About PAPABABE Trap Bar, Shrug Bar, Hex Bar For Olympic
The trap bar was created and patented in 1985 by a powerlifter trying to work the muscles used in deadlifts and squats, despite chronic back pain. The purpose of the hex bar was to increase lifting weights without putting more stress on existing injuries. The bar is shaped into a six-sided space in the middle, with a sleeve for adding plates on either side, and handles to hold the weight by your sides.Great for beginnersMost beginners are told about the importance of deadlifts, but lifting heavy with a barbell takes some technique and training. Hex bar deadlifts offer a safe way to bypass this obstacle. Most beginners are shocked at how much weight they are able to lift with hex bar deadlifts, and this boost to confidence also serves as a great reward and motivator to keep building strength. Safer For Your Back Trap bar is actually much more aligned with your center of gravity. Since the weight is in line with your body, less strain is placed on your posterior chain; releasing your lower from doing the leg work, while still loading up your spine and lower body and giving them a good workout.Lift Heavier Immediately Hex bar mallow you to leverage the load more efficiently, recruiting muscle groups from both anterior and posterior chains. The hexagonal space allows you to bend deeper at the knees without hitting your kneecaps on the bar. A deeper knee bend will activate your quads and thighs, much like a back squat, which also correlates with lifting heavier loads.Specifications: - Overall length: 56" - Sleeve Length: 9.75" - Handle to Handle: 24.5" - Weight Capacity: 800 LB - Weight: 44 LB
