I’ve heard good things about that Vulcan Standard Bar! Good point on the landmine – Literally any 7ft bar will work fine on a landmine. I’ll have to add a note about that.

I bought a Vulcan Strengh standard bar for around $300. Excellent bright zinc coated bar with sintered bronze bushings with lifetime warranty and designed for used in commercial gyms. I also have a “cheap” academy sport’s bar that I got as a 300 lbs Olympic weight set on clearance for $120. The difference is night and day. I only use it in my landline attachment. I bought the set for the weight plates which are okay for the price.
