Last year, I enrolled in a fitness kickboxing classes for 2 months in order to force myself to get out of the house and do some cardio exercises, and it worked. I lost 10 lbs in just 2 months.After losing 10 lbs and feeling good about myself, I was motivated to exercise and workout at home to lose more weight and to also save money from kickboxing classes so I started purchasing exercise equipment and weights for the first time.I'm not a serious weight lifter but rather wanted to simply burn calories and fat while gaining some muscles.I started my home workouts with push ups, sit ups and dumbbells for first 2 months mixing with some cardio exercises and I lost another 10 lbs.However, I felt like I was neglecting my legs and my lower body so after asking around, I found that squat is one of the best workouts for your legs and lower body (as well as your cores!).So I purchased this barbell along with squat stands and I loved it!As you can see in the picture, there is one or two nicks on the barbell but it doesn't really affect my weight training, especially since I have gloves on. You really can't go wrong with this barbell for its price. All other barbells cost at least twice more if not 3 times or higher.I also like the fact that this is one solid piece rather than some other cheap barbells that come in two pieces where you have to join and lock them in the middle. I don't think I want to take any chance of two piece barbell coming apart while doing the squats :) I'm taking 1 star away only because it didn't come with the rubber rings at the end and because of the small nicks but again, this is a solid buy for its price!*** TIP ***If you are looking to buy a barbell for squats, the squat stand is a must-have so that you don't hurt yourself. Therefore, you should get at least 72" long barbell or even longer because the squat stands takes up spaces on the floor in order to prevent from tipping over.With this 72" long barbell, I have enough space to stand in between squat stands but if you get anything shorter than 72" barbell, the squat stand legs will be on your way during the workout.I hope this helps and if it did, please click on the helpful button below! Thanks and good luck!

Last year, I enrolled in a fitness kickboxing classes for 2 months in order to force myself to get out of the house and do some cardio exercises, and it worked. I lost 10 lbs in just 2 months.

After losing 10 lbs and feeling good about myself, I was motivated to exercise and workout at home to lose more weight and to also save money from kickboxing classes so I started purchasing exercise equipment and weights for the first time.

I'm not a serious weight lifter but rather wanted to simply burn calories and fat while gaining some muscles.
I started my home workouts with push ups, sit ups and dumbbells for first 2 months mixing with some cardio exercises and I lost another 10 lbs.

However, I felt like I was neglecting my legs and my lower body so after asking around, I found that squat is one of the best workouts for your legs and lower body (as well as your cores!).

So I purchased this barbell along with squat stands and I loved it!

As you can see in the picture, there is one or two nicks on the barbell but it doesn't really affect my weight training, especially since I have gloves on. You really can't go wrong with this barbell for its price. All other barbells cost at least twice more if not 3 times or higher.

I don't think I want to take any chance of two piece barbell coming apart while doing the squats :) I'm taking 1 star away only because it didn't come with the rubber rings at the end and because of the small nicks but again, this is a solid buy for its price!

*** TIP ***

If you are looking to buy a barbell for squats, the squat stand is a must-have so that you don't hurt yourself. Therefore, you should get at least 72" long barbell or even longer because the squat stands takes up spaces on the floor in order to prevent from tipping over.
With this 72" long barbell, I have enough space to stand in between squat stands but if you get anything shorter than 72" barbell, the squat stand legs will be on your way during the workout.
