Allright dude...based on your review, and a bunch of other research, I just bought a Rogue limited edition "Black Friday" Ohio Bar with the Cerakote finish. It has identical specs as the Rogue Bar 2.0, plus the Cerakote finish...which was an extra $60, but I think it will be worth it to keep the shaft looking nice over time. The black zinc on the 2.0 seems pretty good, but I really wanna give the cerakote a try. Thanks for making this video. very informative. BTW, most of my stuff is Titan (with no complaints), but I'm following your advice and investing in a quality barbell!!

I’ve been using Xtraining barbells and their associated plates and have had no problems. I do compete, I’ve used the Rouge base models up to the Eleiko competition bars. The best barbell for price, quality, and overall versatility is the Xtraining competition bar. You can get it around $230 (minus shipping), our gym has switched to these bars, and now a year and a half later these bars are holding up.

i have been using a CAP barbell for a few years. abused it to the max, left it outside in the rain and elements and it still gets the job done. it got rusty and it doesn't even spin anymore but i'm not getting rid of it. the only thing i don't like is the knurling in the center, sometimes when doing cleans or power cleans it scratches my lower neck. Also, just purchased a rogue bar 2.0... so excited !!! so, after some research i figured it was the best barbell to get and you seem to agree. thanks for the video

Yes and no. If you're doing clean and jerks you would want a bar without a center knurl so the bar doesn't dig into your neck area.

@Gold-oj8do 5 жыл бұрын

pingufromindia Thank you for the question. When you do a clean, (where you bring the bar to the chest, neck, and shoulder area) before driving it up over head. That is when the middle of the bar can come in contact with the neck area. Or just below the neck area. That is why they manufacture bars with and without a center knurling.

@Gold-oj8do 5 жыл бұрын

pingufromindia Also, if you're doing front squats a center knurl is not usually the best. Most of the big Olympic lifters use a bar without a center knurl for the reasons stated above.

@Gold-oj8do 5 жыл бұрын

@pingufromindia Hi bud. If you're main lifts are dead lifts, squats and bench presses I would probably go with a center knurl. I use and own the Original Texas Power bar. Sharp knurl with a center knurl. I think that would serve you well. I also own a Rouge Bar without a center knurl. Very nice bar. In fact I just got off the phone with Rouge a couple of minutes ago and I want to buy their Freedom Bar. It's on back order. Have you seen that bar? It's sweet. If you go with the Texas Power bar make sure you get the original manufactured by Buddy Caps. If you just get one bar you can always add a second one later. The Rouge Freedom bar does not have a center knurl. Check their web site at Rouge Fitness. Lot of cool stuff there.

Hey Coop, quick question, I'm working on setting up a home gym due to the virus going on right now and I don't know what barbell I should get. The one I've trained with consistently was a standard length barbell that felt very high in whip, I was looking at the Vulcan 4.0 Olympic bar and the Lynx Hybrid Bearing 3.0. I'm a football player and cleans are a large part of my regiment, but I also squat and bench a lot too, would the spin on the vulcan or lynx be too much? Im sorry for the load of info, im brand new in the home gym scene. Thanks -Alex

@maxxxmodelz4061 5 жыл бұрын

What bar is the one hanging on the wall behind you to the far left, facing the viewer? That would be the one on your far right in the video. The one with the knurls in the middle. That's the one I currently have, and I'm just curious to the quality of that bar in your opinion. I've had that bar for almost 20 years now, and it held up very well under some very heavy useage. It only got a little corroded along the knurled grips where I bench the most and did some standing barbell curling for many years. It doesn't have a lot of spin on the ends so it's great for benching and is a very stiff bar. It's great for bench and squat. Terrible for deadlift.

@ah7027 6 жыл бұрын

I personally train for Olympic lifting and typically train with eleiko bars and plates with a guy whos training me ( all different ones ranging from training to competition bars). that being said I personally bought the rep fitness gladiator bar and love it. compared to the other oly bars from rogue at the same price the spin is much better. I think the first rogue barbell to match the spin is like double the price. I don't do bench very often but for squats, deads, clean and jerks and snatches ive loved this bar.

I think the Ohio power bar is the best power bar even vs texas power bar, Eleiko power bars, and even vs specialty bars like iron wolfe bench bar ( when it comes to benching with OPB). When it comes to WEIGHTLIFTING barbells, the pendlays are super good, especially with pendlay bumpers, they fit so well, pendlay bumper plates fit amazing on all barbells though.

