What thickness of thick bar for off-season


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a set of 2" as well as 2 3/8" napalm nightmare handles.

 

I have no idea what the next comp will have and it won't be until June (no events are announced).

The last couple of competitions in my country have had both a thicker and thinner handle event

 

In your opinion, is it better to focus on a thicker fat bar? Will thicker bar be better for an "off-season". Or would the 2" be better to work on maximum weight. Ideally I would do both, but the program I want to do only really has room for one.

Not sure on this but if you use the 2 3/8 bar in your workouts would that make the 2 inch bar easier?

That is my logic...but I don't know if that is how it pans out in the real world

If I was going to do just one I'd stick to 2".
