lat pulldown handles

Handles and pull bars for the lat pulldown

Our lat pull handles and pull bars can be used universally on all standard cable pulls. The handles are attached to the snap hooks of the cable pulls using a ring eyelet - and then you can start your strength training. Our ATX Black Line handles in particular enable a jerk- and twist-free exercise sequence thanks to the double-bearing joint axis with 360° rotating ring eyelet. Due to the complexity of the human musculature, it is advantageous and recommended to train with different handles at different angles. This means that the focused muscle can be exposed to new stimuli again and again, which leads to sustainable and constant muscle growth. To ensure this, motion sports offers a large selection of different handles. Choose between lat pull handles, biceps and triceps handles as well as rowing handles and triceps ropes.

Handles and pull bars for lat pulldown and rowing

Handles and pull bars are used especially for training the back muscles. Lat pull bars are primarily used for training the latissimus. These are available in various designs - ergonomic, parallel and straight or curved. Rowing or parallel handles are primarily used for close rowing. The differences here are particularly in the angle of inclination. An optimal angle of inclination ensures an optimal angle of attack for the elbows, so that the back muscles can be contracted more easily and in a more targeted manner. In addition, the training is more ergonomic and easier on the joints. The knurling should be non-slip for a good grip.

Parallel grip : The parallel grip allows for close guidance to the body and helps to specifically target the lower back muscles during the workout and thus place optimal strain on them. The close exercise execution provides more muscle feeling for better training results. The rowing handle is ideal for rowing on the cable pull. For an even smoother and jerk-free run, we recommend the Row Bar with double-bearing joint axis.

Lat pull-down bar : With a lat pull-down bar, different parts of the back can be trained using different grip variations and grip widths. With a wide grip, the outer latissimus is used, while a narrow grip trains the inner muscles of the back. The classic lat pull-down bar is slightly curved and has a non-slip knurling. For an extra large range of motion, motion sports also offers lat bars with parallel curved handles . The grip position allows the training weight to be pulled deep into the back in order to achieve more muscle contraction. The ergonomic lat foam grips are used for more grip strength and muscle feeling. The lat pull-down handles have ergonomic grip surfaces that are shaped either inwards or outwards . When doing lat pull-downs, we recommend pulling the bar to the chest in order to generate maximum intensity and muscle contraction and to train ergonomically and safely.

triceps rope and biceps handles

Triceps rope : The triceps rope is primarily used - as the name suggests - for triceps training. The heavy-duty fitness rope made of black nylon is ideal for a varied triceps workout. By pulling the rope apart at the end of the exercise, maximum muscle contraction is created. The rope is also often used for pullovers, face pulls or biceps training. The triceps rope allows for a versatile grip position and variation in the movement sequences.

Biceps bar : The classic biceps handle is straight and has a smooth swivel joint and easy-grip knurling. Many athletes are increasingly opting for the more ergonomic version - the SZ Bar . The ergonomically shaped SZ handle supports joint-friendly training.

Foam Grips - ergonomic handle

We have recently started offering ATX foam grips in our shop. These are very different from conventional grips because they are ergonomically adapted to the human body. As already described above, different grips are used to train different muscle groups. Another common problem with back training is that the grip strength becomes weak before the back muscle is actually trained. This means that the back muscles are not stimulated to the maximum and the efficiency of the training is reduced. Thanks to the ergonomic shape of the foam grips, this is now a thing of the past. The optimal fit for the hands ensures that the forearms are relieved and the back muscles are better controlled. In addition, the foam grips are bent so that the elbows are pulled at the right angle to the body. The neoprene coating prevents annoying slipping and damage to the device.
