I donated an Ohio Power Bar to my local YMCA as the regular barbells were low quality and bowing badly. People thank me all the time and say it is their favorite bar. Amazing quality for a great price.

Well, ya'll answered my question on which bar I want to get. Ohio Powerlifting Bar. I need something for all 3 compound lifts.

Rogue Barbell Lineup Overview by Matt Chan. Working on the women's bars next! www.roguefitness.com/rogue-barbells

Thank you for producing this video. Excellent presentation by Matt Chan.

Knurl is my new favourite word.

Thanks Matt and Rogue, very quick and informational.

Very professional, informative and well done video!

Love Matt Chan, love Rogue, and love Columbus, OH. This video nails everything, haha.

Awesome video, as usual. I wanted to request a video comparing the RM-6 vs RM-6 2.0, though....

I've been holding back on buying a bar because of all the choices but now I am informed and ready to buy.

Love Rogue products!! Getting my Ohio Bar (E-coat) today!! - took a lot of patience and self control to not succumb to eBay scammers and wait for one direction from Rogue.

Just purchased my first Chan bar!

Great video!

nice video. im picking up a rogue 2.0 on friday, at long last!

My college gym has a few ohio power bars they are my favorite.

As someone who didn't know the specifics between the barbells while looking for one. I needed this video.

Do a wsm/Arnold version of this with their tensile strength bars and elephant bar please.

Hmmm... was looking at a Texas Deadlift Bar... but now I'm thinking the Matt Chan bar... I like that extra smooth area to keep me from bleeding when I go heavy in the future.

Great stuff

Nice video, what about the Cerakote bars ? Also about the bushing vs. bearing design, does it really make a difference in the spin ? Maybe only in the longevity of the bar ? One could also argue that the 1mm difference in diameter of some bars would make the grip effort easier (28mm) or harder (29mm). Anyway for a classical garage use I think that all those bars are suitable.

Nothing bests a old rusted york bar

Hi. Sorry I got so confused so which bar of these is the best for deadlift, squats and bench press. I’m looking for also the best for corrosion resistance and looking if possible. Thanks for help

I just need one bar I can deadlift with, squat with and bench with. I don't want to have to buy 10 bars. The Ohio Power bar sounds right for me. I'm still under 500lbs on my lifts

Quick inquiry; when will Rogue Fitness start offering internships for undergraduates with degrees such as Manufacturing Engineering Technology?

I have an urgent question that I would love if you could answer, can I use the Rogue Lb Competition plates or/and the rogue change plates on the Rogue Ohio bar. I am planning on buying the rogue ohio bar with ton of theses plates and I am wondering if they fit in the bar. Thanks in advance! or which ohio bar do I order for them?

Rogue, it's great going over your site and seeing all those equipment but the prices are very prohibitive for those living outside the US. Prices for the bars alone are already a month or so of wage for most people here in Asia. If prices are more affordable for many people here, I would consider Rogue.

Great explanations! So for T-Bar Row and Squads, the Ohio Power Bar is the best choice?

I have some older style Golds Gym, cheap bars I'm certain, but they are both Gold's but have different ring placement from the center knurl. Can anyone tell me what the actual measurements are for various bars from center knurl to outer knurl, so that once I figure out the one I prefer, I'll know which type to buy or at least where I need the ring's. Thank you for any helpful input.

Anyone know does any of these bars clang when you shake the sleeve( s)?

The oly wl bar is actually straighter than most arrows. Usually only the high end arrows are 0.001” in straightness

this is a very good example of presentation

Guys, what's the best Rogue Fitness bar for Deadlifting? I've run out of space at 460 on my gym's barbells and the manager told me to bring him a suitable bar for them to buy. Which one of these has good flex and is able to hold more weight?

Have you guys changed the specs of the Matt chan bar? The website said 200 000 tensile strength and composite bushings

Can the BUSHINGS or BEARINGS on the sleeves be replaced? Or when they wear out is that the end of the bars life?

