my gym's just bought new bars. pic related. is it a good bar?
>>36855902
What makes a "good" bar? It's standard weight and you can lift heavy things and put them down with it, what's the difference?
My old gym had these. I didn't care for them at the time because I was used to a shittier bar that bent a lot. It felt more comfortable to squat with so I avoided their newer bars.
After I built my home gym, i bought the ohio powerbar and im coming to like the more aggresive knurling and lack whip even at high weights.
What is the reason behind center knurling? Squats?
Changed gym and the new one have eleiko bars. Cool but squating heavy hurts.
>>36855902
>caring about what brand your bar is
kill yourself, all that matter is that it weighs 20kg and you can attach weights on both sides lel.
>inb4 muhhhh eleiko

The Tsunami Barbe is the only acceptable barbell
>>36855902
It's good enough for most purposes.
Only thing I don't like about the Rogue 2.0 is that it uses "composite" bushings. The bushings on some of their other bars (ohio) are higher in quality.
>>36856026
>trappy-chan
you don't even lift

>>36856044
I do though
>>36856026
I bet you make that bar bend several times a week trappy, you sure know your shit
>>36856099
Bushings have nothing to do with bending of a bar though.

>>36855985
Say goodbye to all your gains senpai. You cannot make gains with a bar that weighs any less than 20 kg. Sry bru
Why do people think any barbell is good lmao my gym has a barbell that literally has cheese graters for grip, worst shit I've ever had to pick up in my life, can't go above 80kg Deadlift without literal cuts on my hand
>>36856153
This, our bodies evolutionarily got used to 20 kg barbells. Any kg lower than that automatically takes away your gains, since you were programmed to do more.
>>36855902
Any bar is a "good bar" for a DYEL faggot like you OP.
>>36855902
It's not bad, but I prefer bars with the center knurl.
>>36855957

anyways OP I have the rogue Olympic bar, its pretty nice, knurling isn't as aggressive as Eleiko but a bit more bite than DHS. Bearings are nice as hell too. Feels like an IWF bar without the cert. Not really a fan of the 2.0 bar, but its a step up from the irongrip/gpindus/etc. bullshit in most commercial gyms.

my gym recently got new bars too, we got ones that look exactly like these with the black knurling shafts aswell.
these bars are alot thinner then the regular bars we have. i really like them for benching, theyre good if u have somewhat smaller hands.the knurling is alot less 'aggrasive' than youd expect from a new bar...other than that..its a barbell like any other.
>>36855902
I hate HATE the rogue bar it's so fucking whippy. Squatting over 365 lbs is a real pain in the ass.

There's a fucking janitor on /pol/ that will block you if you say racist shit. That same janitor also had me b& for 30 days for ban evasion.
I'm kinda intrigued by dual purpose bars with Olympic and powerlifting marks (such as the Rouge bar). Are they generally good or it that gimmicky bullshit?
I got to mess around with a Texas power bar a while ago and really liked it, the aggressive knurl was great. On a scale of 1 to suck, can Only lifts be done with a power bar? At what weight would I even notice a difference?
>>36855957
>kill yourself, all that matter is that it weighs 20kg and you can attach weights on both sides lel.
Yeah if you're a ghetto nigger or something. If you're an olyfag, powerlifter or literally anyone who lifts seriously you should get a proper bar.

Dual marks are always good. Even for weightlifting only, really. For shorter people, the PL mark is great for grip width.
And it's not like dual marks make the bar any worse at all.
>can Only lifts be done with a power bar? At what weight would I even notice a difference?
Yes, definitely. If the PL bar is high quality, the only noticeable different is less whip (they have a thicker diameter).
If the bar has bushings instead of bearings, just keep it oiled from time to time and the spin will be great.

How have you ever used a Rogue bar if you're in a different continent?
Why does your experience on barbells matter if you can't lift enough to reap any benefits of one over another?

>>36855902
We used these at a powermeet last weekend. Everyone agreed that it gripped like a motherfucker during deadlift. It just felt good to grip. Squats and bench were negligible. I like them. That said, I'm normally used to my gyms worn out bars
>>36857123
Do you have any videos on how to jerk besides the ones from klokov? Love the guy but I can't deal with his broken English
>>36857113
The benefits of rotation are relative to the RPE, not to the absolute amount of weight put on the bar.
I use women's bars for the classics, which are way thinner and thus have a lot more whip with lighter weights.
Whip and rotation aren't the only benefits of a good barbell.
Also, good barbells are important for my trainees and the other guys in the gym.
Etc etc etc
>>36855902
I prefer center knurling. I use it as a reference when squatting to make sure the bar is centered, even though it rubs my traps raw
>>36857165
I don't have any links with me right now, but I'm sure it's easy to find on youtube.
You can also check Everett's book.
>>36855902
>black zinc shaft
I honestly prefer a bare steel bar. No chrome, no coatings. Nothing feels as nice as bare, naked steel.

I don't need the money, and it's not worth the amount of effort and time I'd have to put into it.
I transitioned way before starting training.
Yes, HRT makes things a lot harder.
But such is life. I'm not really competitive so I play with the cards I've been dealt and just have fun with it.

impressive bw weight ratio, but hes right tho you cant feel the difference between barbells with that low weights.
like klokov said "when i lift, bar is wobbly, but when you lift, bar isnt wobbly, because it only gets wobbly after 200kg"

The center knurling is a holdover from old time-y lifts like one arm snatches. Not because it does anything to secure the bar in a front rack.
>>36858198
No. I'ce seen you somewhere. The hair, the body, the nose, the eyes they all add up and it's pissing me off because it's right beyond my reach of thought

>>36858227
It does help a bit with the back squat. But yeah not really the most important thing for a front rack.
>>36858227
I like the center knurling because visually it helps me with alignment. Like making sure I'm in the center of the bar on squats and bench.
>>36858275
You look quite passable but without seeing your face I can't say for sure

Why does the Ohio powerbar have longer sleeves than the Ohio deadlift bar? Serious question.
>>36855932
>What makes a "good" bar?
If the knurling is good.
If it spins well. This has a lot of effect on olympic lifts.
If it has some whip/springiness
If it lasts a long time
If the gaps in the knurling are at standard positions (kind of a cherry on top but whatever)
>>36858537
Maybe it has something to do with how xbox hueg the rogue cheapo bumper plates are. This is only 365. You can barely fit 4 plates on there.

...and hopefully not a bank-breaker.
The Chan bar seems like it might be good, but the "reduced" knurled area bugs me. Also, the faddish Rouge/CrossFit/celeb connection... But that's just because I'm a snotty lifter hipster.
Can it be done?
>>36858537
Probably because they expect you to use metal plates for deadlifts. Like pic.

OP, my campus rec center has a few of these. They're among the better barbells, though I'd prefer center knurling. Still, they're not too thick and the knurling isn't half-assed, which is all I care about
There are a couple barbells there (don't know the brand) that are way too thick. I won't use them, and will let someone else use a rack/bench I'm waiting for one to open and it has one of those shit barbells
