Another good video. It might be a little bit of a stretch to call it a "speciality bar" but I just purchased farmers walk bars/handles as my "second bar" purchase. Absolutely love them and offers something different than my normal lifting.
Another great video! My first specialty bar was the rackable titan curl bar. Last night I just ordered the Kabuki Transformer bar and am looking to add a cambered multi-grip bar for Christmas so I’ll be anxious to view the shootout video you’re putting together for those bars.
Great video. My list goes: Curl bar Deadlift bar Flat multi-grip bar Log press bar SSB Cambered bars, REP and Elitefts In that order. I am considering a trap bar. I also have 3 straight bars, Elitefts power bar, Synergee bearing bar, and a cheap landmine bar. Yes I have a problem and no I am not in counseling.
Bars ordered: first - Rogue Ohio second - Rogue Women's Bella bar (girlfriend uses it and I use it for landmines) third Rogue curl bar forth - Eleiko open trap bar (V1 with single handle)
I wanted to keep things simple with just a BoS powerlifting bar but my wife absolutely hates squatting with it, it roughs up her back and she can’t ever seem to get comfortable with it. Thanks to all your SSB videos I’ve convinced myself one of them will solve the problem and will probably pop on one as soon as something goes on sale
Great video as always. Heres the order I recommend buying specialty bars in....ez curl bar (cheap and versatile), multigrip bar (more variety thanks to the different handles and less stress on joints) or if you cannot afford it or don't have the space get a triceps bar (mini version of a multigrip bar), open trap bar, axle bar (grip strength), adjustable kettlebells (pair), ssb if you actually need it. And of course make sure to have a beater bar for the landmine and at least one pair of loadable dumbbell handles.
I'm heading down the specialty bar path now. Picked up the Titan SSB and have enjoyed it so far. Definitely eye-balling a Camber Bar and Open Trap bar for my next two. Excited to see the REP Open Trap Bar review before deciding.
Great vid, SSB is the only way my shoulders let me squat heavy. We've also gotten a lot of use out of Rogues 10KG youth bar, it's much more convenient than swinging around a 7' bar for many lifts.
I only have 2 specialty bars. 1. My first was a Rogue rackable curl bar. This bar also doubles as a pressing bar (bench and overhead) and allows a less pronated grip for these two lifts, sort of a poor man's multigrip bar. 2. My second bar was a Kabuki open trap bar. I like it because it gives me a more neutral grip hand position. I bought a cosmetic blemish version and I went up to Kabuki (40 miles or so) to pick it up so it got closer to the competition $ wise. 3. . . . My next (don't say that so loud!) SB will be a safety squat bar. Thanks to your reviews I think I'm going to sit on the new Rep SS bar until they have a pop sale or some special. This isn't a specialty bar but I also bought a Bella bar from Rogue, just for front squats. I use a crossed arms technique for this lift and the smaller diameter, shorter bar works great for these. The only drawback to using the Bella is the sleeve length which limits the number of plates you can use. Fortunately/Unfortunately I haven't exceeded the length limit yet. :(
Your videos are equal parts hilarious and informative! Nicely done! Anxiously anticipating the camber bar showdown, though I'm strongly leaning Rogue/Kabuki Kadillac to replace my traditional Football and Swiss (which I virtually never use) bars. Cheers
Texas power bar. Rogue curl bar, rack, dumbbells, bench. I also have titan leg extension/curl and a lat pulldown. That all youll ever need. Id love to have my lat pulldown added to the back of my rack like a rep ares, but the low row and double hook lat attachment arent my thing. They super messed up
What I have: - EZ curl bar (I have REPs) Going to buy: - Open Trap Bar - SSB Considering: - Cambered multi-grip bar I like all the REP offerings. P.S. I’m into bodybuilding and don’t do regular deadlifts (sumo/conventional). RDL/SLDLs, back extensions, and maybe trap bar deadlifts when I get mine are my main movements. Also, trap bar RDLs and bent over rows are great movements.
1. RACKABLE EZ Curl Bar, cause arms. 2. Kabuki Transformer Bar or SSB, cause shoulders are prone to injury and squatting is critical. 3. Farmers Walk Handles, cause traps, core, misery and grip. 4. Axle Bar, cause grip. 5. Deadlift Bar, cause you bought #4 to better your DL grip.
I fell off my back steps and fractured and dislocated my elbow and can no longer turn my hand from neutral, so all my lifting is now specialty bars and dumbbells- CAP Mega Hex Bar for Deadlifts, EliteFTS Yolk Bar for squats, Rogue multi grip bar for floor presses, and dumbbells for rows
Overall, a good list of priorities. Reassuring order of purchase. Matches my first two. Then came the Elite FTS SS Yoke bar for me. Next up will probably be the trap bar. Might go for a squat bar before a deadlift bar (I hate hitting the uprights.)
I have 1 speciality bar so far. My strategy is a bit different, I went for a bar that helps the lift I like the least (squat). Originally was going to go Rep SSB but managed to snag a Transformer bar for $300 off fb marketplace. I'm definitely enjoy squatting a lot more now.
I bought all my stuff at once during these black friday sales. I got a camber, safety squat, curl, I just need the open trap now. Well and that 300 dollar unlabeled prime handles set lol
