squat bar?

[t3c]

Anyone use a regular olympic 45lb bar for squats and deadlifts?

this is what i use. supposedly the buffalo bar is great for squatting because it's easier on your shoulders. it has a "gentle curve". i just have a regular ol' 45 lb bar.

The buffalo bar is even better for good mornings. Sooooooooooo much easier on the elbows and shoulders.

I use that bar b/c it's the only one we have in our gym.

Is the buffalo bar allowed in meets for squats????

I only use a regular olympic bar. I try not to use the one with the knurling in the middle- it rips my back up.

I use a regular Texas Powerbar. I have switched to using a manta ray lately to be easier on my shoulders.

No, the buffalo bar is not allowed in a meet.
