Got the chance to use the new Rogue Stainless Steel Squat bar the other day while traveling and fell in love. I was hoping to hold off on buying any new gear until we moved into our new house, but I came across a deal I couldn't pass up.

Who’s the n00b who forgot to take the camera off manual focus for the training clips?
Brandon Campbell Diamond must be taking potato classes from Maxx! Lol
Someone was focused on smooth shafts obviously.
@@bmstylee❤
...deadlift with it
Prob would be pretty fun.
@@BasementBrandon Powerlifting youtuber challenge idea: Double overhand max with a squat bar. Make it like the Pops Lockout Challenge but with fewer torn biceps.
at that point you can just use an axle though
@@Kasper-xe4iw or fat gripz
I'd love to have that thick shaft on my back.
I bet he couldn't open the package fast enough, giddy with anticipation of feeling that thick rigid shaft for the first time.
Not the first shaft I've had on there.
Update. My wife got me this bar from the boneyard for Christmas. So I do get to feel the shaft! Thickest and best feeling one in my gym!
Justin Allred awesome!
That squat bar was so tempting... I was itching to pull that trigger, but I held off since I already have a Texas squat bar.
Shane DM enjoy it?
1JOEYTHEMAN1 Yeah it’s awesome but it’s a mammoth sized bar, long and unwieldy. It feels good on the back and in the hands, insomuch that I like to bench press with it. The rogue one looks cool too especially with that stainless steel shaft. Mine is black zinc I think.
I haven't used a TSB yet (one of the few I haven't). I have a buddy who has both and says the Texas bar has more whip, but that's 2nd hand info
Where would be the best place for a cheapo to find a used squat bar! Strongarm is up to 340$ before shipping now. (Edit, strongarm price INCLUDES shipping!, sorry strongarm!)
Don't find many used squat bars floating around.
Goddammit! I've been checking the boneyard a few times a week for the last two months and somehow missed this one!
First time this has been in there to my knowledge. Posted it on IG when it was available :)
Talk more about having smooth shafts on your back
hey now
@@BasementBrandon Sick of being body shamed for my smooth shaft. Gonna buy a squat bar smh
I have two of these in my gym.(@epicbarbell) most people like it but a few hate it because they can't do the math with a 55lbs bar. lol
Haha guilty of that at times
You literally just add 10ibs to whatever it would usually be...
145, 235, 325, 415, 505, 595, 685, 775, 865, 955, etc...
Kind weird, but cool.
Do you have the measurement between collars? Apologies if I missed it.
56"
Boneyard bars are awesome. Love my Boneyard 20 kg Ohio Power Bar. $250 shipped probably about a year ago. Keep looking for an Ohio Deadlift Bar and a weightlifting specific bar.
I'm waiting for a stainless ohio deadlift bar to come out, but I'm guessing there's no way to get a low enough tensile strength on stainless.
Would you do an apples to apples comparison on this bar vs the Strength Shop fully knurled squat bar? I'd love to hear about their difference in feel, function, and performance.
Rogue bar has the better knurl, finish (Stainless) and better build and is only about $50 more expensive.The only thing the StrengthShop bar has going for it over the Rogue is an extra set of knurl marks to denote where a normal bars knurl would be.
@@BasementBrandon would you buy the rogue one over the texas squat bar?
@@benrivera8468 I would for sure, fully knurled shaft, stainless steel.
@@BasementBrandon awesome. I pulled the trigger yesterday and ordered one
Running back through all the squat bar videos
My man
@@BasementBrandon evergreen content 🌲
Damn I wish I even had one good bar 😭I’m still in high school and we just got some cheap bars but they get the job done but I promise myself I’ll have a gym of my own one day
Keep working!
Reminds me of me...used to workout with rusty dumbbells in HS and made the same promise to myself....I now have a gym that definitely would made my HS self very proud....U’ll get there
My only dislike with this squat bar is that I would have like to have seen an additional set of rings for the point where the knurl would start on a regular power bar.
Yeah I could see that being helpful, was one of the things I liked about the StrengthShop Squat bar.
Ive recently switched to low bar, and my gym only has Olympic bars. I was going to buy the OPB but decided to wait for the all stainless version. I’m trying hit my first 500lb squat and just purchased this bar today. I’m excited to get it and see how much better it feels than the olly bars I’ve been using.
Go get that 500!
Just got one of these from the boneyard myself and am very impressed. Interestingly enough, mine came with boneyard end caps.
Ah right on!
That's alot of knurl. Squat bar is the most tempting to get in stainless steel besides basic power bar. Isn't that your third squat bar?
It was, but I sold the other 2 to buy this one.
Thanks for the video Brandon. Hope to eventually see another video on this squat bar once you’ve used it more. I’m interested to hear your thoughts comparing it to rogue power bar and if us regular guys will see much benefit. Like you a lot of us guys don’t need this barbell for the extra collar width. Personally I’m not even overloading my rogue Ohio power bar with bumper plates yet. Speaking of specialty squat bars, there’s lots of great information and reviews on the more common elite and rogue yoke squat bars, but any thoughts on the Kabuki transformer bar/ Elite FTS Rackable cambered Spider bar or regular rackable cambered squat bar. The road of specialty squat bars just keeps on going, gotta collect em all. There’s always just one more bar or piece of equipment I need to add.
