Secondary Weapons

Barbell -Tool used for many athletic movements that allow the body to move in a variety of different ways. Many exercises can be performed with the barbell alone. Some bars are equipped with knurling which help the athlete get a good grip. Plates are designed to slide on to the end of each side of the barbell to obtain the desired total weight.  Those weights are the secured by a collar so no sliding occurs during movement.

Dumbbell – A free weight that is designed for movements performed at various angles that a barbell can’t achieve. This tool can be used in pairs or individually for a different outcome in training.

Trap Bar -  Tool that is shaped hexagonal and is mainly designed for picking up heavy loads off the ground. Unlike the barbell the trap bar allows the athlete to step inside and perform at a different angle that the barbell won’t do. These angles of placement are what increases success in athletes and balances the body.
