The bar bell having a plurality of differently oriented hand grips integrated therein is composed of two generally parallel members defining a horizontal axis and in between a plurality of hand grips are provided at varying angles along a vertical axis. The hand grips can be used to conduct weight-lifting exercises involving multiple symmetrical and asymmetrical gripping patterns thereby forming different weight-lifting techniques and exercises. The two generally parallel members include protruding members extending from the respective distal end on which weights may be added and locked in place via a screw lock. The two generally parallel members may include a track therein so as to enable movement of the hand grips along the horizontal axis.
