Serious fitness pros know the benefits and importance of mastering the barbell deadlift. The barbell deadlift exercise is essential for building strength and power in your legs, back, hip flexors, and core. It is one of the most popular exercises for serious gym-goers and the exercise most prone to inducing injury.  If you don’t use proper form during the deadlift, you can set yourself up for a painful back ache. In fact, just setting up for the exercise has a risk for potential injury. We all know the struggle of wrangling with a heavy plate while trying to fit it on the almost equally as heavy barbell. You not only strain your back from bending down so low while holding such heavy weight, but you also risk the barbell slipping and landing on your toes. Ouch. Yes, the struggle is real for us gym-rats and deadlift enthusiasts. Luckily, there’s the Barbell Jack. 

The Barbell Jack | Optimise your Workout

What is Barbell Jack? The Barbell Jack is an innovative tool designed specifically for avid gym-goers to assist them in loading and unloading weight plates onto their barbell. The Barbell Jack works like a carjack to help lift and hold your barbell in place so you can safely load or unload your weight plates. The small deadlift jack fits easily in a gym bag so that it can be transported regularly from home to gym. For those who have unfortunately experienced injury from loading their barbell for a deadlift, the Barbell Jack will be a welcome gym tool. Instead of struggling to hold your barbell up while painstakingly inching a heavy plate onto it (all while bending at an excruciatingly awkward angle) this deadlift jack does half the work for you. Made from durable yet lightweight material, the Barbell Jack is strong enough to hold up to 250 kg (550 lbs) of weight on each side during a plate change. The makers of the Barbell Jack have partnered with leading global safety and quality control company Intertek to ensure customers a safe user experience.
