Barbells are an essential piece of gym equipment for anyone who is into strength training, whether you're a beginner or an experienced lifter. However, when it comes to choosing the right barbell for your needs, there are many factors to consider, like, whether to go with a 7ft or 6ft barbell, or choosing between a home barbell and a commercial barbell.

Any women’s barbell is a shorter, lighter version of the men’s Olympic multi-purpose bar. The knurling pattern and shaft length generally remain the same. Women’s Olympic bars do not have center knurling. While a squat bar is typically used for squatting, it is possible to use the bar for the bench or deadlift. While we at ISF have never actually witnessed the ISF Squat Bar being used for deadlift, we do know several athletes who sometimes bench with the bar. In benching with the squat bar, the 32mm barbell could potentially be used as a fat grip to better train the forearms, or to simply switch up the training. Deadlift: These bars are similar to power bars, but have thinner shafts, no center knurling, and are slightly longer than normal power bars. The hex bar is another deadlift-specific bar in the shape of a hexagonal cage that aids with range of motion and form. Ring markings: On the shaft are two smooth markings that indicate official positions for certain lifts. These will be 810mm apart. This is not important for basic lifting Some other exercises that can be performed with a squat bar include lunges, step-ups, and Bulgarian split squats.

A standard barbell is the smallest and least practical barbell on the list. You will not find a standard barbell in any commercial gym. These are mainly used for beginner home gyms. Standard Barbell Dimensions: When you start lifting 25kg dumbbells, individual muscles become engaged. The weights feel heavier and you thereby increase your endurance. We'll take a closer look at the differences between these two types of barbells to help you make an informed decision. What is a Barbell? The IWF (International Weightlifting Federation) specifies the bar must be 28mm for men & 25mm for women & youth, unlike the IPF (International Powerlifting Federation) only specifies the bar must be within 28-29mm grip diameter. Hence our Olympic bars comes with 28mm diameter for men & 25mm barbell for women while Power bars generally come with 29mm diameter, since practically 29mm is more convenient & efficient grip within 28-29mm for bench & squat.

Squatting is a movement that requires a longer and more rigid than normal barbell. Olympic bars are suitable for squatting, but new bars have emerged that are more suitable for the squat. This article will specifically define the straight barbell and its functions. Then we’ll discuss the various types of straight barbells and all their applications (there's a barbell weight & size comparison chart at the end).We'll take a closer look at the differences between these two types of barbells to help you make an informed decision. The main difference between commercial and home use barbells lies in their design, durability, and price. The barbell, frankly, is arguably the most versatile and valuable piece of exercise equipment, and should be suitable for most exercises and populations. As such, it's important for lifters to know as much as possible about it. Modern Barbells Barbells are a very popular form of weight training equipment. Professional bodybuilders to fitness enthusiasts in gyms, fitness classes and at home use barbells with weight plates to support their strength training goals, whether that be to build muscle or generally tone. Used with weight plates, barbells are highly effective in building your strength as they require you to utilise your stabilising muscles to lift the weights, rather than rely on weight machines, which can also be restrictive. You have to use your own power. Training with barbells also provides you with more natural movement so you can perform a wider range of exercises. Additionally, barbells are far more space efficient than weight machines, making them very handy for using at home. Standard Barbells

Sometimes referred to as hand weights, dumbbells have a weight plate attached at each end of a dumbbell bar. Great for the strength trainer who is short on space, dumbbells help you build overall muscular strength and can be used for a huge range of exercises to target different muscle groups. Available as Fixed Weight Dumbbells, Adjustable Selectorised Dumbbells and Interchangeable Dumbbell Sets, there’s a dumbbell type for any lifter. Standard weights are smaller in comparison to Olympic weights and are recommended for the novice/beginner. Standard weights have a 1" diameter hole in the centre of the weight plate. Standard weight plates come in the following sizes: 0.5kg, 1.25kg, 2.5kg, 5kg, 10kg, 15kg, 20kg 25kg. A standard barbell maximum weight is around 120kg. Once you are lifting near this limit, you will need to consider Olympic weights. Olympic Weights Knurling: The knurling is the engraved part of the shaft that provides a rough surface to enhance grip. The pattern and dimensions of the knurling will vary across barbells (i.e. some will have knurling at the center of the handle, some will not). Olympic weights are larger than standard weights and have a 2" diameter hole in the centre of the weight plate. Olympic weight plates come in the following sizes: 1.25kg, 2.5kg, 5kg, 10kg, 15kg, 20kg, 25kg 50kg. Olympic weights are better suited for intermediate/advanced strength trainers who are lifting heavier weights than the novice/beginner lifter. Olympic barbells are also stronger than standard barbells with a maximum weight load up to 750kg! Cast Iron Weights A 7ft barbell, also known as an Olympic barbell, is the standard size for barbells used in weightlifting competitions. It is typically made from steel or another durable metal and is 2.2 meters long and weighs 20kg. The sleeves on each end are 16.5 inches in length, which provides enough space to hold several weight plates.Lifetime Warranty: A long warranty period is offered from our end owing to the confidence we build our products with. THE SQUAT BAR OF 25 kg comes with a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects and a lifetime warranty against bending. A barbell is a straight metal bar designed to support compound movements with heavy weighted plates (deadlift, squat, OHP, bench press, snatches, cleans, etc.). Since some of these are specialized, you’re not likely to find them all at your local big-box gym. Most gyms will have multipurpose, Olympic and power bars (or just multipurpose barbells exclusively). That said, most will have safety bars and hex bars. Very few, and typically only private or specialty gyms, will have women's, deadlifting and squat bars - the latter are specialized bars that are expensive and require a certain skill to use. A curved barbell, more commonly known as a curl bar, is traditionally used for exercises that work smaller muscle groups such as your biceps and triceps. Dumbbell sets are also perfect for working these smaller muscles. A straight barbell, on the other hand, is best for larger muscles like the chest and legs. BARBELLS FOR SALE