Hard to beat at price point the rogue Ohio ipf approved bar ... but the eleiko still beats it overall if price weren't an issue... Texas power bars imo aren't very good knurling to aggressive and to flexy if you're going to have to lift on platform on an eleiko or titex or similar ... titex is a good bar of you're in the States and can get hold of one they're close to an eleiko at less cash ... I've got an eleiko and I use a SS power bar (205k psi) for squats and bench in rack to keep knurling pristine on it ... it's just the business for ipf lifters

@frustrateduser666 6 жыл бұрын

I own a few Texas Power bars and picked up Rogues Ohio barbell last year. The Ohio barbell will do the job for the average person. My plan was to replace all our Texas power bars with the Ohio because they are cheaper and Rogue has great turn around time. I notice when I get up 400 plus on the bench press the Ohio bends strange and it feels like it’s gonna roll out of my hands. I also notice when deadlifting at 600 or higher something just feels off like it is rolling forward and weights tend to feel more difficult to pull. We pull with Texas deadlift bars at our gym as well but sometimes I want less aggressive knurling and a 28.5 diameter to work grip. I’ve powerlifting for 16 years (lifting 24) so I’m pretty picky with my barbells and notice slight differences other might not. We do like the Rogue Echo weightlifting barbells over the Pendlay weightlifting barbell. I didn’t see that happening but if the kids have a choice of weightlifting bars for clean max outs they do tend to choose the Rogue barbell. Most will clean between 185 to 225 pound range with a few hitting 275 pounds. Just thought I’d share my opinion.

Is the spin that big of a deal on a bench press? The reason I'm asking is that I'm putting together a home gym, and I really prefer 28MM barbells over 29MM variants for grip purposes. However, all good 28MM barbells are Olympic, meaning they have high spin. Now I know that the bar recommended here is 28.5MM, however unfortunately I can't really try it out anywhere, and I really don't want to go through the hassle of shipping it back. Hence, does a good Rogue or Eleiko Olympic barbell really unsettle you that much or cause wrist stability issues?

Our bars in high school powerlifting where old rusty, skinny and the grip was so aggressive that if you dropped it, it would take your skin with it.

I picked up a 20kg, 1500 lb bar from Merax because I it was a lot cheaper than anything else I found in a rush (approx $150 if you catch it as price seems to fluctuate) and I planned on beating on it with deadlifts, rack pulls etc. Its 28mm in diameter and it works grerat for those exercises. It has a higher tensile than a lot of bars 190k if memory serves me, and a lifetime warranty against bending. I have beat it pretty good and it isn't showing any signs of stress. I wish they made one with a 30 or even 32 mm diameter. For the money I think this bar would compete against anything I saw on this video. I have no idea where it was made and my luck it was probably made overseas but it is a great bar. I have a Capps power bar in my arsenal as well now and I paid about $300 for it. Its a great bar but unless I am going to be pulling 1500 lb deadlifts I think I wasted my money on it and the Merax performs at half the price . Grab one of these Mr. Reviewer and try to break it.

Texas Power Bar missed but gets my vote. For in rack training, the size of the sleeve spacer mattered to me. Most rogue BB are half of the size of the Texas Power Bar and your plates may clank against the rack sides.

I just received a red cerakote bar from Solid Bar Fitness. Now, if the bumper plates would show up I could actually see how good the bar is going to be. The wait continues.

I picked up an X-Mark VooDoo bar, and I like it quite a bit. Got it new on a classified listing for $150. Great buy for me.

Any luck on the Rogue Echo 2.0? Its priced at 205 on the site and was just curious if anybody has tried it and compared it to these others mentioned.

Great video!... What is your opinion about the "XMark Lumberjack" bar?

Is that your opinion on XMark altogether? Or is the VooDoo or Missouri Mule any better?

Hey Coop, I just bought the Rogue Bar 2.0 based on your excellent review. After I received it I noticed a lot of of small machined "rings" along the sleeve. It creates a lot of friction when I put my Eleiko bumper plates on and off and when I touch it with my finger I see metal particles. I contacted Rogue and they said with metal to metal that's normal. I've only ever seen smooth sleeves on all the bars on base and at the commercial gyms.. is this normal?

I am sorry he never saw this. I am curious too. Thanks for the heads up.

Coop: "Everybody has their favorite barbell." Me: Feeling like a little kid who just wants to learn what I need to buy that's good while spending the least amount of money possible. Thanks for the video!
