The ATE Buffalo Bar (Cambered Squat Bar)
The straight bar is great for a lot of movements such as deadlifts, bench press etc., but when it comes to squats, a lot of people feel stress on their back with straight bars. Introducing the ATE Buffalo Bar, which is cambered to provide stress relief on your back and make your squats more comfortable.
The camber angle helps you maintain a neutral position while reducing stress on your shoulder and bicep tendons. This increases your core stability while squatting.
The ATE Buffalo Bar is 7.8ft / 2380MM long, has a shaft diameter of 32mm and weighs 21kg. The bar shaft is finished in black oxide with a 1.5MM Diamond Knurl, highly recommended for all lifting facilities. It is a staple for those squatting and bench pressing correctly, safely and efficiently. The sleeves are Hard Chrome to protect from oxidation and wear due to loading/unloading of plates.
The camber in the Buffalo Bar reduces strain on the bicep and allows increased back rigidity while squatting, which is incredibly important for strength and injury prevention. It also adds an improved ability to generate core stability due to the reduced mobility demands of the shoulders and helps maintain a neutral back squat-rack position.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a buffalo bar / cambered bar and what is it for?
A buffalo bar (also called a cambered bar) is a specialty squat bar with a slight bend (camber) in the shaft. That camber lets your shoulders sit in a more neutral, comfortable position, relieving stress on the shoulders, biceps and back during squats - ideal for lifters with shoulder mobility issues or elbow/bicep pain who still want to squat heavy.
How is the buffalo bar different from a normal squat bar?
A normal straight squat bar forces your shoulders into a fixed, externally-rotated position that can strain the shoulders and biceps. The ATE Buffalo Bar's camber moves your hands forward and down so the shoulders stay neutral, improving back rigidity and core stability while reducing joint stress - all at the same 32 mm thick, no-whip stiffness.
Is the buffalo bar good for people with shoulder or elbow pain?
Yes - that's exactly what it's designed for. By reducing the shoulder external rotation and bicep tendon strain that straight bars demand, the cambered buffalo bar lets lifters with shoulder mobility limitations or elbow/bicep issues keep squatting heavy comfortably and safely.
What are the buffalo bar's specs and capacity?
The ATE Buffalo Bar weighs 21 kg, is 2380 mm (7.8 ft) long with a 32 mm black-oxide shaft, hard-chrome sleeves, a 1.5 mm diamond knurl with centre knurl, no whip, and a 190,000 PSI rating with a 1500 lb (680 kg) max load.
