It's very sturdy, fits perfectly with our Olympic bumper weights. The traction on the grip is great for heavy lifting. The best part are the handles. Unlike other bars, they are not fixed. It has plenty of foot space for me. Quality product.

I bought this bar for my home gym. One day, I tried to lift heavy weights, but I didn’t feel strong enough with normal bars. Then I used this special bar. It made lifting so much easier! I could stand in the middle and lift without hurting my back. Now I do deadlifts and squats with it every week.

Stated weight of bar is 35lbs. Feels every bit of that weight. Much better then trying to balance a straight bar with 120 lbs. on your neck when doing squats. No balance issues. Highly recommended for leg work outs and calf raises. Very solid and well constructed. I purchased the 1in. plate copy and love it. Handles work great as well. If you don't mind the price, this is the bar for you. Look at others then come back to his one. I am very pleased.

Knurling is really aggressive so you need gloves or you'll destroy your hands, but otherwise np.Sliding the collars on sounds cheap compared to my normal olympic bar, not sure what the sleeve is made of exactly but at least the collar slides on it easily.Despite it being a closed design, you can do lunges and split squats etc np.High handle squats and deadlifts feels amazing. Normally my adductors and glutes do most of the work on squats but this thing solves that problem and it's all on my quads. Deadlifts makes my glutes really sore, hams too.It just feels way more natural overall that putting the bar on my back so I'm loving it. You load it up as much as you want without the risk of injury. Taking plates off the bar is annoying but it just comes with the territory, not a complaint about the bar.The handles are mobile, dangling down when you let them go. I don't know how I feel about moving parts like that, makes me think it might break, but it doesn't feel like it will.So far so good. Aside from the knurling being too aggressive, this thing is great and I'll update it anything goes wrong with it.

Good price, great quality, love the rotating handles that help line up with your shoulder width. The sleeves require slightly smaller collars than traditional Olympic bar collars but they do include their own spring collars that fit perfectly. Really good alternative bar for deadlifts and squats.

I love doing deadlifts with this thing. Very heavy duty. Quality. This is my first trap bar (none of the gyms I’ve been to have had them). But now I can deadlift with decreased risk to my lower back. I love the way that exercise feels! The rotating handles are what sets this bar apart— makes it easier to store against a wall and adds a bit of comfort on your grip and shoulders while performing there w deadlift. Super pleased with my choice, as there are a lot of trap bars out there.Someone mentioned “rust”. Mine came with this weird coating of brownish, red iron dust all over the product and the bar. Could have been rust, I’m not sure, but it wiped off easily with a damp paper towel and hasn’t returned. Honestly it might bed be some type of protective coating so it doesn’t rust during shipment. Who knows. There also was a small, pointy bleb of metal sticking out on the handle that I intend to file off, but haven’t yet.I also saw someone wonder if it’s good foot tall people. I’m 6’0 and there’s no spacing issue at all.The worst thing about this is it came with an ad to download an app and enter your bank account info to enter a drawing. Looked for the app, was obviously not reputable, and it felt very scammy. Not sure what to think of it other than it has nothing to do with the great bar, so I won’t dock a star for that.Not a perfect product, but almost perfect, hence the five stars.

Extremely well packaged.Company took no chances of the item being damaged or parts lost in transit.Heavy, substantial, and robust piece of exercise equipment. Nice chrome finish. The handles flip in either direction adding to the units overall versatility. Very pleased with my purchase.

Awesome product and the price is a worth every penny. The box was damaged but the Hex bar was not harmed. I've been deadlifting since I was 14 and now I am 32 without any significant weight lifting injuries. Recently my lower back and glute muscle have been getting inflamed after barbell deadlifts. I purchased this Hex bar and within the 1st few times of usage my lowerback/glute pain is no more. The Hex bar does not put as much pressure on the lower back as much as the barbell and now I will never go back to the barbell deadlift as my main pull movement. I highlight recommend this product for longevity purposes.
