Why the fuck does this exist

I use them for ohp if all the racks are being used. Bit annoying to clean the weight off the ground through.

So wait a second
Bare barbell (heh) weights 55, and this weights 60... it's just plain waste of cash for gym

They are shorter, I mostly see brrappthots using them for walking lunges.

For overhead press and straight bar assisted curls.

Some people can't even start with empty barbells. There are many girls at my gym who can't press an Olympic bar overhead for example.

I use these for lunges as I don't fancy dropping metal plates on the wood if I fuck up

I use them to warm up for OHP, and walking lunges.

the grill at my gym used them until she could press a normal barbell

I like using the EZ curl version for, well, curls and reverse curls. This is good for TUT lunges and shoulder press.

As long as it has weight, it has some sort of purpose. If you can't find a use for it, you're a dyel.

why the fuck not? its much better to curl with this shit than a regular barbell, it takes half the space to do the same shit

>curling with a straight bar

that's how you fuck up your forearms, just use an ez bar
