A universal device for working out all muscle groups. Allows you to do both basic exercises with free weights and isolated exercises for local muscle groups. The length is 180 centimeters, and the diameter is 25-30 mm, which is enough for a comfortable grip. The bar's own weight is 10 kilograms, which means that it alone is already a very good tool for working out the biceps, triceps, shoulders, and traps.

The major aspects for choosing a barbell for training

Barbell bar length:

  • If you choose barbells set for performing isolated exercises for biceps, triceps, you should select compact barbells, with a length of the bar that does not exceed 120 centimeters.
  • If the training of back muscles is added to the exercises, as well as in the case when the barbell is selected for a teenager, you should stop your choice on models with 150 centimeters bar length.
  • In the case when it is planned to work out all the muscles and perform not only isolated but also basic exercises, there is no alternative to the classic 180 cm bar.

Weight plates are special plates that allow you to gain the necessary weight on the bar. When choosing a set of plates, you should take into account your own power indicators, the optimal set is almost always weighing from 2.5 to 25 kilograms, and each weight plate should be a pair.

Fasteners (locks) are special devices designed to fix the plates on the bar and prevent them from falling and moving along the bar during exercise. The design of the locks can be spring or mechanical. In the first type, the weight plates are fixed using a special spring clip, in the second they are pressed with a mechanical lock of the rotary structure.
