Olympic Barbells

An Olympic barbell is the foundation of strength training and the centrepiece of almost every gym floor. Designed for performance and precision, Olympic barbells stand apart from standard bars thanks to their longer length and 2-inch sleeve diameter. This design allows them to hold heavier weights securely, making them perfect for both professional lifters and everyday gym users.

Each bar is engineered with smooth-rotating sleeves that reduce torque on the wrists during lifts such as cleans and snatches. This rotation not only improves performance but also helps minimise the risk of injury during explosive movements. The knurled handles provide a confident, non-slip grip, giving you total control through every rep, even during the most demanding training sessions.

Whether you’re equipping a commercial gym, upgrading your strength area, or training at home, our Olympic barbells are built to last. They deliver consistent spin, reliable strength, and outstanding comfort for every type of lifter.
