Just got the bar. Put some 25 bumpers on it. Lay several bands under the plate. Easy to clip in and out. The added bumpers give you a good starting position. The pre stretch of the band is great. No slack. No weird deadlifts. Bicep curls, overhead all great with added weights. A little weight definitely makes a difference. Easier to micro load. Killer bar.
Mike just erased my comment saying that:
barbell chain collar pair (amazon, gorilla strength) + karabiners can do the same thing with any barbell or dumbbell you already own. Just shop around people. $300 for a micro bar my a*s.
Pretty sure, your original comment is there. And just so everyone knows, other reviews are coming soon related to this.
The add on barbell chain collars suck unless paired to a rack and pins. Even the short barbells are heavier. The Nexus Bar is it’s own thing. It’s expensive. Save or not. Nobody forcing anyone to buy it. X3 is expensive and very problematic. Harambe is very expensive but works awesome.
@@hybridresistance no, it isn't
@@sprocketdogs4964 What are you saying? Chain collars are just like safety collars, only with a little ring underneath where you hang the carabiner with chains. Instead of chains, you can hang bands as easy, and attach loop of band under footplate. The only thing special about harambe is the price, and not in a good way.
I been waiting on this bar. Thanks for the reviews. I have made alot of purchases based off of your reviews. I love seeing new resistance band equipment
Thanks man, appreciate it. You guys tell me what you want to review and I’ll check it out.
Looks awesome. Will definitely pick one up when I eventually get some weight plates.
Thanks for your review on this bar I really loved your different things you did with it my mind is really moving with what I've seen you do on review at least with excises and the chest press with band's and weight s Wowww!!!!! My next purchase will be this!!!!!!
Thanks Kerry. Great to you hear you enjoyed the review.
Great Review. I am thinking about getting this myself.
I was debating....I'm getting one now. Thx!
I’m so happy to see a hip thrust on the diagrams from clench. Solid bar and review.
Thanks so much.
@@hybridresistance thank you
Got mine and absolutely LOVE it I can't say it enough how great this bar is
Love to hear it brother.
How much did you get it for? I checked the website and they have a sale going right now and with his code you get another 15% off
One of the cons for me personally is that you can only use Olympic plates. Clench fitness has said if they get enough interest they will make one for the smaller hole plates. If they do then I will think about getting one.

😂👍
Edit: The internet is amazing. Love the ideas that people toss out here.
Thanks for that.
Noticed that even with the longer bar, it was possible to double up the band. The band was mounted on the hooks identical to the X-3 short bar.
I like these bars for deadlifts and squats, but for curls, I prefer to get my elbows out in front of my body and up a bit so I can get peak contraction at the top of the lift while still having resistance at full extension at the bottom of the lift. It mimicks cable curls, which I believe are superior to barbell curls. Great review, as I have had my eye on this bar.
Hey Mike, great video and love your channel! I have that Geku Amazon bar currently, and use clench bands and clench footplate. Would you recommend the upgrade to the Clench Bar over the Geku bar? Also know you like X3 as well and have considered getting that one as well.
Clench for sure is an upgrade over Geku.
I love all the technology that is being developed with resistance bands! In 10 years, resistance bands will be KING!
Hybrid everything 😂
Thanks for all the great reviews!
Not sure if you’ve ever addressed this before or not; but with your preference for using bars, why not use the tube style bands instead?
Seems like they’d be easier to clip on and off the bar carabiners?
You basically, can't load up as much for certain exercises and just personal preference for using loop bands. The clip on option is something that you'll see featured soon.
Nice review. Clench makes some nice products and I have been buying their stuff almost since their beginning. That looks to be a very nice bar but not something that I will not be purchasing mostly because I don't have any Olympic size plates to use with it. All of the weight plates that I own, have the 1" centers and I don't plan on buying any plates with the larger holes because I just don't have the room to store them or want to spend the money to buy them.

