Description
It has an excellent sleeve spin and could be used for explosive lifts as well, though dropping with weights is not recommended (for this purpose please see spring steel women`s weightlifting barbells).
Measurements are based on women`s/junior standard weightlifting measurements, with 25 mm shaft thickness and 15 kg weight.
This barbell uses a black E-coating, (harder wearing than black oxide, chrome and zinc) which is corrosion resistant, environmentally friendly and economical. E-Coating is the process of electrically applying a paint finish to metals. The end result is a hard-wearing, durable and safe finish which effectively resists oxidation and corrosion from water, sunlight and household chemicals.
