If you've been looking into buying an Earthquake bar but are turned off by the $300 price, here's a cheaper alternative that can give you a similar stimulation.

What is an Earthquake Bar?
It's a lightweight barbell weighing in at 6lbs designed to hang weights on via resistance bands.

The resistance bands stretch and contract as you move through your bench press (or overhead press, or squat) movements which cause instability in the bar by pulling and pushing constantly in different directions.

The bar wants to shake and oscillate (that’s the earthquake part) as you lift. Your shoulders will have to work overtime to stabilize the load.

The oscillations of the bar cause pertubations (instability movements) in the shoulder which require all the tiny stabilizer muscles to kick in.

Types of Earthquake Bars

Bamboo Bar: The original instability bar with slits on the sleeves to insert resistance bands.

Earthquake Bar: Made of composite resins with solid ash loading sleeves and a maximum loading capacity of 300 lbs. 80" in length. You can do single or multiple band set ups.

E-Maxx Bar: 6.5" longer than the Earthquake bar , the E-Maxx bar allows more band loading capacity for heavier lifts and maximum kinetic energy

Earthquake Bar Alternative
=====

An alternative to the Earthquake bar for the upper body is a heavy duty resistance bands.

Place the band on J-cups and do chaos push ups to mimic a bench press.

To mimic a shoulder press do pike pushs up on the band.

An alternative for the lower body is a wobble board.

The wobble board is unstable and it gets harder as you squat down on it.
