{"product_id":"ez-olympic","title":"EZ Olympic","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you are putting together a space that has to work every day rather than look good once, the EZ Olympic is worth a close look. It forms part of our barbells lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn plain terms, this is a barbell intended for regular use rather than occasional. Full specifications are shown on this page and in the product images.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it suits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThink home platforms and commercial floors, and barbell work across squats, presses and pulls.

Worth comparing before you settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the bar down after sessions and brush the knurling periodically — chalk and sweat together are what corrode a bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor context on how often adults should be training muscle groups, the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/physical-activity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"\u003eWorld Health Organization physical activity guidelines\u003c\/a\u003e are a sensible, independent starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey points\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: Barbells \u0026amp; Bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: EZB77\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: new unless the listing states otherwise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will find related equipment under \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/free-weights\"\u003eFree Weights\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/barbells-and-bars\"\u003eBarbells \u0026amp; Bars\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/accessories\"\u003eAccessories\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/weight-plates\"\u003eWeight Plates\u003c\/a\u003e — worth a look before deciding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe practical gap between light and heavy-duty barbells is not the badge, it is the rating: frame gauge, bearing quality and how easily wear parts can be replaced.
