Written on the day after the election, in my home office
There's a lot I could write about today, but instead check this out:
Love the pic- looking at it brings me peace.
BTW, tag @fringesport or #fringesport in your pics. We love seeing them!
Okay.
Why do we love barbells?
Simply put, they are the best solution to progressively loading exercises and for allowing the movement of maximal weight.
Dumbbells, kettlebells?
They're great- but they are cumbersome or impossible to load in small increments- and really heavy 'bells are both expensive and have relatively narrow usages, eg. heavy dumbbells are used by <1% of people at the gym, while barbells can be loaded for almost anyone's strength and skill level.
Plus, if you're into barbells, there's just something about gripping the knurling and doing some violence in the gym.
Honestly, I lift on every (20kg) bar we make- and I love them all. But here's a quick cheat sheet.
And great news, all the above are 10% off with free shipping. But act fast, we're running low.
Lift heavy and love each other,
PK
