For Comfortable Strength Training: Barbell with Spring Collar
The barbell is the must-have for serious strength training. Even without additional equipment, it enables important basic exercises such as deadlifts and squats as well as isolation exercises such as bicep curls. All the better if it is as practical and convenient as this version: thanks to the spring collars, you can change the weight plates in no time at all. Involuntarily extended breaks between sets are a thing of the past. What's more, the model is equipped with a neck pad as standard. This prevents painful contact between the neck or chest and the barbell when training with heavy weights.
The Barbell with Spring Collars and Neck Pad in Detail
The barbell has a high-quality chrome-plated finish with a non-slip knurled grip surface. The spring collars are easy to attach and lock themselves as soon as you release them. The 40 cm wide neck pad is fitted with a Velcro fastener and can be removed if necessary. This means you can also use it with other dumbbell bars.

I was disappointed that my weights didnt fit. My own fault as I assumed there was only standard or Olympic. This one is bigger than standard but smaller than Olympic.
