Any Rogue Ohio Bar owners

I haven’t used one, but I know it has a reputation of having insane knurling. Hope you like having awesome grip. Whenever I own a home and build a gym, the Ohio Elephant bar is what I’m buying.

I have regular Ohio in bare steel. It's the best bar I have used, bar none. Much better than my Texas power bar.

The knurling is not deep like a Texas bar but very very tacky. Doesn't rip the hands at all.

I prefer to squat with no center knurl so the Ohio bar never leaves the rack unless going for Max effort on do, then I will take it out.

Overall would buy over any other bar. Stainless would be best imo but bare steel is a close second. Can't comment on the other finishes.

It is hard to stay motivated at home.

If I didn't have my competitions to motivate me, I don't think I'll do that well at home. The "alpha" pack at the gym always motivated me to lift harder than normal.

I also have better equipment at my house (in regards to powerlifting).

I love my home gym and I love my Ohio bar. Coming from a gym, the knurling shocked me at first, but I adjusted a week in. It's handled 400-600 pretty regularly for 3.5 years with no issues.

I hated crowds and hated the bs equipment at commercial gyms. I have all my own stuff and get in there and do it. If you need motivation, get good music instead of the top 40 dance mix at LA fitness.

Its going to be mostly for my weekend workouts or when i get home and can't slip away to the gym bc of the kids.

Also it is going to let me incorporate 200-400 meter runs into my crossfit workouts again.

The set up we have on base does not let me do that.

After I body slam you. You got to buy my motz sticks

I'm also looking at the operator bar as well. Looks like the Ohio bar with Cerakote finish but just in military colors.

Im going to get the Operator bar, its the Ohio bar but painted in camo colors

yea im going to get the rack with the pull up bar eventually

what all did you get? post pictures when it comes in, i love some equipment porn.
