However, there IS a solution! Step forward The Hex Deadlift Bar - an excellent alternative to the traditional squat bar or deadlift bar and a MUST-HAVE for the muscle building trainee! Hex Bar HistorySo what is a hex deadlift bar and why should you want one? This remarkable bar was the brainchild of Al Gerard, a North Carolina powerlifter who suffered from a painful lower back. Unable to train the deadlift productively, his idea was to create a parallel-handled 'frame' to stand in while exercising. Gerard reasoned this modified deadlift bar, or Trap Bar, would distribute the weight more in line with the body's natural centre of gravity thus removing the stress from the lower back. By doing this, the lower back is no longer the weak link when deadlifting. This subtle change lead to a more productive muscle building and strength training exercise - a benefit experienced by Al Gerard himself, as he witnessed strength gains in not only the deadlift but ALSO the squat! Moreover, Gerard noticed his traps had grown substantially and his grip had improved. Soon other serious lifters began to adopt this valuable training tool into their workouts, along with athletes and professional football stars... And so was born the Hex Bar!

To the home gym user training alone, this exercise is super-productive and super-safe - no worries about getting trapped under a heavy squat! Moreover, the stress goes onto the legs, hips and butt, while safeguarding the lower back. A dozen heavy reps and you KNOW you have been working out. Indeed, ONE focused set is ALL that is required to kick-start the muscle building process, making it one of the most effective muscle building exercises. 2. Exercise caution. While the hex bar deadlift is one of the safest training exercises it is ALSO one of the TOUGHEST. Because of this, training to failure should be discouraged. Your strength training goal should be to build yourself up, and not beat yourself up, so cycle your intensity as you gradually add iron to your bar. For more, see 20 rep deadlift. Couple this exercise with the dip exercise and the chin up and you will target ALL major muscle groups and begin the business of growing strong. 3. Show me the bars!
