Great bar for the price. Works great for that everyday general lifts.

This was the first bar that I bought brand new. I bought it in 2020 and it’s still in great shape. In hindsight it’s not the first bar I would buy if I were starting over, but it was affordable and performed well. And back then I wasn’t training out of my home gym 100% of the time. If you’re thinking about buying one, here are a few things to consider - it’s an Olympic style bar so it doesn’t have center knurling (not ideal for squats) and its static capacity is 700lbs. If you’re just starting out I wouldn’t choose this as a primary bar unless you are mainly going to be performing Olympic lifts, and even then you’d probe better off getting something with center knurling for your squat accessories.
