Experience a contraction your muscles have never felt.
Dumbbells only resist gravity. Machines guide movement. This bar is something completely different.
It forces continuous adduction resistance — meaning it fights your hands from coming together. Your chest doesn't just push aganist gravity. It pushes and contracts simultaneously against a force that gets harder the closer your hands get to center.
The result?
Inner chest that finally fires completely.
A pump so deep it hits like your first months of training. A contraction unparalleled by any other equipment.
In pull workouts, resists abduction which fights your hands from going wider. Rear delts work harder on one set of rows than they have in months of training.
Peak contraction at a level no other free weight has ever produced.
For Competitive Bodybuilders:
Stage-ready inner chest separation. Peak contraction at the level competition demands.
For Serious Home Gym Owners:
A completely different training stimulus that machines can't deliver and dumbbells never could.
One bar. Your existing rack. Zero additional space.
Every upper body movement becomes a new training experience.
No cables. No dedicated room. No clutter.
For Commercial Gyms:
Give your members something they can't get anywhere else. A training experience that stands apart from every other facility.
Symmetric sliding handles move in perfect sync — balanced even when held vertically. Engineered for years of heavy use.
Ideal for Bench Press, Shoulder Press, Rows, Upright Rows, Rear Delt Flies, Chest-Supported Rows, and Bicep Curls. Built for durability and long-term use. Use Silicone Spray for additional smoothness.

This Is A Completely Different Category Of Contraction and resistance.

Additional Lubrication for this barbell is not necessary, but for users looking to enhance the smoothness, we recommend spraying Silicone spray on the shaft.
This barbell is engineered to enhance muscle contraction and deliver an intense pump. For optimal results, we recommend using a weight that is neither too light nor too heavy—this allows for the smoothest motion with maximum contraction.
Due to the bar’s unique design, even lighter weights can feel significantly heavier, so it's best to start at a lower weight and gradually increase until you find the right resistance for your exercises.
Our V2 Sliding Grip Bar is 7 Feet 2 Inches in length, and 20KG (45lbs) in weight.
The Radian V2 Sliding Grip Bar is suitable for both home and commercial gym use. It is tested for long term durability and smooth performance, ensuring that it will be a long lasting addition to your gym.
- This bar does not necessarily require any extra lubrication. However, for users looking for a smoother motion, we recommend a light spray of Silicone over the shaft.
- Please ensure that the barbell shaft remains free from dust, dirt and residue by regularly cleaning the shaft with a dry cloth. Residue on the barbell shaft can reduce its smoothness, which can be immediately restored by this step.
- Avoid placing your fingers under and next to the moving handles.
- Keep long hair away from the handles. It is possible that the hair may be caught in the mechanism.
- Weights feel much heavier on this bar as compared to other equipment. Do not overload the bar more than your lifting capacity. We recommend trying the bar without weights initially.

Watch Instagram VideoThis thing is wild. The handles slide in & out as you press or row, so you can get a more complete muscle contraction. For example, every bench press can be like a combination Press + Fly to really hammer your chest.

Why not "Just Use Dumbbells" Instead?
Dumbbells primarily resist movement in the direction of gravity. The Radian Sliding Grip Bar V2 goes beyond this by not only resisting motion against gravity but also providing optimal resistance to adduction (bringing the handles closer together) during push exercises in a much better intensity and optimal fashion. Additionally, it resists abduction (moving the handles apart) during pull exercises, enhancing muscle engagement and contraction.
The resistance, combined with the controlled and symmetrical handle movement places the Radian Sliding Grip Bar V2 in a league of its own, offering superior muscle activation compared to traditional dumbbells and barbells. The resistance dynamically increases with added weight, leading to enhanced contraction and an unparalleled pump from the very first use.
Customer feedback has been overwhelmingly positive for push exercises, with many users praising the improved muscle engagement and strength gains. For pull exercises such as rows, upright rows, and rear delt flys, opinions vary—some users highly prefer it, while others opt for traditional equipment.
Perfect for Targeting the Inner Chest: Solving a Common Lifter’s Problem
One of the most remarkable features of the Sliding Grip Barbell is its ability to effectively target the inner chest during bench presses—better than any other equipment. For both beginners and advanced lifters, it’s common to feel chest exercises primarily in the outer chest. The Sliding Grip Barbell solves this issue by resisting adduction. Adduction engages the chest much more than just "pushing", therefore forcing the inner chest to engage more fully, providing a workout that finally hits the often-neglected area.
Compared to dumbbell flies, the Radian Sliding Grip Barbell V2 ensures higher and consistent resistance throughout the entire range of motion, and all parts of the motion. Additionally, its symmetrical handle movement adds control, significantly improving muscle contraction and mind-muscle connection.
Home Gym Advantages
Home gym machines eat space permanently. Cables require installation. This bar delivers something completely different—in your existing rack, with zero additional footprint.
One bar. Every movement. A completely unique contraction stimulus. No maintenance. No clutter.
For serious home gym owners, this is the upgrade that changes everything.
Commercial Gym Advantages
Serious lifters, competitive bodybuilders, and physique athletes — your most dedicated members — will feel the difference on their very first set and talk about it to everyone on the floor.
In a market where most commercial gyms run identical equipment lineups, the Radian V2 gives your facility something genuinely different. A bar your members will ask about, train on consistently, and keep coming back for. One bar that makes your gym stand out — and gives your most serious members a reason to stay.
Who Is the Radian V2 For?
Bodybuilders looking to maximize muscle contraction, constant tension, and hypertrophy.
Home Gym Owners who want the benefits of multiple chest and shoulder machines without sacrificing valuable floor space.
Commercial Gyms looking to offer members a truly unique and innovative piece of equipment.
Experienced Lifters seeking a fresh challenge and a new resistance profile to break through training plateaus.
Strength Athletes wanting to incorporate a different training stimulus into accessory work.
Fitness Enthusiasts who appreciate precision-engineered equipment and enjoy trying innovative training tools.
SYNCHRONIZED HANDLE MOVEMENT
Both the handles of the bar move in a synchronized fashion once both of them are gripped.
TRAINING RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Initially, practise the exercises using the empty bar, without weights. Then slowly add weights to the movement. Weights feel much heavier on this bar compared to other equipment.
2. For best possible contraction and pump, use medium weight. Do not load the bar more than your capacity.
3. Just at the liftoff, make sure both the handles are equidistant from the Centre. The handles during workout move in a synchronized manner.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The Bar weighs 45LBS or 20kg, and is 7 feet 2 inches in length.
Yes, once both the handles are grabbed, they move in synchronized fashion during exercise. In no way under normal circumstances can any handle "slip" while exercising.
Yes, much heavier due to the bars unique style of resistance.
The weight Capacity of this bar is 700lbs.
Much better contraction and much easier control due to synchronized handle movement.
Yes! The handles are knurled. It's not overly aggressive, but moderately so.
It is Cerakote for both the shaft and sleeves.
Yes, tested severely on both heavy and light weights, on different handle movement speeds.
No, its not just for bench press. It can be used for rows, upright rows, rear delt fly movement and shoulder press as well.
This bar is more stable than dumbbells, and less stable than a normal bar. If you don't find any stability problems with dumbbell presses, you most likely wont find it on this bar too. However, using very heavy weight beyond the user's capacity is dangerous, like it is on every barbell.
