CATCH Cambered Barbell
You're a powerlifter, and you know what's up. You're looking for a barbell that will help you build strength, stability, and power—and the Cambered Barbell is here to help.
This barbell is an awesome tool to add to your Specialty Barbell collection and the favourite of powerlifters everywhere. By adding a large camber to the weight sleeves, it hangs 40cm below nominal bar height, allowing you to increase range of motion or change the center of gravity.
During squats, this bar is tougher to use than a straight bar due to the "swinging" effect—but this is a massive advantage for building strength and stability once you master it. Here's where the center of gravity effect really comes into play, reducing pressure on your spine and changing the nature of the exercise in a big way.
When used for Bench Presses, this Cambered Barbell makes deeper negatives possible—stretching your chest and recruiting far more muscle fibers than with a straight bar.
