Hex Bar (Trap Bar) - Safety and Versatility
The Barbell Standard Hex Bar (aka Trap Bar, same thing with a different name) improves deadlift form and adds versatility to your workout routine. The hex bar design allows you to keep the weight aligned with your center of gravity, reducing the load on your lower back during deadlifts and unlocking new exercises in your gym. Forged from 188,000 PSI steel with a 1.5 medium knurl and two sets of grip options, the Barbell Standard Hex Bar is built for safety, reliability, and versatility.
Improve Deadlift Form
With the center of gravity directly across the center-line of your body, lower spine engagement is reduced during deadlifts by shifting the load to your hips when you're at the bottom of the lift.
Durability
Constructed with 188,000 PSI tensile strength steel and solid welded sleeves, this bar is rated for a 700LB static load
Secure Grip
Dual knurled grips
Free Straps and Collars
Every Olympic Hex Bar ships with free weightlifting straps and a pair of spring collars in the box.

I looked all over the internet for an affordable trap bar that was sturdy and didn't break the bank. This is it!
When I received my bar there was a little rust/oxidation at the end of the sleeves. It was cosmetic and didn't have any effect on the functionality of the bar. I however, was a bit disappointed because I want new equipment I purchase to look new. It may be psychological and I may be a bit petty but it is what it is. I notified BS and sent pictures of the bar...they immediately shipped me a new bar! I was very surprised actually because I really didn't think they'd do anything about it. After all it was only cosmetic. My new bar is picture perfect. Shiny, no rust, and was in my hands in a matter of a couple days.
This bar is big enough for my wide hips. The sleeves aren't so long it's impossible to maneuver the bar in your home/home gym. 700lb capacity. $192 (with the summer 20% discount). FREE SHIPPING. I looked around the internet for a hex bar. They are all either too expensive, too big/too narrow, weight capacity was lacking, and shipping expenses on top of all that. I ended up finding BS and within 24 hours or so of discovering the site I placed my order. I didn't need to look any further because I found what I was looking for. If you're like me and need a trap bar that's worthy and you're not yet ready to spend every dime you got on one look no further because this is it!
