No fuss, affordable, quality gym accessory from a brand that I trust (the squat rack in the picture is by the same maker, I’ve had it since the pandemic). The ability to rotate that handles cannot be understated as it allows for extended range of motion for exercises that require a different type of grip. As for the bar itself, it’s light enough that my 3 year-old daughter can lift it, but feels sturdy and well made. I loaded 260lbs (pictured) and have used it in said configuration for a few workouts without any downsides. I suppose that if you have thicker plates you could run into a space issue while racking and securing more plates, but it’s only rated for 400lbs. So know what you are purchasing. Bonus: it stores nicely in the squat rack by the same brand, keeping a tidy gym. Recommended! Read more

I’ve owned this trap bar for 1.5 years. The chrome seem good - no cracking or chipping. It may be “hard chrome”, which is what you want in lifting bars. Build quality seems solid and I have no concerns about it’s welds. The dimensions are great. The handles are a comfortable width, height, and diameter for both me (6’, around 200lbs) and my wife (5’10, around 125lbs). No issues with the standing area being too small even with my “winter coat.” Really, it’s perfect in many ways and I do like it’s smaller width overall. Some trap bars are just crazy wide. I removed two stars because (1) the knurling is horrible and (2) the sleeves are short (9-3/8” loadable sleeve per side). So, there’s a trade-off for the shorter width that I like. And while the sleeves are probably adequate for most, even me if I used iron, but for those looking to lift BIG, you’ll probably need longer sleeves. 1: The knurling was stamped to a pyramid but left sharp. It’s pretty darn aggressive to say the least. I took a file to it and it’s still sharp. I just wear gloves and that mitigates the issue. So, chalk it up as getting what you paid for but not a critical flaw. There was one serious issue here though: there was a super sharp piece of metal hanging off the edge of the knurling when we got it, it sliced a deep cut into my finger when I lifted it to just move it without any weight. I filed it off. 2: The sleeves are a bit short. The maximum weight I can fit is 281.4 lbs of bumper plate (115 per side), or 411.4 lbs of urethane coated iron (180 per side). I would get a better bar (which have longer sleeves) and more bumper plates before I used iron plates. Comes down to using the right tool for the job. Even if it’s another set of plates to buy. My bar weighs 51.4 lbs. My legs are about average for a guy. Certainly not tree trunks like a power lifter. More of a runner’s tone. Though I do find that I’m moving up in weight and even though I expect to hit plateaus at times, I may eventually outgrow this bar and still not have built tree trunk legs (not that I want them). I didn’t know of brands like REP fitness and Rogue when I bought this bar, though had I, I certainly would have paid $264 for the REP bar. The knurling is awesome (they hone a smooth bowl at the top of each pyramid, so it grips but doesn’t cut). Also, I would not outgrow it. But of course it’s twice the price. So, if you’re looking for a budget bar, is this bar a good option? Yes, absolutely, with a couple caveats (knurling, sleeve length). If you’ve got the money to consider other options, buy once, cry once - with a reputable brand like REP or Rogue. I attached pictures of the bar loaded with bumper plates and also with urethane coated iron. You see that there isn’t quite enough space to fit the purple clamp, though there’s enough to make what I think is safe contact. …It’s a squat, not a kettlebell swing. All the best in your fit-life goals! Read more

I'm a 73 year-old male. for years i did heavy squats using just a standard 7 foot long Olympic bar. Then I stopped doing squats when I got into my 60s and felt that I shouldn't be doing heavy squats anymore (I was wrong). Then, even though I walked a lot and bicycled year round and even did unweighted lunges, my legs and glutes began to get weaker. Especially my glutes which started hurting all the time but especially when I was driving a car. I realized I had to go back to doing squats again. But when I tried to put the Olympic bar across my back after nearly 20 years of not doing the movement, it wouldn't lay across my back because with age I had lost too much elasticity in my muscles and joints. That was when I say this Sunny bar and decided to give it a try. It works great and I'm able to use it with my power rack (see pic). So far, I've only been putting about a hundred pounds or so on it but its not real easy putting the 35 and 45 plates on, but its nice not having to worry about balancing a heavy load on my back. The only thing it's missing is a built-in adjustable stand that would allow the user to not have to use it in conjunction with another piece of equipment that doesn't perfectly fit its length and spacing so that it would be easier to add heavy plates to. Other wise I'm very happy with the purchase. Read more
