Bought the 150 pound bag and fill it up to 100 at the start to 120 today... still place to grow. You should buy the size up and fill it to what you can do until you grow into it and use the full capacity when the time is right.
Bought this bar when I built my basement gym back in 2016. Bar is still like new except for the black zinc which is fading away where my shoulders and back sits when squating.