Already have Harambe bar, but considering getting this one just to incorporate actual weights. People are always selling plates for cheap on FB marketplace.
Also check out the collar hooks and F2 Training system videos as well. All can take on weights, but have their own unique pros / cons.
I need an individual carabiner with similar dimensions.
Very interesting like the design and the ability to attach plates . This seems like a band system I want. This and harambe are in my consideration. But I do like weight plates can give you small resistance improvements

@@Nikolarasification1 I agree the DYI option might be the best but will it hold up to all the force
@@mrqualityreviewer4752 The gorilla strength product (not that other cheap staff in amazon) is rated for 500 pounds each, 1,000 total, based on the info on the site. It could be bull, but its a lot, and this is a good company selling strongman type of staff, there is nothing light about those chains. Plus the karabiner I m using with it is a steel delta karabiner originally used for fishing, resisting thousands of pounds. I see your skepticism, but you have it backwards. Imagine you buy this bar, and after a couple year at best of using the Silver Rogue Monster Band with it, its "prototype" Karabiner of course breaks. How are you going to replace it? And the bar it self you are buying is a much cheaper version of any bar a half-lifter has in their home. Thats why its so "surprisingly" light.
@@Nikolarasification1 is this the product you’re talking about? What is the brand you’re referring to?
@@hybridresistance The product itself is not really something to go crazy about, it is just a good quality barbell chain collar, I like it because the ring under the collar is more spacious to accommodate a bigger, thicker karabiner, if you want to use the biggest bands. The brand is Gorilla Strength Equipment.
Nice!
Thanks, Lou.
Take my money clench fitness! 😂
I have to say that my dealings with this company are second to none as Brandon is there to assist you with any questions or concerns. I am getting closer to pulling the trigger on this bar and questioning whether I should return the Isomax stand alone bar for which I haven't really used as of yet, I would like to get your opinion on this.
Brandon is the MAN for sure. For my IsoMax recommendation, I'd say as with everything, if you're not using it, then get rid of it. Although, I can say a common theme I've heard from people (and myself) is the IsoMax goes through periods of use and disuse for many. Many things are just personal preference and there are many paths up the mountain.
I was about to get harambe for smoothest progression now this I can add weight instaid of spacers to progress. Which is better I'm sure it uses 41 inch bands instead of 38 is it the same strength curve as harambe.
I'd also check out my videos on the Collar Hooks and F2 Training System as that also might give you some ideas.
Got a very limited space...for a homegym would you recommend VOLTRA 1... SPEEDIANCE GYM PAL...or TOTAL GYM? Thanks 👍
I kind of depends on your personal preferences, needs, and budget. The TG would be the most versatile in that bunch and doesn't have technology. Personally it would be TG then a Gym Pal. Of course, both compliment each other really well for a small space.
Namaskar, do you feel using a dumbbell grip, like the Clench Grip, with this bar or any other resistance band bar, would be more useful, in terms of adding more muscle? I would greatly appreciate your advice. God bless you. Regards
I think those products like the fat grips aren't bad, but I don't think you'll add much more noticeably muscle using them On one had you will increase some grip strength, but it also could limit the total reps you'd normally do without them. Bless you too brother
If you had the choice between this and the Harambe K Bar, which one would you pick? Thanks.
Really good question! Really depends on if you 're looking to incorporate weights or not. The K bar is a bit more portable, but at the same you have to throw on all the assessors to make it work. Overall it comes down again with Harambe do you like the sling or not. I personally prefer a basic hook, so I I'd say this.
So, X3 kind of started a new genre of exercise equipment. It made Jaquish a genius, PhD or no PhD. 😂
For sure and or they had a boatload of marketing $$$.
Wow never seen anything like this
Namaskar, I need your expert opinion. What would be your preference - this Clench Bar or the X3 Long Bar? I have the X3 system, but I find the foot plate too narrow, so I've ordered the Clench foot plate, and now I'm deciding between the Clench Bar and the X3 Long Bar, since a longer bar has it's own advantages. Hence, this request for your invaluable advice. God bless you. Regards
If you've already got the clench plate, I'd just go with their bar as you can also use weights if yo'd like as well. The x3 long bar is better if you want a bar that is a little less bulky. I think it's also pretty cool looking with its "lightsaber" qualities.
Namaskar, Thank you so much for your guidance. I was inclined towards the Clench Bar, and now, encouraged by your reply, I'm buying it. It definitely gives more options with the plates. God bless you. Regards
Combining plates w/bands: The way to go: Good resistance through the ROM. Bands alone can't compare.
What is that silver bar that looks like the X bar or Bodylastic bar? And where can I get one?

