7ft Multi Grip Olympic Barbell

Multi Grip Bar Exercises For Stronger & Healthier Shoulders

The 7ft Olympic Multi Grip Barbell provides the option of having an angled grip, or multiple neutral grips that vary in width. This lets you perform a variety of exercises and variations that you just can't do with your typical barbell. The many neutral grip options allow your shoulder to be oriented optimally. Angle grips, approximately 30 degrees, are also an option to add variation to your workout and comfort to your joints. The different grips will strengthen your muscles at different angles, which in turn makes you more functional. Demonstrated below are several exercises that can only be performed with  Olympic Multi Grip Barbell

Keys to Success:

• Grip the bar at shoulder width with the elbow slightly wider than the hands (30-45 degrees).
• Lower the bar without moving the upper arm with the wrists flexed (cocked).
• Once the forearm is in contact with the upper arm, press the bar to the extended position.
• The upper arm should not come forward or backward to keep maximal tension on the triceps.
• The wrists should stay flexed until lockout to alleviate unwanted strain on the elbow.

The chains are a great addition to this exercise because it decreases the weight at the bottom of the motion, taking much of the stress off the elbows and increasing stress on the triceps.
