Barbells

Power bars suit regular squat, bench and deadlift work. Weightlifting bars and mixed-use bars differ in shaft, knurl and sleeve design. Curl and trap bars add separate exercises to that basic setup.

01

Centre knurl and shaft diameter change how the bar handles.

02

Thick plates use more of the available sleeve length.

03

A curl bar or compact specialty bar may not span a rack.
