MB229A Aluminum Revolving Curl Bar

The Body-Solid Tools MB229A Aluminum Curl Bar attaches to any home gym or cable/pulley-based weight machine and helps you perform curls and numerous other exercises. Constructed from high-strength, rust-proof and lightweight 1-¼” aluminum, the MB229A is both durable and lightweight. Knurled grips offer consistent handling even during intense workouts while the angles on the MB229A were designed specifically for peak biceps and triceps contraction.

What is a Cable Attachment?

What cable attachments are

Cable attachments are the handles and bars that clip to a cable machine, functional trainer, or lat/row station to change the exercise — lat bars, triceps ropes, single-D handles, row/close-grip handles, ankle straps, and more. A small set of them turns one cable stack into dozens of movements.

What to look for

A rotating swivel or ball-bearing joint keeps the cable from twisting and lets the handle track your arm; comfortable, durable grips (knurled metal, rubber, or coated nylon) survive heavy use; and a standard carabiner or snap fits most machines. Match the attachment to the exercises you actually train rather than buying a giant kit you won’t use.