The problem I have with Kabuki is even though they make pretty good stuff, it's an extreme premium price.
How often are you looking at the boneyard? I want to try and score any version of the ROPB.
Add a link shortcut icon on your phone's main page, and click it several times per day. That's how I got my deals. With that said, I strongly recommend against the black zinc OPB. Black zinc is just a shitty finish.
I look daily. I am looking for an Ohio Deadlift Bar and an Olympic bar. I am a powerlifter who often will dabble in the weightlifting world.
@PogChamp you should be looking for a power bar. From rogue it's called the Ohio power bar. 29mm
General rule of thumb is: 27mm is deadlift bar, 28mm is olympic lifting, 28.5mm is a multi purpose bar, 29mm is a power bar, 32mm is a squat bar.
Usually 1-2 times per day, I usually try to post deals on IG when I see them, but the good bars go quick.
could you bench with this comfortably ?
Sure could
Scrolled through all the comments to see if this man really replied to every one of them and he sure did. Great lifter and even better RUclipsr
Appreciate that man, least I can do for anyone that watches/comments.
Love these review videos. Very useful. Don't get the knurling on the back though. Must be a low bar thing.
Can help even with high bar!
How does this stack up to the StrongArm Squat Bar?
They're both good. The Rogue has a superior build, finish, and has a full knurl (Strongarm is more like the Texas bar). Strongarm's knurl is more sharp vs Rogue (grippy) so depends on your preference. Strongarm also upped the price of their bar to $300 (from $250) so while still a good deal, not as much as before.
Hey buddy . What are your thoughts on this bar vs the strong arm sport version? Did you notice any big diff in performance
Performance similar. My Strongarm was sharper (rogue is grippy), but Rogue had the better finish (SS vs Raw)
Sweet" thx bud .
Thanks, Brandon. Always good stuff.
For any of you hosers who live in the central Ohio area, you can defray shipping costs and pick up directly from Rogue facility.
Unfortunately I believe the Boneyard bars must be shipped regardless.
@@BasementBrandon Not that I doubted, but you are correct. No option to pickup Boneyard bars from Rogue. I'll sit down and be quiet now...
I don't want a smooth shaft on my back lol
hey now
Omg stainless steel is the way to go out in the garage! This squat bar seems like a great option especially for a wide rack.
If you asked me a few years ago I'd have said squat bars aren't needed, but I'll be damned if I don't prefer to use this for all my squatting now.
I can see that, seems like it would set really good on your back.
Can you tell me the brand of beanie you are wearing?
its from a7 but i don't think they make them anymore.
Just scored one of these from the Boneyard!!!
Nice!!
do you see a difference in quad development with low bar vs high bar
@@ia303 thanks. what assitance moment do you recommend for quads?
You'd probably see slight differences in hypertrophy specific training over a long period of time, but for powerlifting that doesn't really apply IMO
@@BasementBrandon thanks m' lord
Hello, can someone please tell me why anyone would have more than one straight bar? I don't get it? What's the advantage in this?
A real common combo is to have a weightlifting bar and a power bar. Both act very differently when under load and have characteristics which make them desirable for each of their intended lifts.
If you competed in a fed that used a deadlift bar, owning your own just for that lift would be very beneficial as that bar acts very differently to your standard power bar.
Many more bar types to own but those are some examples to explain the need/want(in my case all my bars were mainly a want) for several different barbells.
Cheetos405 each bar is different. You will notice the difference as you get better and better with the lifts. Deadlift bars are different to power bars are different to squat bars are different to Olympic weightlifting bars. And this gets even harder with women’s and junior’s bars. You might not feel it at 225lbs or even 315 but you can reasonably expect to hit 405 during a lifetime of lifting.
You also might be happy with just a weightlifting bar for everything.
@Xplora219 and @danntor thank you guys for the explanation. That helped a lot!
Cheetos405 a deadlift bar is a great idea if you do strongman or if you focus on deadlifts. I use specialty bars for squatting most of the time.
I'll use a simple analogy with cars. You can get ones that are good on gas mileage, ones built for speed, ones built for towing, etc... they all do the same general thing (transportation), but they're built for different tasks. Same with barbells.
I'm so early that I'm first
Sometimes coming first isn't a good thing.
I’m really liking my Rep Fitness deep knurl ex bar. I tried to wait fir a deal I the boneyard on Rogues sight. Nothing I wanted ever came up.
Yeah def a waiting game!
Great review as always Brandon. In this review, you mention the Kabuki Strength Squat Bar and the fact that Kabuki Strength bars are coated/treated and therefore won't compare to the feel of a stainless steel or bare steel bar. I was slightly confused because in your review of the Kabuki New Gen Power Bar you mention that "the knurl has reset your definition of what you consider to be good knurling," and their power bars have the same coating/finishes as their squat bars.
At the time of making that video I didn't own any bare steel or stainless bars. The Kabuki bar still has great knurl, but is more prone to oxidation/rust.
First viewer? Free gift??? Lol
Sweaty knee sleeves for all.
got a big package with your name on it.
