60" Olympic Barbell Reviews

4.9 Rating 123 Reviews

The 60" Olympic Barbell is an excellent piece of equipment for both men and women who want to focus on bicep curls, deadlifts, back squats, overhead presses, lunges, or power cleans. This 25 LB bar is 5 FT long with a 28mm grip shaft and 50mm Olympic-sized weight sleeves that support a weight capacity of up to 500 LB. The bar is fully constructed from high-quality steel, with the shaft providing a tensile strength consistency of 110,000 PSI. The bar features a medium diamond textured knurling on either end and is great for training at the gym or in your own home.NOTE: This barbell provides a 36.5" sleeve-to-sleeve length and will NOT rack on most standard power racks. Please measure the width of your rack before purchase if you intend to use it in conjunction with your rack.

“This is flat out the best deal for a stubby bar. It is much easier to balance for certain lifts than a regular 7ft Olympic bar. I have no complaints about the item itself, the sleeves rotate smoothly. My only complaint was the packaging. . . .of which there was none. I was somewhat surprised to come home from work and see the bar sitting on my porch, no cardboard tube, no plastic wrap, nothing. Just a shipping label taped onto one of the sleeves. The bar was not damaged or anything, but I did indeed expect more by way of shipping. Overall, I would completely recommend getting this bar if you are wanting to get a stubby bar. It has clips in the ends of the sleeves, not the hex head bolt. I put it to the test last night and in felt great on my biceps!!”

“I'm not sure what the other reviewer was taking about when he said, "extend past the bushing?" My bar didn't have this. It's a very very good bar for the price. Actually has snap ends! I would recommend anyone by it that wants a short bar. Sleeves rotate good enough, finish is good, nurl is very good. Definitely better then the cheapies that cost more at Dicks or other sporting goods store. If they don't have them in stock it may take a while to get; but, you'll get it. Wait for a promo and buy a couple!”

“I like this bar being compact & seems well built, however the distance between the knurling seems to be a lot wider than standard bars and also goes past the edge of the bushing in the collars which adds drag to collar rotation. I'm no expert by any means & I understand this is an economy bar but if I had to change anything on this bar it would be to make the distance between the knurl closer to the specs of a traditional Olympic bar & not let it extend past the bushing. I would still recommend this bar to anyone looking for an inexpensive compact training bar.”
