Why choose a 1.55m barbell?
If you're working out in a confined space, a 1.55m bar is perfect, as it's shorter and easier to store than our other bars. Combined with our weight bench with folding stanchions (ref: 8595564), it gives you a complete workout and frees up space after your workout!

How do I store my 1.55m barbell?
Wipe your bar with a damp cloth after your sets, especially if you're not wearing gloves. Then store your bar in a dry place: moisture is your bar's enemy.

We've also developed a storage rack (ref: 8788246) for you to store your bars and weights.

Our coach shares his exercise ideas for the 1.55m barbell
Exercises to build muscle mass:
- Bust Rowing 4x8-12 repetitions
- Incline Press 4x8-12 repetitions
Exercises to tone muscle mass:
- Military Press 4x12-15 repetitions
Start at the low end of the repetition range and leave a 2-rep margin. Increase by one repetition each week until you reach the high range. You can then increase the load and start again from the low range.
