“The bar is excellent for any amateur weight lifter, Crossfitter or simply someone looking to do some barbell work. The knurling is great for the grip, limiting the amount of slippage during a session with quick movements. The yield strength is very. This was clear when the full weight set was deadlifted, and the back plates stayed on the floor for a second longer before the plates came off the floor. The bar had a minimal bend to it in this instance. The sleeve allows a nice roll in the bar, which provides comfort in cleans and back squats. My personal favorite however, is the whip. Whether it be Clean and Jerks, Snatches, or Squat Clean, this bar is easy to catch and even easier to put over head. The 28.5 mm mixed use Olympic bar has a smooth finish, making it aesthetically pleasing, almost impossible to scratch and easy on any beginners hands. The plates are durable, with a medium amount of bounce. The bar does tend to jump a little if dropped from over 6 ft, but the plates usually subside and stay on the ground within their 3rd bounce. My one critique of the bar, is the sleeve appears to have rifling on it, and this sometimes causes difficulty removing plates. However, this also limits the amount of movement the plates make if you chose not to place the clamps on. All in all, the 28.5mm mixed use bar with the 325lbs set is an excellent choice to start off your garage gym. It can easily be stored in a stack in the corner, unlikely to get dinged because of it's tough finish. The grip is easy on the hands of anyone joining the fitness community, and it has all the best parts of an olympic and powerlifting bar. For $738, this is fantastic addition to your gym and totally worth the investment.”
