Same day my echo bar is supposed to land. They lost the first one. ??
What did you buy?
And if they start an Aggro Monster line, bells etc. I might have to replace stuff on general principle.
Barbell Which Ohio Power Bar? 20 KG or 3X AGGRO?

OH BUDDY! I'm excited for you! You have to tell us how it goes when you get it.

If I use it for squats, I'm going to need to build up some trap calluses.

It has arrived....
As you can see from my blackened fingers and the smudges on the cerakote, it's a bit oily.

Excellent purchase. Simple. Sinister. Striking.

Thanks.
Barbell curl (in the squat rack, of course) already up 5 kg just because I felt mean.
Yes, good to know.
Make sure post Aggro Monster session you do some box breathing prior to going out in public.

Just did 3 sets of relatively light (100 kg), moderate volume (12-15 reps) RDLs for 3 sets.
Not painful.
No callus tearing.
Bar felt solid, grippy.
Either I have more resilient hands and grip than average, or a higher knurl tolerance, or people just love to hype up how scary this bar is.
Love it -- no regrets, would recommend to others, unless you're the kind of lifter who wears gloves.

good marketing
Just don't let them grow into the real of Vulcan-level calluses.

Star Trek Vulcan or Roman god Vulcan?
Roman god. I was playing with your mention of Hephaestus. Clearly not well.
Handy fellow, but being a Greek god and all, hands were probably soft like a babies.

Aphrodite probably made him pumice his forge-built calluses down before she'd even consider a date night.
Worth it.
