WHY USE A FOOTBALL BAR?

The football bar was originally designed to accommodate the needs of football players who required a safer way to lift weights without aggravating shoulder and wrist injuries.

Here’s why you should use a football bar:

  • Reduced shoulder strain: A football bar's neutral grip is more comfortable on the shoulders than a traditional barbell, so it’s great for enabling athletes to continue benching, even with shoulder problems.
  • Wrist comfort: The 35mm diameter handles ease strain on the wrists, making pressing movements more comfortable than traditional barbells. 
  • New training stimulus: The football bar can help you to hit your chest, triceps, and shoulders, making it great for all strength athletes, including bodybuilders.

STRENGTH SHOP FOOTBALL BAR

The Football Bar has a neutral grip thanks to its angled handles, so it’s a great option for those with shoulder problems who still want to bench. The 35mm diameter handles also reduce wrist strain compared to a traditional barbell.

This bar suits strength athletes who want to train their chest, arms, and shoulders while reducing injury risks. It’s also great for adding a new training stimulus to your routine, so it can be a good choice for bodybuilders looking to shake up their chest and arm training.

Whether breaking through a plateau or adding variety to your routine, the Football Bar is a great addition to most gyms.

FAQ

What exercises can I use the Football Bar for?
Most lifters use a football bar for bench presses, but it can also be used for tricep extensions, hammer curls, and more. It’s an excellent option for athletes who want to train their upper body but have problems using a traditional barbell.

How does the Football Bar help athletes with shoulder problems?
The angled handles provide a neutral grip, reducing strain on the shoulder joints and making pressing movements safer and more comfortable for those with shoulder issues. This can also make it easier to perform tricep extensions and hammer curls, which are great for athletes who want to work on their arms without shoulder and wrist strain.

Yes, the Strength Shop Football Bar can handle up to 200kg. It also comes with a 2-year manufacturer warranty for peace of mind.

What a lifesaver!
Model: 17749N, Model: 17749N
The usual box stores wanted around $150-$200 for a New and or Refurbished starter. The Ezexpreze 17749 was such a great deal and It bolted up nicely to my 1999 TJ with the 4.0 4x4! Its a great replacement, I've had it for about half a year but it starts with ease. I'll definitely get me another one as a backup at this price point!

Starter is impressive
Model: 34009N
Easy to order and install. 9 pin gear instead of 10 gave lots of extra torque. Mower starts alot easier

Working good
Model: 17960N
07 Honda Accord Finally had to replace the OEM starter I went with this one because I'm not sure how long I'll have the car. So far so good strong starts. The starter is in a bad location. Not impossible but not exactly easy to get to. Whatch some YouTube videos I just took the manifold off so I had some room to work.
