The Lumberjack 7 foot Olympic Barbell is designed as a performance bar, striking a balance between flexibility and stiffness. This makes it suitable for a wide range of lifts, including snatches, cleans, bench presses, squats, and deadlifts. Its moderate flex ensures optimal performance across these movements. With a robust weight capacity of 1000 pounds, the bar is engineered for heavy lifting while maintaining the necessary balance of give and rigidity to support proper technique and safety. This barbell is an ideal choice for a diverse group of users, from beginners to advanced lifters. Its versatility makes it well-suited for various training styles, such as powerlifting, Olympic lifting, and general strength training, making it a valuable addition to home gyms, commercial facilities, and for competitive athletes.
A high-quality shaft coating contributes to the bar's longevity. The Lumberjack's shaft features black manganese phosphate, which offers superior corrosion and abrasion protection compared to black oxide. This coating also provides the bar shaft with a slightly tacky feel, enhancing grip. The knurling is of medium depth and fine, featuring dual IWF and IPF knurling marks. This combination of coating and knurling ensures a firm, superior grip without being overly aggressive.
The chrome sleeves of the Lumberjack Olympic bar rotate freely on self-lubricating brass alloy bushings. These sleeves are securely attached to the bar using a maintenance-free dual snap ring system. Crafted from high-quality alloy steel, the Lumberjack 7 foot Olympic bar delivers ultimate performance for cross training, Olympic, and power lifting routines. As with all black manganese phosphate shafts, it is recommended to protect this investment by regularly wiping down the bar with a light coat of a 3-in-1 oil.
