Hi guys and gals,
I've been using a Rogue Bar 2.0 for all my lifts for the past few years. I bought it thinking I might learn to do olympic lifts, power cleans, and such, but it turns out I mostly just use the bar for deadlifting and occasional overhead press.
For reference, I DLed 455 earlier this year and would like to start training with an eye to getting at or above 500. This is the only decent bar I've used (previous was a cheap-o CAP), so I have nothing to compare it to, but I was considering making an order from Rogue and wondering if I should spring for a powerlifting-specific bar since I'm going to be biting the bullet on freight shipping for this order anyway.
