Hookgrip Barbell Review

April 7, 2015 By Gregor Winter

Hookgrip took a closer look at various barbells manufacturers.

They looked at:

  • Eleiko, ZKC, Werksan, Rogue and Again Faster
  • weight deviation
  • bar whip
  • spin

PS: I am currently in Lima for youth worlds. Most updates here and on Facebook/Twitter during that time (till later next week) will be provided by Phil and Anton.

    Klokov at least said that the bar whip really only comes into play at about 200kg. It is of course irrelevant to most lifters, but maybe they would have seen more variety in results, had they used a bigger weight?
