Our take on the Rival Open Hex Trap Bar

The Rival Open Hex Trap Bar is a specialty barbell with an open front, so you can walk, lunge and carry with it as well as deadlift. Two fixed knurled handles give a thick and a thin neutral grip, and the feet double as wheels for moving the bar and loading plates upright. It holds up to 250 kg on Olympic 50 mm sleeves and weighs 17.5 kg. It suits home gym owners and strength athletes who want trap-bar deadlifts plus carries and lunges from one bar; closed hex bars are cheaper and simpler but cannot be walked with.

About the Rival Open Hex Trap Bar

The Rival Open Hex Trap Bar adds more functionality to a classic hex bar. Its open design allows deadlifts, lunges, farmer walks and shrugs, and it can also be used to train grip strength.

The bar has feet that make loading and unloading easy. Standing the bar upright lets plates slide on and off the sleeves without lifting the bar off the ground. The feet are also wheels, so the bar's position is easy to adjust between lifts.

It has two fixed knurled handles, one thick and one thin. Because the handles are fixed, the lift is more secure and stable. The sleeves fit all weight plates with an Olympic 50 mm / 2" hole.

Questions and answers

What can I do with an open trap bar that a closed one can't?
The open front lets you step through and walk, so lunges, farmer walks and loaded carries work. A closed hex bar traps you inside the frame, so it is limited to lifts done in place.
Does it fit my plates?
It takes plates with an Olympic 50 mm (2 inch) center hole. The loadable sleeve is 405 mm long per side.
How much weight can it hold?
Rival rates it to 250 kg total, including the 17.5 kg bar. That covers most training but limits very heavy deadlift work.
What are the two grips for?
The handles come in a thick and a thin diameter, both knurled and fixed. The thicker handle builds grip strength; the thinner one is easier to hold for volume work.
How do I load it?
Stand the bar on its feet and slide plates onto the sleeves, then wheel it into position. You don't need to lift the bar off the floor to change plates.
How big is it?
The bar is 2150 mm long, with 655 mm between the handles. Check your floor space before buying, since it is longer than a standard barbell.
Where is the Rival Open Hex Trap Bar cheapest?
At Rival Strength, for $204.00, as of our latest check.
