WHY USE A BOW BAR?
-
Even weight distribution: The bow shape ensures that the load is evenly distributed across the back and shoulders – making it easier to handle larger weights without the bar rolling.
-
Maintains movement integrity: Unlike Cambered or Yoke bars, the Bow Bar doesn’t alter as your body moves, allowing for a more natural lifting technique.
-
Support for multiple lifts: Fully knurled for a secure grip, the Bow Bar is ideal for squats, Hise shrugs, good mornings, and lunges.
-
Increased safety and comfort: The bar's design minimises discomfort and the potential for injury when performing heavy squats.
