Our precision Needle Bearing is substantially larger, stronger and higher load rated than conventional bearings found in cheaper bars. Needle Bearings allow the bar sleeve spin unrestricted at all loads and have a smooth feel with no play up and down on the bar shaft.

Barbell and Weight bars

The better trap bars will have two heights for grip – essentially one for shrugs and one for deadlifts. You’ll also want a weight rating high enough to cover your heaviest lifts. All-purpose barbell At a passing glance, Olympic barbells and powerlifting barbells can look largely similar to the standard barbells we've mentioned above. However, Olympic barbells are around seven foot in length and powerlifting barbells feature a slightly short length at five to six feet, with a higher tensile rating for heavier lifts. Similarly, there will typically be more knurling to help you shift tin more safely during your barbell workout. Trap Bars and Hex Barbells Olympic barbells are very similar to standard bars, except that the sleeve diameter is larger. With a sleeve diameter of two inches, Olympic bars can hold more weight than the thinner one inch sleeve of a standard barbell. The sleeves on an Olympic bar are also designed to freely rotate, enabling you to lift heavier weights when performing weightlifting exercises. These are not your average Olympic barbell or plates. We have painstakingly sourced the absolute pinnacle of quality and finish. Serious about lifting? Then you won’t be disappointed.

Enter the mid-range, all-purpose barbell. They’re for anyone who’s focused on building muscle and perfecting form. A tensile rating of around 175KPI will suit, and it’s worth aiming for a 28.5mm diameter which will support a decent amount of flex but also allow for your powerlifting to be uninhibited. Please ring JLL Fitness if you receive your item in a damaged condition sowe can arrange for replacement parts or equipment to be sent to you.When thinking about the level of grip you want on a barbell, you’re going to need to look at the knurling used. Knurling refers to the pattern used on the area you place your hands, determining how much grip you have. The type of knurling can give you a better indication of the type of movements the barbell is best suited for and give you a sense of how comfortable it’s going to be.
