Patent attributes
The multi-grip exercise bar includes an elongate cylindrical shaft having end sleeves at opposite ends for selective mounting of weights. The cylindrical shaft has a pair of intermediate, symmetrically disposed, offset, coplanar grip portions formed by trapezoidal bends in the shaft, defining a main longitudinal axis and an offset longitudinal axis. Eight knurled grips are formed on the shaft. A pair of handles extend from a central section of the shaft parallel to each other, providing another pair of grips. Two outer sections of the shaft along the main axis provide a wide pair of grips for straight lifts, and two sections along the offset axis provide a narrow pair of grips for straight lifts. The four oblique legs of the offset portions provide wide and narrow pairs of grips for curl lifts, with either internal or external rotation of the wrists. The two handles provide grips for triceps lifts.
