Final Verdict and Review

Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase. The main happiness is due to the Body Olympic bar which gave a great feel in my hands along with thecomfort, also I didn’tfeel any painon my back while I did deadlift or bicep curls. The threading and etching on the grip was brilliant. No bar in the gym equipment category can match its quality except of its price which in my opinion was a bit higher.Even by its looks, you’ll feel the build quality i.e. Sleeves and knurling.
