Hello everybody
I recently picked up an old barbell, only I am struggling to determine the brand, maybe you guys can help me out? It has a split sleeve but i cant find any marking/brandname..
I payed 50 euros for it dunno if thats a good deal or not.
Some details:
- bar length: 7 ft or 213 cm
- Sleeve length: a little bit more than 13 inches or 33,5 cm (see picture)
- No centre knurling
- weight: 20 KG
As i cant directly upload to this forum, i posted the photo's to my bodyspace (Gallery photo's)
i already made a post in the vintage iron thread and the york barbell thread but i dont think alot of ppl will read it as there is alot of spam
Also posted on startingstrenght forum and mark rippetoe replied that he thinks its european
Thanks!

There are two types of barbells: free weights and barbells, both of which consist of a long metal bar with weights attached at either end. The bench press is a piece of gym equipment that can be found in most gyms, and is commonly used for strength training exercises such as squats, deadlifts, bench presses, and overhead presses.
There are a few things that you should know about barbells that you may want to know:
Various kinds of barbells are available on the market, each of which is designed to meet the needs of a particular purpose. There are many different types of barbells that can be found on the market, including Olympic barbells, powerlifting barbells, and specialty barbells such as trap bars and curl bars.
Barbell Parts: Generally speaking, a barbell is made up of a bar, sleeves, collars, and weight plates. Bars are usually made out of steel or aluminum and they are usually knurled so that they are easier to grip. This is where the weight plates are loaded into the sleeves, and the collars are used to secure the weight plates in place, as they are the rotating parts.
It is important to know that barbells come in different weights. For women, they can range from 15 to 45 pounds, and for men, they can range from 35 to 45 pounds. In order to compete in Olympic competitions, men use 45 pounds Olympic barbells and women use 35 pounds Olympic barbells.
Depending on the type of exercise you would like to perform, the length of a barbell can be shorter or longer, depending on the type of exercise you intend to perform.
The strength of a barbell is determined by two factors: its yield strength and the tensile strength of its steel. When a barbell is yielded, it holds a certain amount of weight with no sign of bending, whereas it is tensed when it bends

I absolutely love this thread! It's a fantastic initiative to shed light on the significance of the Olympic barbell for a home gym. The detailed breakdown of characteristics, like shaft diameter and whip, is invaluable for making informed decisions. Kudos to the author for helping others find the perfect barbell match!

Just had to jump in here and share the scoop on my latest home gym addition – the CultSport Adjustable Barbell. Guys, I'm seriously loving this thing!
I've been using it for a while now, and it's become the star of my workouts. The adjustability is a total game-changer for me. Whether I'm going heavy or keeping it light, it adapts like a champ. Quick adjustments mean no workout interruptions, and that's a win in my book.
If you're on the hunt for a reliable, versatile barbell, this is it. Trust me; it's become my workout partner in crime, and I can't recommend it enough.
