WHY USE A FOOTBALL BAR?
The football bar was originally designed to accommodate the needs of football players who required a safer way to lift weights without aggravating shoulder and wrist injuries.
Here’s why you should use a football bar:
- Reduced shoulder strain: A football bar's neutral grip is more comfortable on the shoulders than a traditional barbell, so it’s great for enabling athletes to continue benching, even with shoulder problems.
- Wrist comfort: The 35mm diameter handles ease strain on the wrists, making pressing movements more comfortable than traditional barbells.
- New training stimulus: The football bar can help you to hit your chest, triceps, and shoulders, making it great for all strength athletes, including bodybuilders.
STRENGTH SHOP FOOTBALL BAR
The Football Bar has a neutral grip thanks to its angled handles, so it’s a great option for those with shoulder problems who still want to bench. The 35mm diameter handles also reduce wrist strain compared to a traditional barbell.
This bar suits strength athletes who want to train their chest, arms, and shoulders while reducing injury risks. It’s also great for adding a new training stimulus to your routine, so it can be a good choice for bodybuilders looking to shake up their chest and arm training.
