Olympic Safety Squat Bar - 750lb, 30mm, Chrome

Legion Olympic Safety Squat Bar (SSB)

The Legion Olympic Safety Squat Bar is purpose-built for lifters who want to squat heavy while reducing stress on the shoulders, elbows, and lower back. Featuring an advanced, ultra-load displacing yoke pad design, this bar allows you to maintain a strong, upright squat position while shifting the load more comfortably across the upper back.

Ideal for high-volume training, heavy squats, good mornings, and specialty pulling movements, the Legion SSB is trusted by strength athletes, powerlifters, and commercial gyms looking to extend training longevity without sacrificing performance.

Advanced Load-Displacing Yoke Design

This new and improved Safety Squat Bar features an upgraded yoke pad system engineered to evenly distribute weight across the upper back. Additional padding has been added to eliminate pressure points and prevent “daylight” gaps between the bar and the lifter’s shoulders.

Thicker, contoured shoulder pads provide a secure and locked-in feel for lifters of all body types—offering stability for broader athletes while still fitting those with narrower shoulders comfortably and confidently.

Shoulder- and Back-Friendly Squat Training

By positioning the load forward and lower than a traditional straight bar, the Legion Safety Squat Bar promotes a more upright torso during squats. This reduces strain on the shoulders, wrists, and elbows while helping decrease shear stress on the lower back.

The result is a safer, more sustainable way to train heavy squats and posterior-chain movements, especially for lifters recovering from shoulder limitations or training at high intensity year-round.

Built for Heavy, Everyday Use

Constructed for consistent, demanding training environments, the Legion Olympic Safety Squat Bar is rated for a 750 lb working capacity and built to handle even more under controlled conditions. Its solid construction and reinforced cambered design make it suitable for both commercial facilities and serious home gyms.

A durable chrome finish provides corrosion resistance and long-term protection, while the 30mm shaft delivers a solid, confidence-inspiring feel under load.
