The Gerrard Trap Bar
- as it was known was originally invented and patented
in a rhomboid (Diamond) shape.
With a few modifications to the shape (primarily adding a couple of extra sides)
it doesn't breach the copyright of the original design. This means we are now
able to bring this marvelous piece of equipment to you the way it was intended.
The extra 2 sides make the modified Trap Bar more "roomy" giving the
user plenty of space to perform deadlifts and shrugs with great
ease.
Made in the UK by a top quality fabrication shop, it is manufactured to
the highest specification to ensure your pleasure and satisfaction.
Heavy duty Black powder coated finish ensures your Trap Bar remains
in perfect condition, and has a long and active life.
Like many things, here at Gym RatZ
we strive only to bring you the highest quality goods at the best prices.
We don't sell gimmicks, just top quality effective products at the best

***Pete's Extra Review***
I have tried this device in the shop with a customer who was looking for some way of training legs at home without a spotter, and to say he was impressed is an understatement.
If you allow the weighted bar to travel up and down your body in a natural line,
with your feet together, the trap bar hits your quads beautifully. Move
the bar so you are lifting it with the weight held further forward, (in front
of your shins) and you have a killer lower back exercise, equivalent to dead
lifts. In fact, after loading the bar up and doing a couple of sets each, my
customer walked out with an Olympic Trap Bar in tow.
I guess that says something about it.
