Arch Nemesis Swiss Bar

Iffy shoulders? Or great shoulders you'd like to KEEP that way? The straight bar wasn't built for everybody, and after enough pressing sessions, the wear shows up in places your warm-up can't fix.

The Arch Nemesis Swiss Bar is the answer.

THREE angled neutral grips (also known as a football bar or multi-grip bar. Same idea, same shoulder-saving logic). A built-in cable hook that turns one bar into a half-dozen lifts. Cambered design that finds the angle your shoulders actually want (turns out it's not the same angle a flat bar forces on them).

Coarse knurling. Glossy powder coat. Laser-cut end caps. 49.7 mm sleeves that accept any standard Olympic plate and collar. 600 lbs / 272 kg capacity. LIMITED LIFETIME frame warranty.

Swiss bar bench press. Bent-over rows. Overhead press. Tricep work. Hook it to your cable tower for lat pulldowns. Suspension push-ups. Inverted rows. At 24 lbs / 10 kg, it's light enough to clip to a cable — and heavy enough to load hard.

4.7 stars from 200+ lifters. The reviews keep saying the same thing: "this Swiss bar saved my pressing." Combat athletes. Post-surgery lifters. Anyone with cranky shoulders. The arch finds the angle that works.

Pair it with the B.o.S. Belt Squat Machine or the Lat Pulldown / Low Row Machine for the full specialty stack. It will work with any competitors' cable machine that uses a carabiner (traitor). Or just rack it up tomorrow morning and feel the difference on rep one.

IMPORTANT: The sleeves on the Arch Nemesis Bar won't rotate like a barbell sleeve but have a 49.7mm diameter, so Olympic collars will fit correctly. This means axle collars are NOT needed.
