StrongArm Standard Bar – Beginner Powerlifting Barbell with Black Zinc Coating

The StrongArm Standard Bar is your ideal starting point if you're new to strength training or powerlifting. Designed with comfort and durability in mind, this barbell offers a perfect balance of performance and approachability for beginners who still want solid construction and serious capability.

With a shaft diameter of 28mm and a tensile strength of 195,000 PSI, the StrongArm Standard Bar can hold up to demanding training without feeling overwhelming in your hands. Unlike our elite-level Razor or Power Bar, this bar uses a medium knurling pattern — less aggressive on the skin but still delivers strong grip support.

Fully finished in black zinc plating, it’s protected against rust and corrosion while offering a sleek, all-black appearance. If you’re shopping for your first Olympic barbell, this is hands-down one of the best beginner barbells in Canada for the price.
