Getting the right barbell

I'm just jumping into this thread so I'm not certain what's going on nor have I read all the replies.

I too have a Firm barbell which I find too short, but easy to "operate". On the other hand, after hunting around the Internet forever, I did find another barbell that appears identical to the ones Cathe uses in her vids, from http://www/tommysfitness.com" (hope this link works). I got a 5-foot barbell. You must order the clips that hold the weight-plates on separately - they're not very expensive.

Although The Firm's barbell is padded from end to end and is extremely comfortable, the longer barbell (order a separate barbell pad for your neck and shoulders) is much more easy to handle and, in my opinion, more balanced.
