Performance Benefits
Personalized Ergonomics: The 16° and 20° angles allow for a more natural wrist position during pressing or pulling movements, potentially reducing joint strain.
Weight Management: Aluminum handles can be used on the MG-4N bar to significantly reduce the overall weight of the bar (shaving off up to 6+ lbs compared to stainless steel sets), making it more accessible for high-rep or overhead training.
Variable Grip Training: Swapping between the standard 28.5MM handles and the 45MM "fat" handles allows users to emphasize forearm and grip strength during traditional back or arm exercises.
Consistent Tactile Feedback: Regardless of material choice, the Ohio knurling provides a secure, non-slip grip that athletes have trusted for over a decade.
Maintenance and Care
Aluminum Care: Anodized aluminum handles should be wiped down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using metal wire brushes, which can scratch the colored finish.
Stainless Steel & Steel Care: Use a plastic bristle brush to clean chalk and skin debris from the knurling. Stainless steel handles are the most resistant to rust, but regular cleaning ensures they stay in peak condition.
Thread Inspection: Before installing or swapping handles, ensure the threads on both the handle and the bar/attachment are clear of debris. Avoid over-tightening to prevent stripping the 1/2"-13 threads.
Hardware: If using with a cable attachment, ensure the appropriate black or bright zinc hardware is used and checked for tightness before each session.
