LIONSCOOL 7FT Olympic Barbell for Weightlifting, Power Lifting, 2 Inch Strength Training Bar for Squats, Deadlifts, Presses, Rows, Curls - 700lbs/1000lbs/1500lbs Capacity

I got this bar over Black Friday and am amazed at its quality.The finish is perfect with good spin and even costing. The packaging was rock solid and ensured the bar wasn't damaged during shipping.4 months later, and it hasn't shown a single scratch from heavy use in my rack and doing dead lifts and power cleans.To start, the most I have put on this is 270 pounds of plates, so nowhere near the 1500 rated limit. The bar had no bend at all and took repeated drops with that weight.The knurl is a great depth for me. It provides the perfect feel without cutting up my hands. I have worked with it with gloves and bare handed and love it. My only complaint? Lots of plastic shavings from the bar hitting my j-cups, but any good bar is going to do that. Be sure to clean up those shavings if you have pets or small toddlers.I really feel like this can be the one bar to last you a life time. It can take a beating, has a great finish to protect the metal, and the perfect 28.5mm shaft size Rogue made so popular.Even without BF savings, I would highly recommend.

The media could not be loaded. I’ve been using the LIONSCOOL 7FT Olympic Barbell for a few months now, and I’m genuinely impressed. The sleek black finish gives it a clean, professional look, and the build quality feels top-notch. Whether I’m squatting, deadlifting, or doing presses, the bar holds up great under heavy weight (I got the 1000lbs version). It has a nice grip, spins well, and feels balanced during lifts.I didn’t experience any issues; no bending, no slipping, and no rough edges. For the price, it’s a fantastic value and definitely a step up from cheaper alternatives. Highly recommend for any home gym or serious lifter looking for a reliable bar.

Been using it for a few days only but love it! Solid bar. Well made with collars that spin freely which is vital for your lifts. Gold ring on the inside of collar adds a nice touch to finish appeal. High quality and would recommend!

Very good quality love the color and appearance

The packing was one of the best I have ever received for a barbell. The box was heavily taped and inside was a hard cardboard tube with staples holding the plastic end caps and tape around the edges to be sure the barbell couldn't slide out on its own. Inside the cardboard was a plastic bag to further prevent scratches. Also inside the box was a workout poster, a spec sheet about the barbell and instructions on how to properly care for the barbell and it indicates it has a lifetime warranty.The bar has a nice spin and an even medium knurl just as you would expect from a more expensive barbell. I do question if it really a 28.5MM diameter like it states. When comparing it to my 28.5MM (The Beast, by CAP Barbell) and my 28MM cerakote barbell from Elevens I feel like this is actually 28MM. Even if it is, it is still a nice bar and I will be keeping it for squats and deadlifts because its easier for me to firmly hold onto then my 29MM Titan Powerbar since I have smaller hands.

I've used this for bench and deadlift. There's no center knurl so i dont squat with it. I mainly purchased this for deadlifts. There's a decent amount whip to this bar. I have the 1000lb rated bar and I've had 500lbs on it and it flexes nicely. Knurl is decent, holds nicely for mixed or hook grip. Not sure how hard the knurl is, but for home use I'd expect it to last at least a few years.The sleeves are super smooth, some may like this, but im not a fan. Plates side on easily but also slide off very easily, so collars/clips are neccessary for every lift.Overall a very well priced "deadlift bar" for home use. Solid buy in my opinion. If you're looking for commercial quality, go texas or rogue.

Great barbell, have had for close to two years now and it is still smooth as when I bought it, even though I keep it outside where it is exposed to certain things like dust, humidity, water and etc. there is no type of bowing or sway to this bar whatsoever ever. I would highly recommend if you are looking to build your own home gym.

Yes, the title is a dad joke. Well built. Solid unit for such a great value. Handles the weight of multiple plates well! Just be prepared for some scratching due to the color being black and metal on metal with reracks. Purely cosmetic. Knurling is great.