Does it matter how you store your bar? Vertically or horizontal

What about the rogue beater bar

They should make a 30.5mm out of Haynes brand Waspalloy fully hard. Bore the bushings and super finish the outside and inside use a labyrinth seal to keep chalk out. People would be lined up way down the road to buy one.

If your bar is constantly twisting in your hands is it broken? mine twist alot while in my hands

Hey, Thanks for video Are there any lifts in which a [good] spin is not beneficial (e.g. overhead press)? I'm unable to drop weights at my gym and so spinning weights make lowering barbells needlessly tricky; especially once sweat builds up on bars with passive knurl Hope to hear back Kind thanks

Great bars, but if you want a really good olympic bar, go for Pendlay or Eleiko

Hello! I have a question. Why are there two knurl marks on the bar: 81 cm and 91 cm?

Can someone please explain to me what "the whip" and "spin" are, and why are they important?

What would you Recommend for home use

Good video thanks

Hello :) what is the coatage of the black bar plz ? Black zinc or e coat ? What is the blackest choice pls ? I know ecoat is shinny pretty much than the black zinc but it looks like pretty much dark i think ;)

What about deadlift bars?

So which of these are olympic and which are standard? So confused....I'm very green btw. In case you couldnt tell...lol

Can you do a review of the new echo bar. It seems like an ohio bar without the dual knurl marks and no end caps. Is this correct?

Love it. The oly wightlifting bar, can i use it for some powerlifting too? I am not a beast, so i will not put on 100's of pounds, but i will be sure to get quality items from the start. That is why i am wondering about the oly weightlifting bar.

I dont understand why it needs to spin for some bars or whats the whip for?does the bar having a whip make it harder and give you a better workout or is it to make it easier? I dont get all this.whats the spin for?

How much weight do you need to be lifting to notice "good whip"?

I know bushing bar with famous spin... bearing shaft dislike increase in age ....during long years of dropping all is destroyed in bearing. (I was forced to replace 10 bearing of my old UDDEHOLM. AFTER 20 YEARS...TEN OF INTENSIVE USE)..... im not afficionados of dual mark bars ....its really not interresting...personnally if i was USA resident i buy a Euro WL bar for Oly-L and Ohio power bar for "big 3".....(im in France and i own ELEIKO COMPETITION for Oly and PALLINI IPF BARBELL...BOTH ARE CERTIFIED..(PRICE AFFRAID BUT WITH 2 SPECIFICS BARS ITS DECADES OF SERENITY).... I love ROGUE to.but in France its rare . My critic is against dual marks....(Eleiko or Rogue is not problem)...problem is : 1) for bench and Back Squat i love a very rigid bar withouth whip(for D-L i can use a whippy bar if grip is good...but i dont prefer)...... 2) for snatch i can use rigid bar(if spin is good) but for Clean Jerk..I NEED OF ALL MY SOUL A ULTRA WHIPPY BARBELL...For absorb clean enrrgy and manage spring effect at jerk....IF A BAR IS GOOD FOR C/J....how use it for heavy back squats or Bench..???? If a bar is good in Bench or Squat.. how you can clean it....(at 425/440 lbs its a TORTURE...Geneva convention should forbidden that)

Those bars made for weightlifting are crap for powerlifting one taught me a lesson. I got hold of it I thought it felt weird. The disks were flapping in the wind it almost rolled off my back. I looked and noticed it was thinner and said Elikio on it.

Absolutely great video! Chuck full of everything you need to know when choosing a barbell. I'm definitely going with the Matt Chan bar for my clients...& for myself! It's got the best, of all bar worlds!

What is the best bar to start ?

So Ohio or Rogue 2.0 for Garage Gym? Please someone help a brother out. Im leaning towards Ohio because of the 2 brass bushings. I want to order in the next hour. thanks

I'll take one of each, thanks!

Which Ohio Power Bar is better? The 45lb version or 20kg version. I lift weights in my garage gym as a "hobby" and am not looking to train for competition.

is there any bar that can be used for all big lifts including oly lifts ?

