SSB L-handles: versatility and comfort for your training
The L-handles are an ergonomic step forward for your Safety Squat Bar. This accessory is part of our range of specialty Olympic bars, designed for demanding lifters looking to vary their movements.
Why choose the L-handles?
Unlike classic straight handles, the 90° angle places your wrists in a neutral position. This configuration reduces joint stress and allows longer sets without discomfort. For athletes suffering from elbow or shoulder pain — often linked to years of work on traditional Olympic bars — this is often the answer.
Bonus: these handles turn your SSB into a rowing tool. Rest it on an incline bench, grab the L-handles and perform seal rows for a thicker back, without spinal compression. A smart way to get more out of your investment in bars & weights.
