Ingenious! Another great tool in the powerblock toolbox, it fits especially well with my summer workouts at the camper!

Solid build quality but it's just a smidgen too short. If this was a few inches longer would be amazing for all the major compound lifts.

It's a fantastic way to bench, squat, and deadlift while living in tighter spaces or always moving. This, coupled with the Elite USA 90 set, allows me to see meaningful progress in my strength/rehab training in my current phase of life, where getting to the gym is not possible. As a former professional athlete, this has been a great addition to my setup at home.

I really wish that I had read the length on the bar. I bought the straight bar for a squat rack/bench and the fact that it can’t be used with it makes this almost useless.

Overall very great product. Sturdy and well made. Some balance issues where the bar will want to spin in your hands while performing a lift but can be mitigated with a minor grip adjustment. Would recommend this product to anyone looking to get a little more versatility out of their Elite USA package

I would not have purchased this straight bar add-on again if I could go back in time. It's far too narrow, making it almost unusable for bench press. It kind of forces you into a triceps press rather than bench press (note I'm rather short - so imagine if you're on the bigger side...). The balance is also completely inverted - the bar wants to flip over.