Love this channel. Correct me if I’m wrong, the portion of your lovely better half military pressing the Kabuki is B roll, used before, and I only say that as she has the bar backwards as when I saw it before. The work Kabuki should face away/forward as that puts the handles correct. Btw, I have the kabuki but like the look and build of the new Rogue better. I own the Eleiko trap bar. Love their quality.
Dang Gluck 7 plate Hatfield squat?! Lol just kidding I have a football bar, SSB, deadlift bar, and a trap bar. They all add variation to my workouts. Great video y’all
Cambered football barbell i think is op but in my country it is very difficult to buy besides rogue but not ,they are thieves. Trap bar is very good if it is open at one side.
I have to say, the trap bar bit was kinda funny. Ive been using one now for about 7 months, and I've probably used it as much as my straight bar. And I've used it for pressing, and rows, not just deadlifting. It really is and cliche useful as people make it out to be.
I deadlift to strengthen my spinal errectors. For no other reasons. While my back training includes hypers on a 45deg bench Iwant to add a second exercise. And stiff legged deadlifts are perfect for that since good mornings will kill you.
I only have one specialty bar, and it's a Titan Fitness SS bar. My shoulders cannot handle the stress of a regular squat. It's the only way I can do them.
Great vid, Bro. My first bar was a Rep Sabre bar because I got it in a package deal from Rep along with my rack and 320 pounds of weight. Right after that I got a cheap used multigrip bar because I have bad shoulders. It is flat and so cheap that I have had to take a metal file to it to get rid of burs on the knurling. My most recent bar is a used trap bar that I got because my lower back is also bad. My next bar will probably be a replacement for my multigrip bar. I’d like a Marrs bar but I’m not ready to take out a new mortgage to get one. I know that you have a carefully gathered collection of dumbbells but do you plan on doing any reviews of adjustable dumbbells? I don’t have the money or space for a full set.
I used your affiliate and bought a pair of Rogue USA Aluminum collars. Dont know if U can tell but if U can please let me know if I did it right so I can use your affiliations in the future. My brother actually bought them I told him how. His name is Greg Hunt. Thnkx
My choices: 1. Elite FTS SSB Yoke Bar (still the king of ssb's in my opinion.) 2. Buffalo/Duffalo Bar (I use this all the time for comp squats and it has 100% carryover to straight bar for me) 3. Deadlift Bar (Texas bar is king here, still not sold on the Kabuki just yet) 4. Curl bars (Rogue is my choice here) 5. Kabuki transformer and Marrs bar (both luxury bars, but I really like both.) 6. I don't really care that much about trap bars.
first 3 bars I would want any kind of ssb or yoke bar any kind of cambered bar (e.g. buffalo) any bar that has a neutral grip (e.g. swiss bar, football bar) Not even fussy about which brand, just any access to these 3 would be nice.
I only have one specialty bar, and I do not intend on getting another. I bought an open trap bar because of its versatility compared with other speciality ones.
I think the biggest reason for a specialty bar is versatility, and the most versatile of these options are trap bars and cambered multi-grip bars so they (along with an ez-curl bar) would likely be my top choice for first few bars to purchase. It also doesn't hurt that I'm a REP simp and REP seems to have the best combination of budget + quality on all three bars.
Your first specialty bar was a curl bar, gungnir just released a curl bar, I see the hints the universe is throwing at me. Now, I just need the universe to provide about $700 to cover its suggestion. Rogue is good too, though. Your turn universe.
When you review the Rep open trap bar, can you mention what it feels like to squat with it? It seems like it could potentially be a more comfortable position than using a traditional bar (similar to an SSB, minus the handles) because of how the weight rests on it. Might give you one more reason to buy it as well… gotta find a way to justify spending more money while still getting the same results!
I’m only a couple months into owning a home gym and I’m trying to build up slowly. Right now I have loadable dumbbell handles and a cheap Olympic bar. If I had to choose one, should I get a hex trap bar, a curl bar, or a multi grip? I’m leaning towards the curl bar myself but I’m not sure.
Hi there. Is there a video about getting stress from the shoulders why I am benching. I have problems with my left shoulder. Does the stress on the shoulders go away because of the neutral grip or is it something else?
Neutral or angled grips can help. It could be your technique as well but that's impossible to determine without a video but the grips 5pm multi grip bars tend to help relieve joint stress.
I only have 2 specialty bars "right now." Ha! An SSB and an open trap bar. I don't know if I need another one, so I'll wait for you to convince me otherwise in a future video. BTW, Basement Brandon looks hot in a bikini! 😆
I'm in the market for a curl bar and I have no idea the specs to look for in a curl bar as far as tensile strength, is a shorter bar better, who makes the best bars. I like the gold sleeves on the bells of steel bar. Is that a good bar? I need some help here
Tensile strength and other cool to say specs don't matter much on a curl bar. It's about how the angles feel, finish, and maybe knurling. Xmark is a decent budget bar, then Rep's is a step up, and I like Rogue's the most.
@@GlucksGym Thnkx I will check them out. I dont think I will like the angles on the bells of steel curl bar and I see it is a lot shorter bar and shorter sleeve space but I think it's enough sleeve space if I use 25s. Tell Wyn Hello, yall make a great team and do a great job.

