6′ Ultra-Lite Olympic Technique Training Bar – CAP Barbell (OB-73UL)

CAP Barbell OB-73UL 6′ Ultra-Lite Olympic Technique Training Bar – Why is a light weight Olympic bar preferred for learning Olympic weightlifting technique? A technique training bar is a lighter and shorter version of a full sized weight lifting bar and is helpful in allowing coaches to more effectively teach and correct Olympic weight lifting technique prior to moving on to a full size and weight bar. Training with a technique bar can quicken the learning process and reduce the risk of injury while technique improves.

The CAP Ultra-Light Olympic Training Bar is an economically priced bar constructed from steel with a black oxide finish over the shaft and chrome finish over the sleeves. Reducing the overall length of this bar down to 6′ is achieved by shortening the sleeves while the knurled shaft remains the same length shoulder to shoulder as the full sized competition bar. The OB-73UL bars is made for technique training only and should not be used with weight loads exceeding 250 lbs.
