A 2-inch Olympic bar is the piece a plate-loaded home gym is built around. Straight bars cover squats, presses and conventional pulls; a trap bar is for people who prefer to stand inside the load rather than behind it.
The Olympic 2-inch barbell comes in 4 ft, 5 ft, 6 ft and 7 ft, black or silver, each supplied with clips. Sleeves are Olympic 2-inch (50 mm) and rotate; the chrome bar in the product photo shows knurled grip zones and reference marks. The Olympic Hex Trap Bar 2 is a hexagonal chrome frame with neutral parallel handles. These bars take Olympic 2-inch plates only. For arm isolation on a cambered bar, see EZ bars.
Every bar order includes free delivery across Great Britain (Scottish Highlands and Islands included), 7 ft bars and the trap bar included. Read the barbell guide before you pick a length.
