Swiss bar

== English == === Etymology === Apparently in reference to the neutral Swiss foreign policy, as the most observable difference in performing a bench press with this bar is the neutral grip; perhaps reinforced in view of the complexity of a Swiss Army knife or even the stereotypic holes in Swiss cheese. === Pronunciation === (rhotic) IPA(key): [swɪs bɑɹ] (non-rhotic) IPA(key): [swɪs bɑː] === Noun === Swiss bar (plural Swiss bars) A bar to lift weight plates upon including additional vertically aligned handles. Synonyms: football bar, multi-grip bar, neutral grip bar
