Body Sport Weighted Bars, Weight Lifting Bars for Strength Training and Sculpting

Very pleased with this. I'm out of shape and the 6 lb bar is ideal as a beginner. Bought a simple dvd to start "Total Body Express" and love exercising with this. I am a small frame older woman and found gripping the bar is easy and comfortable. Think 6 lb was a good starting point for me. I'm inactive and overweight and this 6 lb is perfect. Weight is evenly distributed. Rubber tips on each end great for when bar is used in vertical position with tip on the floor. The bar offers a lot of stability and balance. Easier to do the exercises and control the form rather than using hand weights. Easier to control body position with this. The bar seems much better on my hands and wrists instead of hand weights . However, I'm finding it difficult to find a whole body workout dvd that is longer and harder than what I bought. Will definitely keep the bar in my weight loss routine. Came shipped UPS, in a sturdy cardboard box with the bar packed tight in the box with heavy bubble wrap. All I had to do was open the box, remove the bubble wrap (easy) and ready to go. Will definitely buy this in heavier weight as I progress.

I'm giving this item five stars even though I returned it, since it's one of the highest quality weighted bars I've ever used. The grip is extremely good and doesn't flake or compress like some I've used, and it's very well balanced. The reason I returned it is a detail that isn't listed in the item description: it has sand inside of it that swishes around as you swing it. I didn't like the sound. It's a great exercise bar, but be aware that there's sand under the rubber in addition to the steel bar.

This product was recommended by an osteoporosis exercise specialist who used it to demonstrate specific bone strengthening exercises in a special session with me. I purchased one for myself to do these exercises at home, and it is great. No cons.

I now own 3 of these bars in different weight sizes. I absolutely love them. They store nicely in a corner with no clunky additional weights needed. You can easily store them under a bed or couch too. I consider this a win win solution for working out at home with minimal space. Plus, I don't have to worry about dropping a weight on my tile floor.

I am a pilates instructor. I use these weighted bars for my reformer pilates classes. They are just the right length to use as a assistant prop and I also find it helpful to use a weighted bar in ab exercises to add a challenge. 4lbs bars are perfect for class and if someone wants more weight they can hold two bars.

I use the Weighted Bars at home for Strength training and bicep curl. I also using when I'm doing situps. the bars also good for stretching. The Weighted Bars is just the right size for me and just as the seller described it. It's not to heavy and it's not to lite. It the perfect size. Thank you Curj

Perhaps the highest quality, cushioned exercise bar I'v ever experienced. So many of them have a lightweight cushion coating that slips around and feels flimsy and loose. Not this one. You can feel the quality construction in it immediately

I have always used a long wood stick from home depot or lowes for stretching and yoga-ish type exercise.This is much better, more solid support and LOVE the soft foam gripAlso the best price compare to other "name" brands

Super mais un peu courte en longueur !
