Weightlifting Competition Bar – Competition barbell for highest demands
Anyone who wants to train professionally as a weightlifter also needs professional equipment. In weightlifting and crossfit therefore hardly a way leads past a high-quality competition barbell. Whether you want to reach the next level in your home gym or equip your box with IWF standard competition material, our precision-made Weightlifting Competition Bar is just what you need.
IWF Olympic barbells
Each sport has its own rules and regulations. This is no different when it comes to weightlifting, because only then do the same conditions prevail for all participants all over the world. Our Olympic barbell exactly meets the standards and specifications that the International Weightlifting Federation places on a competition barbell.
IWF-compliant barbells come exclusively from licensed manufacturers who pay attention to the highest quality, particularly durable steels, high-quality bearings and precise mass. In order to ensure competition-compliant training according to the rules of the IWF, the Weightlifting Competition Bar is indispensable in the CrossFit box or the gym.
What makes the competition barbell so special
Even the characteristic sound of steel makes the hearts of power and crossfit athletes beat faster. Thanks to its softer and therefore particularly flexible spring steel, such a barbell offers optimum conditions for competitive sports – including an extra bounce in Clean & Jerk. Thanks to its special material composition, an Olympic barbell can absorb more elastic energy (whip), which athletes can use to their advantage in competition. This is a significant difference to other types of barbells, such as the powerlifting bar.
Tip: Since the training feeling between conventional barbell and competition barbell differs significantly, we recommend competitive athletes training with a high-quality Weightlifting Competition Bar.
Standards of the Olympic barbell
For a barbell to qualify as a competition barbell, it must meet the stringent IWF weight and weight standards. Probably the most important factor is the competition weight, which is set at 20 kilograms. While you often do not know exactly what they weigh with other barbells, you can be sure that a Weightlifting Competition Bar always weighs 20 kilograms.
Only a minimum weight tolerance within the scope of 19.99 kg to 20.02 kg is permissible. The dimensions are exactly prescribed with regard to the total length, the grip surface, the receptacles and the rod diameter.
