ATX Competition Powerlifting RAPTOR Squat Bar

A specific squat bar has long been favoured by the bigger lifter (due size of their frame and weight being lifted). It does feel a little unusual, if you’re not used to one – it feels solid! There’s no give and lots of room. The RAPTOR is the first speciality squat bar from the famed ATX Barbell Club division of the German brand ATX and is designed for competitive use in competitions like the OLO RAW INT’L PRO-AM and INSANITY meet, which attract some of the world’s best lifters.
