The Prodigy Spotter Arms Pair by Prime Fitness USA features an effective and simple solution for performing safe Olympic-style lifts. The outside arms measure 34" and the inside arms measure 24", allowing for a larger range of motion when unracking or racking weights.

This allows athletes to customize the barbell positions and use different Olympic Bar sizes. The spotter arms have a semi-gloss black powder coat finish that looks great and easily holds chalk. The UHMW plastic wear guards protect knurling and prolong the barbell’s life. The spotters have large grip handles for easy handling and transport, as well as polyethylene feet to avoid accidental slippage during lifts. The product is backed by Prime Fitness USA’s ten-year service warranty, which ensures members can get the most out of their investment.