Looking for my dad late at night on KZfaq and I end up here...

My Name Is Knurl.

I’m planning on starting a home gym. Can anyone tell me if they think the rogue power bar or the Chan bar is better for multi purpose?

What about the elephant bar?

So they're basically all the same?

Anyone else thinks that he looks like a tattooed John Cena?

i love my rogue ohio bar. love that it was made in america using american steel. keep the manufacturing dream alive rogue!

Where’s the Westside Power Bar.

we need this videos in spanish too

what kind of bar is the Thor bar?

I know lots of women use the men's bars & that Bella is supposed to be a woman version of Ohio but no mention? no women's bars mentioned at all?wasn't Bella used at the Games this year?

Is there a rogue deadlift bar ?

QUESTION TO THE ENGINEERS: Can someone scientifically explain the term "WHIP" to me? I have not been able to find anything meaningful on this subject so far. How is the supposedly noticeable difference between the deflection of the barbells during lifting to be achieved? I learned that the bending stiffness, i.e. the resistance of the bar to elastic deformation, depends only on the youngs modulus and the moment of inertia. Bending stiffness = E x I. Since the youngs modulof different steel grades or alloys shows virtually no variability and the moment of inertia of a barbell can only be changed by the diameter, I ask myself how a "whip" should be created?

The strength of the steel will not effect the whip of the bar unless it's so low that the bar bends.. The change in whip would be from change in bar diameter

Love my Ohio Power Bar

Would you recommend Ohio power bar for CrossFit WODs? many thanks.

190K PSI??? how about 190KSI. K is a kip (1000 lbs) so this is saying 190,000 lbs lbs per in^2. Nothing worse than talking about the strength of something when you don't know what you're talking about. Talking about mechanics of materials here people.

Hi, I'm Matt Chan and werg rogue HQ today.

ELIKO is where its at.

To summarize: For 95% of people who lift literally any barbell is fine

DUAL MARK IW ACCEPTABLE FOR INITIATION OR VERY LIGHT LOADS.. when i create plans of Personal GYms for my Friend/cousin/brothers i order purchase of 1) A great 28mm Oly bar 1bis) same in 25mm for the Miss .2) a good power bar 29mm 3) EZ Bar 4)Triceps bomber 5) squat Rack 6) ipf Bench 7) dumbels modulable 8) lot of Bumpers 9) captain crush series 10)kettlbell series.. and wall bars and parrallel dips bar. Are obe obligation..in more.....after all that i advice him for machines..... (pulley in first)...lol

whats a bar you can just fuck up something that'll survive 600 to 700 lb on squat and deadlift

All very nice maybe one day i can afford one

Guys looks and sounds like the deadpool of crossfit

Now just show us how the weights are cast or cut.

I don't see how they even use them. I reckon they are used to them its a completely different sport.

Bars should have no whip off the ground, whatsoever. It only makes the lift easier.

2:47 General humans? Are robots or monkeys power-lifting now too

Are you part Asian?

I don’t see the point of the Matt Chan bar besides the fact that the knurling won’t scare ur shins cuz it’s not as long

ill save my 500 hundred bucks and get something else. the bar i got with my weight set from dicks sports does a dandy job and i've been using and abusing it for several years now

And his name is JOHN CENA

With the 51 new genders added to the list these days, I assume rogue gotta to introduce different variety color bands to satisfy them all 😂

Oh nice! Checks stock. No stock. Waits for stock. An eternity later, Dies of old age. 😀😬😳🥺😒☹️😢🏋🏻‍♀️ 👴🏻🪦

is your display bench made of power rack struts ? lol

Dude said a bench bar lol

Eleiko still make better bars

Can I have just one

dude needs to get that wart checked out

Thanks! But I feel elekio is the best WL bar ever.

Almost skipped this video because I'm looking for a powerlifting bar, not a weightlifting bar.
