Collection: Specialty Weight Bars

Whether you are strength training to maintain a minimal standard of fitness or you’re trying to crush a personal best, a specialty weight bar can be just what the trainer ordered. Our Axle Bars are a great specialty bar to enhance any strength training program. The repeated use of the larger diameter barbell provides athletes with a number of ways to naturally develop grip strength and build massive, powerful forearms.

Any unnatural, repetitive movement or action over time will often manifest itself by leading to adverse and debilitating conditions. For example, those who are constantly around loud sounds will often, over time develop hearing loss. Astronauts who have spent prolonged periods in space will lose muscle mass and strength due to weightlessness experienced in zero gravity. 

The bench press exercise is another unnatural, repetitive movement, which in some cases can lead to deterioration in the shoulders causing excruciating pain and a loss of range of motion, a state commonly known as rotator condition. Our variety of Cambered Squat Bars reduces stress on the elbows & decreases the torque on the shoulder tendons and joints. It allows athletes to perform the squat exercise with the same intensity as you did prior to the onset of rotator condition or during recovery from a shoulder injury.