Thank you 😊
First real bar I bought was a Texas Power Bar in bare finish, 2-3 years ago. Love the patina. I wish they made curl bars because I like matchy matchy

Yes! Woooo! You've been here the whole ride too!
The Elite SS YOKE Bar is my favorite specialty bar- absolutely perfect balance- i hated using SS bars before trying this one and they converted me
What I have:
- EZ curl bar (I have REPs)
Going to buy:
- Open Trap Bar
- SSB
Considering:
- Cambered multi-grip bar
I like all the REP offerings.
P.S. I’m into bodybuilding and don’t do regular deadlifts (sumo/conventional). RDL/SLDLs, back extensions, and maybe trap bar deadlifts when I get mine are my main movements. Also, trap bar RDLs and bent over rows are great movements.

check out american barbell specialty bars. gotta say with my purchase of the 55lb t-grip double angle bar. u should try one of those.
For me, it was:
1. Rogue rackable e-coat curl bar
2. Kabuki Kadillac Bar
3. Kabuki Transformer Bar
4. Kabuki HD Trap Bar
Is transformer bar worth it? I got my Kadillac bar in the mail yesterday and seems legit so far.
@@David-dw2iq It is if you use it for multiple uses. It is not if only using it as an SSB bar.
The Kadi is made by Rogue now so that's something to keep in mind
@@GlucksGym actually bought mine after you made your video about it. So thank you for that!
😊 Haha that's awesome!
Followed you for your humor on this video alone
That is an awesome specialty bar collection. If you run out of room my 9 bar holder has 8 openings!!!!
Well done.
Thank you!
You're hilarious and obviously know what you're doing. Sub button pressed.
Your girl works out like a boss!
Please grab the Elite FTS cambered bar for the comparison
Overall, a good list of priorities. Reassuring order of purchase. Matches my first two. Then came the Elite FTS SS Yoke bar for me. Next up will probably be the trap bar. Might go for a squat bar before a deadlift bar (I hate hitting the uprights.)

