http://www.fittwarehouse.com The Trap Bar is specifically designed to allow a lifter to stand inside of it. This unique configuration moves the weights closer to the body, and as a result, improves balance and eliminates interference with the torso and thighs.
This one, simple circumstance expands the range of muscle contraction and pays big dividends by way of greater muscular development. It's also important to know that moving the weight resistance closer in reduces strain on the lower back.
More specifically, because the Trap Bar allows a lifter to maintain a more upright posture, less shearing force is exerted on the spine. Simply put, a Shrug Bar allows high intensity workouts with less risk of painful injury.
Trap Bar Benefits: The lifter assumes a more upright position when starting a lift. The knees don't interfere with the bar. The weight moves directly upward instead of sideways. The lifter has better control of the bar The weight moves in line with the ankles improving leverage. Lower back stress is reduced. Shearing force on spine and knees is reduced. It's easier to maintain good form Elbow and wrist-joint strain is reduced by eliminating opposite grips. Standing shrugs yield improved trapezius development because the bar never contacts the thighs interfering with range of motion.
