XS Sports 25mm / 1" Spring Weight Clamp Collars Clips Barbell Dumbbell Quick Release

Product Information

Since then, the market has been flooded with every type of collar you can imagine, even some that connect to your phone via Bluetooth to measure the velocity of the bar.

We’ve run over these in our truck, thrown them across the gym, and beat the ever-living tar out of them and they still look and work great.Weight bar clips are not only used for traditional weightlifting but also in functional training and high-intensity workouts where quick and frequent weight changes are common. They are made out of the same 6061 Aircraft Grade Billet Aluminum mentioned above, which makes the frame of these OSO collars truly feel mighty, yet light. Package Contents: 4 metal barbell clips, these barbell clips can help you fix and maintain a stable center of gravity, making it the best partner for your fitness weightlifting tools. OSO CM-1 Metal Collars: These are the same design as the CP-1 Collars but are made out of aluminum instead. For most people, we’d suggest spending a bit more, but if this is the most you want to spend on collars and still want an aluminum design, these are your best bet.

Only 20 years ago and pretty much your only option for securing your Olympic plates to the barbell were those often frustrating two-inch spring collars.

Whether it's for a standard or an Olympic barbell, the right clip will provide a secure hold without damaging the barbell's sleeve. This makes them particularly useful if you’re working with a partner that requires more/less weight than you or if you’re following a routine that asks you to adjust your weights regularly. LBS of the Rogue Aluminum makes barbell math a little easier perhaps, but most people don’t take the weight of the collars into account unless they are under competition standards.

For most people, I like the Rogue Ohio Bar the best for a 20kg option and the Rogue Bella Bar for a 15kg option. If you’re on a budget but still want a high-quality collar then the OSO Mighty Collars are an excellent option. If you’re a recreational lifter who just likes to squat and press with light to moderate weight once in a while, then the whip of the bar doesn’t really matter.This makes them a convenient option for routines that require you to regularly adjust the weight you’re lifting if you’re working with a partner that lifts slightly more/less than you.

Although these can detach from the plastic collar, we’ve found them to be a great option for holding the bar and are vastly superior when compared to the cheap collars on the market at this task. And it doesn’t matter whether you are training with 1" standard bars or Olympic bars, we have QR collars to suit both, including collars in classic Mirafit orange and black. PRx Performance Talon Barbell Collars: These are actually some of the most unique barbell collars that we have used.

They’re easy to use and if they do come loose you will feel the weight plates start to slide, which means you can safely put down the bar and readjust the collar to avoid any mishaps. These collars are unique in that they also accommodate smaller specialty bar sleeves, so that is why we’re okay recommending them even though they slide on Olympic barbells more often than the competition.
