The Cambered bar is the perfect bar for adding variety to your squats. It’s shape forces you to stay tighter in the bottom position of a squat more so than you would with a regular barbell as the center of gravity is shifted slightly forward and becomes unstable if you swing back or forward on the way up.

Football bar, providing the facility to work with a neutral grip, ideal for those with shoulder problems, and anyone looking to add some variety into their training.
The angled handles alter how the shoulder joint functions during the press movement, and results in a more neutral grip, which is designed to be easier on the shoulder joint. Their 50 mm diameter eases strain on the wrists as well.

This is one of our most popular bars and rightly so. It is a dedicated Weightlifting bar with impressive specs at a fraction of the price of branded bars.
The Sprung steel construction of the shaft means that it can handle moderate loads and will revert to its original shape once the tension has been released. This is ideal for a Weightlifting bar as the last thing you want after a big PB is to be left with a bent bar. It also gives the bar a good deal of flex and quite a lively feel.
Being a weightlifting bar it has free spinning sleeves and light knurling.

Clean/jerk and Snatch: 150 kgFor higher lifts we recommend more specialised barbells, such as Texas barbell for squats and deadlifts, or Pendlay barbells or Elite barbells for weightlifting.
Needle bearings win over ball bearings because they are capable of handling larger loads without squashing or deforming. Instead of balls there are cylindrical rollers around the bearing. Compared to the brass bushings these bearings will give you a more free spinning sleeve on your bar.
