Customer Reviews

Alexandre D.

Très satisfait de la qualité des produits. Les finitions sont excellentes et l’ensemble donne une impression de matériel haut de gamme. Je recommande vivement ATLETICA.

Michał A.

Great quality!

Rémy B.

Les équipements sont très bonnes qualités. Le seul point négatif est que les délai de livraison sont très longs même incertain, alors que les produits sont disponibles à la commande.

Kevin W.

Sehr stabile und hochwertige Langhantelstange. Sie hält die angegebenen Belastungen problemlos aus und macht genau das, was sie soll. Liegt gut in der Hand und wirkt insgesamt sehr robust. Kleiner Hinweis: Vor der ersten Nutzung sollte man die Enden kurz reinigen, da dort noch etwas metallischer Staub vorhanden sein kann. Danach aber absolut einwandfrei. Klare Kaufempfehlung.

Michael P.

Top Langhantel. Ideal zum olympischen Heben mit gutem Whip / Federung. Rändelung ist gut und griffig. Die Mittelrändelung ist merklich vorhanden aber nicht aggressiv , gibt gut Kontrolle und stört dabei nicht die Haut.

Torben K.

Klasse Langhantelstange. Sehr wertig. Ich benutze SIe bei jedem Training.

Dennis V.

A grid bar with a great grip.

Marvin K.

Fabian H.

Super Hantelstange. Macht Spaß zu nutzen. Rändelung ist eher etwas stumpf für einen angenehmen Griff hat dennoch ausreichend Grip. Lagerung läuft sehr leicht. Leider gibt das Label auf der Stange nach ca. 1 Monat schon etwas den Geist auf. (Ich nutze auch einen Nackenschutz, dass muss man hier dazu sagen) Ist aber nichts was mich stört.

Franz T.

Gute Qualität

Tom E.

Top Produkt. Kann ich nur empfehlen.

Dennis K.

Obwohl ich schon eine Menge Langhanteln, auch sehr namhafter Hersteller, in den Händen hielt, begeistert und überrascht mich die T1000 enorm. Für den Preis bekommt man ein herausragend gutes Produkt für die Ewigkeit. Ganz egal ob für CrossFit, Powerlifting oder Bodybuilding - mit diesem Traum aus gehärtetem Chrom kann man sicherlich bis in den professionellen Bereich hinein trainieren. Für mich ist die LH das zentrale und wichtigste Sportgerät in meinem im Aufbau befindlichen Homegym. Ich wollte hier Qualität, und ich habe sie bekommen. Ein R8-BlackHawk ist bereits bestellt. Eine B6 wird noch dazu kommen. Damit zusammen werde ich ganz bestimmt kein Studio mehr vermissen.

Marcel R.

Unglaublich gute Langhantel! Ist absolut erstklassig verarbeitet, fühlt sich super an und lässt sich noch besser mit trainieren :) Bin mehr als zufrieden!

1. What sets the Alpha Barbell apart?

The Alpha is our weightlifting barbell with 2,600 lb load capacity, 8 needle bearings and 20 mm copper bushings for perfect spin. The barbell is made of high-quality alloyed steel and offers an impressive tensile strength of 200,000 PSI.

2. How do weightlifting and powerlifting bars differ?

Weightlifting bars are specially developed for Olympic weightlifting. They offer more spin thanks to high-quality ball bearings or bushings, which allow the weight plates to rotate especially easily. This reduces the strain on wrists and forearms during dynamic exercises like the Clean & Snatch. They also feature more whip - that is, targeted flexibility - which supports athletes during the lift and enables a smoother, more powerful movement.

Powerlifting bars, on the other hand, are deliberately constructed to be stiffer. In exercises like squats, bench press and deadlift, maximum stability is crucial in order to move heavy loads safely. Less flexibility ensures that the bar remains stable even under the highest load. The particularly coarse knurling ensures optimal grip and prevents slipping - a decisive factor for safety and maximum performance in powerlifting.

3. What does the PSI value mean?

The PSI value indicates the load capacity and flexibility of the bar. Weightlifting bars (Alpha) are more flexible in order to absorb impacts on the shoulders during Clean & Jerk exercises. Powerlifting bars like the Beta or Gamma are stiffer in order to hold extreme loads without bending.

4. How do I store my barbell correctly?

It is best to store it horizontally on a wall mount like our Blade or the J-hooks of a Power Rack. Do not leave it lying on the floor with weights on it permanently.

5. Which weight plates do I need?

For weightlifting, we recommend Bumper Plates, ideal for safely dropping the barbell. For classic strength training, Gripper Plates are suitable, as they are especially easy to handle thanks to their grip openings.

A combination of small and large plates is important in order to be able to train flexibly. A 245 lb set is initially completely sufficient for most beginners.

6. What can you train with barbells?

The barbell is a fundamental training element with which almost every muscle group can be trained. Especially through basic exercises like squats, deadlifts, bench press and shoulder press, functional strength, coordination and muscle growth are efficiently promoted. It has long been established in both competitive and recreational sports and offers numerous training options thanks to its versatility.
