Barbell Question for Cathe workouts
I've been debating for awhile about whether or not I need a barbell for Cathe's workouts, and, I think I've finally decided that, yes, yes I DO need a barbell.
I'm just wondering, for those that long since came to that same conclusion for themselves , what brand barbell do you use? I've been eyeing the Troy barbell offerings, but I'm not sure if it will be sufficient. I'm not super advanced, so, I feel like, though the maximum weight for those bars is on the low end, it will be enough for me. (I only have DBs up to 30lbs, as it is.) I'd like to know everyone's thoughts, though, obviously. Any input, of any kind -- feedback, experiences, advice, recommendations --would be appreciated! (PS I debated about where to post this; since it was specific to one particular instructor and her workouts, I felt it was appropriate in GD. . .)

I had a barbell years ago and used it for a while but I find that dumbells work better for me anyway. The heaviest weights I have are 15 pounders. If I were to lift heavier than that at home than perhaps a barbell would be better.
I am happy with my dumbells, my barbell was clunky and took up too much space. I set it out on the curb during the spring clean up days and someone grabbed it. |
