This just seems like an accident waiting to happen. All it'll take is one malfunction or slip of the grip for someone to get hurt. There is no way i would recommend this to anyone. Better off using dumbells or a barebell
The handles move in a symmetrically fashion. Once the handles are gripped, the bar or the handles wont slip even if the bar is held in a vertical fashion.
@RadianUSA but do you see the issue with this product? You have introduced variability with a piece of equipment that used to have inherent stability. Hands were always locked in place on the bar and you did not have to worry about horizontal movement of the arms. Now with these grips, the factor is now taken away and it's just a glorified dumbbell set up, but worse since you can't hit the ROM you could with dumbbells.
@@thedeadserv thanks for your interest! Once both the handles are gripped, both the handles move in a symmetric fashion. The bar or the handles then won't slip even if the bar is tilted!
Seems like an awful idea. Worse range of motion than dumbbells and i guarantee you cant go heavy with it which is the main reason someone uses a barbell over a dumbbell.
@testermonkey2304 you can't go heavy is true. But its due to its unique resistance style. The contraction is way better than dumbbells. We're not saying dumbbells are useless, but this bar surely has a very unique contraction, and an unmatched pump.
Best bar ive ever used.

How does it stay centered though I can't imagine any engineering that could compensate for imbalance?

Lmao just use dumbbells
Thank you for the comment! The bar offers much better contraction and pump
@@RadianUSAHow?
@@RadianUSA it shouldint unless u have terrible form for dumbells
@@RadianUSAit doesn’t, you can go way deeper with dumbells
It resists inward handle movement with a much higher intensity! It feels much more like a converging chest press machine.
