    Whoever complained about Adrian's accent and his pronunciation of 'TiTan' has a 'tight end' and needs to loosen up. As a NJ native I can affirmatively say it's not bad and I've heard some bad regional accents from my own state. I'm within an hour from NYC and in close proximity to Long Island and Staten Island it can be A LOT worse... Sorry @NoFate247

    Much of my gym equipment is from Titan, including my 6-post rack. For the most part, I have been very pleased with my Titan equipment as the price/quality ratio has been good. My experience with the only Titan bar I have ever owned, the Blues City Power Bar, was very different. It was priced similarly to the Rogue OPB but I went with Titan because it had good specs, was also made in the US, and was 28.5 mm, which I prefer over 29mm. One of the sleeves had a slight catch in the rotation so I took the sleeve off to clean and lubricate it. That is when I discovered that the outer bushing was not Bronze but instead steel. There were only four removable pieces inside the sleeve. These were the retaining ring, the end cap, a C-type retaining washer, and a steel bushing. The bushing closest to the shaft did appear to be bronze but the outer bushing was just steel (I verified this with a magnet). After that experience, I lost trust in Titan bars. If they provide false information about what is in the sleeve, then how could you trust what type of steel the bar is made from.

    Glad to see someone give a review of the Elite Series bars. I almost bought one when they came out but wasn’t brave enough to pull the trigger. Great video. Would love to see a review of the Fat Bar from or their 45lb power bar Wright Equipment. Or maybe El Gordo from EliteFTS. EliteFTS has some interesting specialty bars but I have never seen anything about them besides the SS Yoke and Multigrip bars.

  • @Two_Names
    @Two_Names5 ай бұрын

    I actually just got the 72" technique bar because of the space constraints for my home gym setup and because I'm still well away from needing the extra sleeve length. So far my initial impressions are positive. I have to remember to adjust my math a little but the barbell does what I ask it to do, is rackable, and has enough grip in the knurling to be workable. The fact that it's $100 made it a nice entry-level barbell that I can work with now, and help teach the wife with, before space allows for a proper Olympic barbell.

    Love the details you put in to these reviews like the info about white labelling, nobody else does that and it's great for us equipment nerds 🤓 What are your thoughts on the Philosophy Gym Olympic Barbell available at the big online retailers? I know it's pretty much an unknown brand, but it seems like a really good value mixed-use bar with 190K tensile strength, 1,500lb capacity, cerakote shaft, and hard chrome sleeves in multiple rackable lengths. The specs also say it has a 28mm shaft but some reviews say it's more like 28.5mm. But in any case, seems pretty comparable to the Titan Elite Series Olympic bar, Cerakote Rogue Ohio Bar, and Rep Colorado Bar in specs but costs less. Would love to see more content in general on these smaller brands that seem to offer really good value! As the bench king 👑 I really would love to see your thoughts on the Keppi Bench 5000 too, been seeing lots of positive comments on it from people in home gym communities & online reviews but we need a trusted voice to issue a definitive opinion!

    Another great in depth video as always. I have two Titan bars and am happy with both. The 6ft rackable barbell for the crappy Cap 3x3 squat rack in the living room (bad weather gym as i like to call it). The other is the performance power bar by Titan for the detached, uninsulated garage gym with a leaky roof and strategically placed tarps. I use it on a 3x3 half rack from fitness gear (dicks sporting goods).

    ACKTCHEWALLY. The /t/ phoneme is almost universally turned into a glottal stop in English dialects when following a stressed syllable and preceding an unstressed one. So /tai?ən/ is perfectly fine. People who pronounce the middle /t/ in words like 'Titan,' 'Mountain,' and 'Kitten' do so conscientiously or as learned behavior and NOT because it is part of modern English phonology. So, you're good Gluck. Also, good review. I've been looking forward to someone reviewing the new Ti?un bars.

    My only Titan experience has been positive. I wanted a 4 kg kettlebell just to have a complete set, and my preferred vendor (RKC) hasn’t had their 4 kg in stock for like a year, and the Titan seemed to be the closest to RKC aesthetically. So ordered it, was received promptly, and very pleased with the quality.

    I find it impossible to recommend Titan for barbells. Especially when the Rogue Boneyard exists. Their rejects are better than what most companies call first quality. There are some good deals in there and an occasional steal or 2. My stainless 28mm EU bar was $350 with tax and shipping.....or half of what a non Boneyard version was. Even saw an all stainless Pyrros bar for $325 which is over a 50% savings. Shop wisely garage gym family.
