Swiss bar

I don't have a Swiss bar but a triceps bar which is basically the same but a closer grip.
Felt good...thoughts on these?

I know a woman who has that exact bar from Titan. She and her husband use it and like it. But I can tell that the handles are not perfectly lined up. It’s a little bit of an eye sore. Spend the extra money and get Sorinex or Rogue or Elite.  Titan is decent, but not perfect.

Titan is hit or miss. Lately theyve been on point. They will also take back anything, and all shipping is free.
I have one of those from Titan and its very good. Lined up correctly, etc.

It does alleviate some shoulder strain for sure, and of course you can use it for different things.
Hits some different angles, good to change things up here and there. Decent bar for sure..

The barbell bench has wrecked so many shoulders. I found declines and using a hands facing with a swiss bar is often a way to press pain free. Just realize many benches won't hold the swiss bar. The hooks on power racks usually work.

I don't disagree although I've heard good things about Favarger.
