troy lite bar ?

[fit 4 life]

Where did you purchase yours? I have a bar right now that is not threaded and I have the clips that you slide on and off. I notice a lot of you love the troy barbell. I was thinking of purchasing one.

Any comments or suggestions?

Thanks again

Debbie

it is expensive, . . but mostly because of shipping and handling, . .which tends to cost almost as must if not more than the bar and weights itself. i have to tell you it is well worth the investment.

I have the Troy Lite set and I love it. I got mine here (you may need to scroll down the page to see it)-- http://www.fitness1st.com/Troy-Bars.html

The set doesn't come with 10# plates but you can order them separately.

I think Fitness 1st has the best prices that I've seen. The set costs $49.99 and the shipping was right around $20.

I have a question. I recently bought a barbel set that includes iron plates. If I bought a Troy lite bar, could I use these plates on it, or would I need to buy the Troy Lite plates? Any help from those who have one would be greatly appreciated.

I myself bought the Troy Lite bar minus the plates it was cheaper shipping also.
I already had plates that were purchased locally. HTH

Debbie,
Do you have a weighted body bar? I have a 15lb body bar and to increase the weight I just slip ankle weights on the end! No clips, no changing plates- very easy! It's a good way to make use of eqipment you may already have on hand.

Take care!

Hi Lisa, what a good idea. I have an 18 pound body bar and two sets of ankle weights. I wish I was that creative

Geez! I just ordered the Troy lite set today and forgot to add on the set of 10lb plates! Had to go back and order these! I am glad I saw this post!
