“I travel for the summer and the Pro Series Straight bar paired to mt Dumbells give me a fuller range of exercises to do. The quality of my Powerblock equipment is unparalleled!!!”
“Nice and sturdy. Just like the knurled handles, the knurling was ultra crisp at first, borderline painful. I had to use the bar for a bout a month to break it in. no complaints about that, just a heads up that it takes a while for the knurling to deburr. This bar is great for dealifts. It's wide enough for bench press (I'm 5'10") but not if you do the wide grip where you try to get a 90° angle with your elbows. If you're holding it with an overhand grip like for shulder shrugs, it does rotates forward a bit becauuse of the non-circular shape of the weights, but it's still doable. This only starts to happen around 145 pounds for me. It doesn't do that with mixed grip though. Overal it's high quality and is a nice addition for apartment workouts.”
