    The Starting Strength Bar - gets 5lbs heavier every time it’s unracked

  • @CaptJackAubreyOfTheRoyalNavy

    Tip for owning a bare steel bar: don't let chalk cake up on the knurling for very long, or it's a breeding ground for rust, especially if the bar will be kept in a less insulated/more humid environment, like a garage. Brush any chalk accumulation off the bar after every workout. It only takes a minute. Use a nice, stiff bristled nylon brush, or a brass bristle brush. If you let too much rust accumulate, the rust plus the intensive process of cleaning it off can wear down/soften the intensity of the knurl quite significantly. I learned this the hard way.

      I left mine standing in the corner of me bedroom for a year. When I finally decided to use it, the end of the bar that was pointed up had collected lots of dust and was rusted. Houston humidity is brutal.

    For those wondering, from Rip on the forums:
    "How is the new Starting Strength Barbell going to differ from the Rogue B&R Bar? "
    "Basically the same bar, slightly different knurl, in 28.5mm. The slightly smaller diameter makes it a better general-purpose bar than the fatter 29mm B&R. "

    I keep my basement humidity around 50% year-round because I have musical instruments there in addition to my rack and barbells/plates. My current Rogue bar is zinc coated (shaft and sleeves) and no problems with corrosion or rust. Is 50% humidity too high for this bare steel SS bar w/r/t corrosion or rust?

    • @CaptJackAubreyOfTheRoyalNavy
      @CaptJackAubreyOfTheRoyalNavy 5 років тому +2

      Oil is not needed as long as you brush any chalk buildup out of the knurling after every workout, and perhaps give the entire surface a nice brushing every so often to disrupt any surface buildup of rust. Black oxide buildup is good, orange rust buildup is bad.

    Is it whippy or stiff?
    What's the sleeve length on each bar?
    What's the diameter of the bar?
    Are you not meant to squat with the lighter two bars since there's no center knurl?
