Practice Technique with Confidence.
The Valor Fitness OB-72T Technique Training Barbell gives beginners and developing athletes a lightweight way to learn Olympic lifting mechanics before moving to a heavier steel bar.
Its 72-inch length and 28mm shaft diameter provide a familiar Olympic-bar layout, while the light 15-pound aluminum construction keeps early practice approachable.
Light passive knurling, dual knurl-free guide marks, and no center knurl support comfortable, consistent hand placement during repeated technique work.
The grooved 9-inch sleeves accept 2-inch Olympic plates. The bar is rated to 100 pounds, but Valor recommends transitioning to a steel bar around 60 pounds and avoiding max-effort lifts.
