The cambered bar bench press is one of the best ways to increase the strength off of your chest. For most people, this is the sticking point that kills them and really holds them back. This is especially true for lifters that do not use a bench shirt.
The cambered bar bench press is done like a regular bench press except done with a bar with a camber that allows you for a greater ROM. Your hands go much lower than usual.
For many lifters this ROM is OK. But if you do have shoulder or pec problems, the cambered bar can pose problems.
This bar is best used as a max effort lift for a rep max or a supplemental lift. What this means is that for max effort work, going to a 6-10RM is usually prescribed. For supplemental work, 3-5 sets of 6-12 reps works well. As a supplemental lift, this is done as a second exercise.
best regards
We actually do not sell that particular cambered bar. The only one we sell now is the rackable version.

I know some of our lifters still bench with it but does not have the same training effect (hands are same level as the bar hits your chest.) If you are interested, I would contact customer service at 888.854.8806 or via email and they can help with shipping costs.
