ABSTRACT:
A rotating multi-positional grip barbell device having a plurality of hand grip portions rotatably mounted relative to a bar, includes a housing assembly fixedly mounted to the bar, wherein the housing assembly is diametrically aligned relative to the bar, and a carrier ring support rotatably mounted relative to the housing assembly. A pair of bearing sets provide relative frictionless rotation between the housing assembly and the carrier ring support. An alternative embodiment includes an offset configuration of the weight supporting ends with the barbell having the rotating hand grips. The offset weight supporting ends are rotatable via a pair of swivel joints. The multi-positional grip provides a weightlifting exercise regimen that produces greater muscle toning and muscle building results.
