and collected in person 10/10

Quality. 10/10
Order it and it arrived the next day. Packaged so well that it took an age to unwrap it. Actually better than the one I use in the gym. If you like to train with bumper plates you need the next one up. This is the third product I have bought from The Strength Shop and I'm yet to be disappointed. Cheers.

Very robust trap bar l
Have brought pretty much all my home gym gear from Strength Shop & this trap bar was my latest addition. It’s well built so will last a lifetime, can handle a lot of weight, knurling is extremely grippy & plenty of room on the sleeves for adding plates. Very happy & would definitely recommend.

Perfect as long as you are not a giant
Arrived quickly even with the free delivery option. Very well packaged (a little too well - it took me almost an hour to unwrap it). Quality is top notch - feels well built and looks like it will last a long time. It does feel a lot smaller than it looks in the pictures, and I am only 5 foot 9 so if you are an absolute mountain of a person you might feel a bit claustrophobic.
