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.

I heard a bunch of people saying it was on back order but it came early or on time .Not so with mine, it was delayed multiple times. Phone support is absolutely terrible. Now for the bar good padding, and the angle of the bend is nice other than that it's just a thick bar.No frill frills, no bearings for the weight to move on, no knurls. Just decently welded terribly chromed overpriced bar. Now it does what it's supposed to but at it's price it should have way better features. Also it seem to be off balance and heavier to one side. But I haven't measured everything to make sure lengths and welds are the same.So overall it works, as usual it could be way better or way cheaper.

I've ordered a number of Titan pieces in the past (the buffalo bar comes to mind) that were minimal quality. However, recently I've been super impressed. The X-3 dip attachment, the X-3 roller j-cups, and the SSB all came boxed perfectly and in great shape. I've received all of these items in the past 3 months. This is a huge improvement over what I had come to expect from Titan. The SSB in particular is an amazing bar and really helps me to add a second squat day to my week without crushing my shoulders. The padding is really good quality and the bar just feels right to hit the quads better in squats. I also find that I want to do good mornings with each leg day. Totally ruins my hamstrings and helps to hit the right spots without the shoulder issues from using a straight bar. I'd buy this product again if I had to and I'll keep looking at the new equipment from Titan because what I've seen lately has been awesome.

Allows me to squat without messing up my back! Quality is great for the price. It did get a little damaged during shipping (one side popped out of the box) , but overall no big deal. Very happy.

First product purchase from Titan. Quality, value and a surprise. I made the purchase knowing it was on backorder and an estimate of in stock about 60 days out. No problem. 3 days later I received an email that the item was shipping. Bonus! Product arrived I perfect condition. Great job Titan.

Great bar, solid af, all welds are perfect, nothing uneven or warped. Pad is firm. "Look ma, no hands!" Said it was on backorder until January. Ordered on December 1, got here on the 9th! Highly recommend!

I have never used any other Safety Squat Bars so I can’t compare it to other ones. But the comfort level on it is amazing.

Solid bar for the price. Very useful for those with mobility issues, and great for better quad targeting. After years of not being able to do squats, I felt myself longing for them again. I'd have an old shoulder injury, that just leaves one shoulder a bit less mobile, making even high bar squats a difficult task. I'm also very tall, and my normal squat involved a lot of low back movement. This bar fixes the shoulder issue completely, and my squat form on video looks damn good now. My lean in the bottom of the squat looks way more normal, and I find my quads working harder than low bar squats. I am older trainee, and I feel like this bar really improves my form in training. I'm now squatting 2x a week again, and feeling stronger than I have in a long time!! Couple other notes... the bar is 61 lbs (I weighed it as well to verify), which is a bit heavier than your standard bar. Takes a bit of getting use to, but the balance is perfect. I don't even need to hold on to the handles when squatting and can really focus on form through the lift. A few notes on Titan... I've been slowly buying equipment from them for the last year, and have been pleased with each successive item I have purchased from them. Shipping for the most part has been surprisingly fast, and the equipment has all been solid including this piece. The price is right, and they are one of the few manufactures that actually seems to have things in stock during covid times. I had this one on back -order and it arrived a month earlier than expected!!! I haven't had any quality issues what so ever, and had a small order where the shipment got lost and Titan support shipped out the item right away to me. Kudos to Titan or great products
