The Catalyst Men’s Barbell needs no introduction. Its vibrant red shaft and bright chrome sleeves with black and red snap rings demand attention and make for a barbell that synthesizes aesthetic appeal and durable longevity. The 1000-pound capacity is made possible by a PSI of 160,000, a 25mm diameter, and a length of 2010 mm. It weighs 20kg (44 pounds) and is ideal for a wide range of exercises.  Each sleeve is 12.5 inches long and equipped with 4 needle bearings and 2 bushings to facilitate smooth, controlled motions throughout the lift. The medium knurling, placed where athletes are most likely to put their hands, gives the users a comfortable yet sturdy grip, enhancing overall control. In chemistry, a catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without undergoing any permanent change itself. In literature, it is an event or a character that comes along and changes everything. In fitness, it is a barbell from BOLT.
