However, for your heavy lifters you should get bars with a PSI of at least 135,000. If you have athletes who are really into Olympic lifting and do overhead lifts, you should consider a bar with 185,000 PSI. <br>Special Features: The more advanced a lifter gets with Olympic lifting, the more important good sleeve rotation becomes. Needle bearings generally add $50 to $70 to the cost of the bar and should be a main consideration for your heavy lifters. A feature you will want to avoid when choosing a power clean bar is center knurling-this could cause problems when lifting and racking the bar. The best bars for Olympic style lifts have a 28mm circumference and are made from flexible steel. For this type f lifting a bars ability to store and release energy is very important, especially when you start getting more weight on the bar.<br>Price: For beginning-to-mid-level lifters a good price range for a bar with a yield strength of 105,000 to 125,000 PSI is $90 to $120 (without needle bearings or center knurling). If you find a bar for less than that, it usually means the bar has components that fall apart easily, such as shoulder bolts, or they have misrepresented its true PSI. Again, I would avoid such a bar. <br>For your heavy lifters, a good range for a bar with a yield strength of 135,000 to 165,000 PSI is $130 to $150 (without needle bearings and center knurling). If you want needle bearings, add about $50 to the price. <br><br>Choosing a <br>Bench Press Bar<br><br>When choosing a bar for your benches, it is good to know that the dynamic demands on your bar are not nearly as extreme as when doing squats or Olympic style lifts. Your bench bar, however, should be well constructed and have fairly deep knurling to assure a good grip. 30mm or even 32mm bars are fine when benching.<br>PSI: For all athletes who lift under 400 pounds, general-purpose bars with a yield strength of only 105,000 to 125,000 PSI are fine. However, for those heavy lifters who bench over 400 pounds, you should get bars with a PSI of at least 135,000. <br>Special Features: You do not need any special features for your bench bars.br>Price: Bars with a yield strength of 105,000 to 125,000 PSI are $90 to $120 (without needle bearings or center knurling). For your heavy lifters, a good range for bars with a yield strength of 135,000 to 165,000 PSI is $130 to $150 (without needle bearings and center knurling). <br><br>Choosing a <br>Deadlift Bar<br><br>BFSrecommends using hex bars for doing deadlifts.