I see your comments I don’t think Mike erased it
Yea, I don't understand it. As I said in an original response, he either posted a link (in which UA-cam will auto spam) or people just have to realize sometimes a comment doesn't come in immediately.
That's the vector bar, here's the video I did for that ua-cam.com/video/big1KjCUmVc/v-deo.html
Hi Mike, thanks as usual for getting out something really valuable and helpful despite the very short time available. I strongly agree on one of your key points that you have touched based on multiple times over the review. This single item per se has not really to been seen in any other as if scenarios than the astonishing and unique completion, tech and biomechanics achievements of the FULL CLENCH SYSTEM.
- the footplate is the only one having 5 channels under + 2 on the surface and the choice of being bulky is in order to allow to go heavy and at same time not excluding averaging lifters
- sets of bands coming in pairs
- bands being really “elastic” in order to facilitate the starting positioning and giving you the possibility to go as heavy as possible in the movement
- the only system with mini bands which are so painful that you love them
- the handles (again) pure versatility for a variety of needs among which there could be “no need”
- in that case their fat greens are amazing
- ankle straps and carabiners by far the best
- the 6 wall hooks package which is a still
- the constant flow of workouts made available with credibility and passion and humility
- this bar is the essence and a perfect complement to this philosophy of maximising versatility without compromising with absolute excellence
This said probably each and every other system will have something very special.
This bar to me is the essence of The CLENCH way!!!
thanks and apologies for the huge length. Emanuele from ancona.
Maybe Clench could make a resistance band only bar, which would be a little bit less expensive.
I think Mike has shown plenty of knock offs at 50€ that work great. I bought geku on his call and it’s absolutely remarkable. And of course Clench could have done that. They simply did not. Harambe did it.
Sorry just to clarify. Harambe did it perfectly three years ago. Clench to my very personal interpretation has followed another path maybe also to distinguish itself from other excellent players

I didn't erase anything brother. If you by chance put an external link in the description with a comment, UA-cam will generally just auto flag this as spam. I'll look in my spam comments, but it sometimes doesn't even go in there. I think I know the product you're talking about, and all I can say is stay tuned for that.
Back squats jbtyant bar perfect
With that extra length, you got a point there.
What does "pre stretch" mean?
just talking about how the band is lengthened more so than with a shorter bar/board
Ahh ok thanks 👍
This is the ideal variable resistance setup using weights and bands. I don't like the carabiners or the price.
I hear you.
Just use a pair of good barbell chain collars on any regular bar you have and attach your bands on them with a carabiner of your choice. Use loop straps in between to reduce band tension and get as much length as you want, for all ranges. You will be blown away and never go back, if combing weights with bands is your thing.
Looks cool, but IMHO, its way overpriced.
I think clench really failed here.. people who want a bar for bands, rarely want to have weight plates.. it's just... nah
Just pointless... just use Harambe and use the proper band.. like, it's so pointless.
So it’s bad that they gave us more options in one product??? You’re not obligated to add weight plates to it.
@@eheheh3263 No shit sherlock. That wasn't the point *Facepalm*
I use it exclusively for resistance bands training, and it work great! You don't need to add weights, if you don't want to
This bar is really good especially for a chest press. You don't get marks on your arms and shoulders skin like with X3 bar. I use clench, harambe and X3. Every system is great for different exercises
