BARBELLS

What is the weight of an Olympic barbell?

A barbell is a long bar for weightlifting. Plates of various weights are placed on both ends to increase the total weight that has to be lifted. In Olympic weightlifting there are different rules about the weights of bumper plates, fractional plates, collars and barbells. A woman's Olympic barbell weighs 15kg and a man's Olympic barbell weighs 20kg without plates or collars. Our barbells are made of black zinc, with a diameter of 50mm.
