This is a post many have already seen and I'm pretty sure I've asked the question a couple of times myself. But being there are new products out, thought I'd ask the good o'l boys, out of this selection of barbells, which would get? Other suggestions?
To be more specific, I'm a serious lifter, but not a competitive lifter. My focus is building strength, and since I'm too married and aging, I don't give the flucks about aesthetics. Still, my numbers aren't insane, and I don't see myself doing Olympic lifting any time soon. I don't think I'd need one of the $400+ bars, at least not now.
