Olympic Trap-Shrug Bar

Tubular steel hex bar for deadlifts and shrugs. The handles sit in a neutral position and the sleeves are raised, which shortens the range and takes load off the back compared with a straight bar.

What sets it apart

• Neutral handles. Hands at your sides rather than in front: the hip comes in earlier and the lower back works less.
• Raised sleeves, which lift the plate off the floor and shorten the range.
• Integrated feet. It does not scratch the floor and the bar holds itself up while you load and unload.
• It takes up little room stored on edge.
