Rep Fitness Open Trap Bar

The Rep Fitness Open Trap Bar is designed to place the weight directly in line with your center of gravity instead of in front like a traditional barbell.

 

It has neutral grip handles that make deadlifting much less technique intensive, while its open design allows for a versatile range of movements like squats, lunges, and presses.

The bar has a built-in deadlift jack that makes loading and unloading plates easy and acts as a counterweight.
