Product Description

Rogue 28MM Training Bar - Black Zinc

The Rogue 28MM Training Bar is designed, machined, and assembled at the Rogue factory in Columbus, Ohio using the same steel shaft and uniform knurl pattern as our Olympic WL Bar. In place of the Oly Bar’s bearing sleeves, however, the Training Bar is assembled with bronze bushings in the style of the Rogue Ohio Bar. The result is a more cost-efficient, intermediate bar for athletes who still want the look and feel of a competition-ready Olympic barbell.

The quality U.S. steel used in the 28MM Training Bar meets a minimum tensile strength of 190 KSI, and each shaft is individually tested for straightness to within 0.015” (0.38mm). The bar is finished with Black Zinc shaft with Bright Zinc Sleeves.

  • Lifetime Warranty Against Bending*

*Warranty against bending does not cover any bar which has been damaged due to negligent or faulty use, alteration, maintenance, storage or handling by the user. Negligent or faulty use includes abusive dropping of the bar (i.e., dropping the bar on a box, bench, spotter arms or pins in a power rack, excessive dropping with insufficient or damaged bumpers, or excessive dropping with iron plates, and similar usage). Any specific issues regarding a Rogue product with which a customer is not satisfied will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Rogue has a replacement rate of less than 0.0002 on bars. We have found that most problems with bars we replace are related to abusive use rather than manufacturing or materials issues.

F SCALE™

The F Scale™ is a durability scale for barbells based on functional testing at stresses similar to what barbells experience when being dropped from overhead. Bars that have been treated with Rogue Work Hardening (RWH™) are designated by having an R in their F Rating™. For more information on F Scale™ click here.

OXIDATION RATE

The resistance of a barbell to oxidation depends on the type of steel and the coating. Barbells at the lower end of the spectrum will require more care and maintenance to preserve their appearance than barbells at the upper end of the spectrum.

Amazing Quality. Rogue is #1 🇺🇸
It just feels great! I love the amount of whip it has relative to its length. I’d definitely recommend upgrading to the stainless steel version if you want good spin on the collars, but this works perfectly for me.

Great for Weightlifting
I got this bar as a birthday gift after looking at several options. I am training exclusively weightlifting (clean+jerk, snatch) and had been using a Synergee bar at my local gym. The Synergee bar is a bearing bar, so the spin is excellent but the whip is not good. I got the Rogue Training Bar mostly for a bar with better whip. Despite the Rogue Training bar having bushings, not bearings, I’ve noticed no significant difference in spin compared to a bearing bar in training the oly lifts. The whip on this bar is fantastic. The feel in the hands is great too. Not overly aggressive knurling, just right. If you have the $$ to put out for a competition style bar, do it. But if you want a solid oly weightlifting bar without making your kids go hungry, get this bar.

Amazing for Olympic lifts
I was previously using a barbell designed for power lifting but I needed to change it to do more olympic lifts. I absolutely love my training barbell. It makes the lifts so much easier. The knurling is very light, the way the bar moves is extremely smooth and accommodating. I honestly cant recommend this barbell enough, it is 100% worth the price and its also a very sexy barbell.
