Safety Squat Olympic Bar - 61 LB Barbell - Shop Olympic, Specialty & Performance Barbells - Titan Fitness Reviews

4.9 Rating 590 Reviews

The Safety Squat Bar is a specialty training barbell outfitted with shoulder and arm pads to reduce unnecessary strain on your shoulders. As your weightlifting grows more intensive over time, the pain and discomfort of a traditional barbell squat will increase on your shoulders. That's why this Safety Squat Bar is so effective for beginners as well as enthusiasts.
The bend of the weighted sleeve helps to stabilize your center of gravity, by lowering where the weight plates are added. This balance is key to increasing the effectiveness of your barbell squats. Comfortable hand grips give you more control of the bar during the lift, boosting the security and safety of the exercise.

“The bar came packed very well, no issues whatsoever. Very solid and seems like it can take a beating. Don’t waste money on more expensive bars when you can get this one and use Jetta money for other things on here!”

“I am very pleased with the bar. It is a solid bar and the padding is perfect. I must say that this was well worth the wait on the back order. The loading capability is awesome not that I will ever come close to it but even with over 400 lbs there is no wip on the bar. This bar is very comparable to other "Big Name Brands." Titan has stepped up their game big time. Packaging was superb and well protected.”

“I just got the bar Oct 3, 2020. I am very happy with the bars appearance, build and performance. Pro’s 1- The bar is thick and solid. 2- Angle of the handles vs the camber of the bar feels great. 3- The width of the handles, on the shoulders feels great. 4- The padding feels great. 5- The feel of the bar on my back with 315 lbs, feels good. Balanced, secure and comfortable. 6- The weight sleeves look great and my olympic collars work fine. 7- The packaging for shipping was very good. Most large heavy items delivered to my house arrive damaged. The box was damaged in several places, but the bar survived unharmed. Cons 1- The chrome finish is not “show” quality. To me the finish is fine. 2- The welds are not “show” quality. To me they look fine. 3- The extra wide padding makes the bar sit further back from my neck which adversely affects the feeling of handles pushing downward and decreases the feeling of the bars balance on my back. But I have not had any issues with the bar trying to slide down my back, if not holding onto the handles. I always hold onto the handles, so this is not a problem for me. 4- The bar is a little short for my rack. The straight bar needs to be another 1” longer (from downward camber to camber). The camber to camber measurement is about 46-1/2”. 5- Others have expressed concern of the covering of the padding. It is thin and feels nice. Time will tell how well it holds up. It looks nice and feels great. The cover was on backwards and had to be removed and re-installed. So far, I love the bar and it looks great. I am 6’ tall, weigh 270# and will be using this bar for 700# squats. The bar fits me well and feels balanced and comfortable on my back. If I run into any issues, I will either update this review or add another one.”

“I read a lot of reviews on the safety squat bar before I bought one. The reviews out there said this was as good as the best, at half the price. I bought it and started using it. I since have gone to my physical therapist used their EliteFTS ssb and guess what, there is absolutely no difference except I paid considerably less . You won’t be unhappy if you buy this, unless you are a brand snob.”

“I know Titan occasional receives criticism for condition of packaging, but this bar is packaged great. Standard box, but inside everything protected well by thick styrofoam and plastic wrap. Might be most well packaged fitness item I've received. No issues. So far seems like great bar at great price.”