Haha thanks. My friend found it at a Goodwill or some place a few years ago.
Great Video! Wonder if you could have an Open Hex Trap Bar vs an Hex Trap Bar for same price which one would you choose and why
Use the bottom grip on the trap bar, then you get more range like doing a dead lift.
I bought all my stuff at once during these black friday sales. I got a camber, safety squat, curl, I just need the open trap now. Well and that 300 dollar unlabeled prime handles set lol

Thank you! And that SSB squat was legit but it was really hard to pause in the same exact spot for the pic each time
Bought a curl bar first to save my wrist. Will likely pick up an SSB next to make squats easier on the body.
Cambered football barbell i think is op but in my country it is very difficult to buy besides rogue but not ,they are thieves. Trap bar is very good if it is open at one side.

1:18 - is that a type of curl bar? - looks like a leg extension ? Thank you.
That's an XII XI lever curl bar. Expensive vs others it's the best price to qualify ratio.
My choices:
1. Elite FTS SSB Yoke Bar (still the king of ssb's in my opinion.)
2. Buffalo/Duffalo Bar (I use this all the time for comp squats and it has 100% carryover to straight bar for me)
3. Deadlift Bar (Texas bar is king here, still not sold on the Kabuki just yet)
4. Curl bars (Rogue is my choice here)
5. Kabuki transformer and Marrs bar (both luxury bars, but I really like both.)
6. I don't really care that much about trap bars.
first 3 bars I would want
any kind of ssb or yoke bar
any kind of cambered bar (e.g. buffalo)
any bar that has a neutral grip (e.g. swiss bar, football bar)
Not even fussy about which brand, just any access to these 3 would be nice.

What is the curling device @1:14? Got a link?
Lever curl bar by XII:XI Fitness. They've gone out of business but last I knew had a few left on their site
Let us know what specialty bars you'd buy and in what order!
Black widow safety squat bar, Elite FTS American cambered bar, Hex trap bar
This guy is hillarious---"I want to put my hands where ever I want to on this shaft"
My order,: Kubuki Trap bar, Kaddilac bar, Duffalo bar, Titan Safety Squat bar, Rogue EZ Curl Bar, Rogue Olympic bar. Rogue Deadlift Bar
First specialty bar has to be the curl bar. So far my only one, but I really like the idea of an ssb.
I hope you keep your treadmill!
But why! There's so many other things I could get like another treadmill.!
Power Bar, cheap beater bar, curl, light aluminum training rackable, loadable db, axle.
I refuse to spend over $100 on a specialty bar so haven't found a decent trap bar quite yet
Your first specialty bar was a curl bar, gungnir just released a curl bar, I see the hints the universe is throwing at me. Now, I just need the universe to provide about $700 to cover its suggestion.
Rogue is good too, though. Your turn universe.
@gluck do you have the matte black REP crossmembers?
Yep, though I technically have some metallic black as well but they're not on the rack.
What is the horseshoe shaped bar in the top right corner of this video's thumbnail called?
I'm all in for this video. I'm assuming Gluck's not dropping specialty bars from 100 feet.
Yeah.... Unfortunately we had to cut that part 😔

Absolutely, if you could please just add footage of you squatting with every piece of equipment you review, I would appreciate it.
I’m only a couple months into owning a home gym and I’m trying to build up slowly. Right now I have loadable dumbbell handles and a cheap Olympic bar. If I had to choose one, should I get a hex trap bar, a curl bar, or a multi grip? I’m leaning towards the curl bar myself but I’m not sure.
a good olympic bar then a trap bar
Hi there. Is there a video about getting stress from the shoulders why I am benching. I have problems with my left shoulder. Does the stress on the shoulders go away because of the neutral grip or is it something else?
Neutral or angled grips can help. It could be your technique as well but that's impossible to determine without a video but the grips 5pm multi grip bars tend to help relieve joint stress.

i do deadlift 500 pounds! on a normal bar
Nothing builds muscle better than a normal bar DL
What are you wearing on your shins and why do you wear it for deadlift?
They're just Wynie's old knee sleeves. They keep my shins from getting beat up.
Slightly off topic, but does anyone here know anything about fray fitness? They have this functional trainer/squat rack that looks pretty dope.

Oh ok, I click on it in the description and just buy it from there. I was trying to put your code in on my desktop and I could not get it to work. A discount would be nice but I also want to support your channel as I learn so much about equipment from your videos and they are entertaining.
I appreciate that. As we get larger we might be able to pressure companies for a discount (we're working on it 😁).
