SSB Chain Handles: The Anti-Cheat Accessory for More Effective Squats
The chain handles, popularized as "Nunchaku" by physical trainer Killian Hagen, represent a major evolution for your Safety Squat Bar training. This accessory is part of our range of specialty Olympic bars, designed for demanding practitioners.
Why Choose Chain Handles?
Unlike traditional rigid handles, the chains force you to keep the bar in a low position. It's impossible to push upwards to help you: each repetition fully engages your quadriceps, glutes, and spinal erectors.
Result: you develop real functional strength, without compensation or cheating — even unintentionally.
Which SSB Handle to Choose?
Chain handles are aimed at intermediate and advanced practitioners looking to strengthen their squat without cheating, demanding physical trainers, and strength athletes seeking optimal transfer to competition.
If you are looking for joint comfort or versatility, other options are available in our range. The L Handle with its 90° angle reduces wrist stress and allows you to use your SSB for rowing. The Long Handles offer an extended lever arm for those who prefer a wider grip or want more lateral control over the bar.
For Who?
These handles are designed for intermediate and advanced lifters looking to strengthen their squat without cheating, demanding strength coaches, and strength athletes seeking optimal transfer to competition.
