Dr. Ken's Log Bar



Here's what Dr. Ken's Log Bar looks like in a rack after a recent workout. As you can see, you'll need the 7-foot version if you plan on using a rack for lockouts, holds or partials. The Log Bar is [particularly useful for building up your pressing strength. The most useful feature of Dr. Ken's Log Bar is the neutral-grip handles - which take stress off the rotator cuffs and will allow you to perform many different exercises in greater comfort. This type of bar usually fits a lot of people to a "T".

You can substitute the Log Bar altogether for a normal barbell or alternate the two types of bars, adding variety to your program.
