Our extensive knowledge of exercise equipment makes us the number one place to find all the gear you need – whether you are looking for a yoga mat, want to fit out your home gym, or you are a fitness pro ready to fit out an entire gym.

Our team are on hand to help, so if you are looking to add Olympic bumper weights and bars to your training regime, we can offer you a range of options.

 

What is Olympic Weightlifting?

The Olympic sport of weightlifting gives competitors the opportunity to prove how heavy they can lift in just one go. The competition is split into different weight classes, and each entrant gets three lifts with the combined total of the top two lifts taken to ascertain the overall position in the competition.

Olympic weightlifting tests the explosive strength of competitors with two types of lift. Each lift is executed quickly, with a wider range of motion than other strength classes, and has slightly different setups:

  • Snatch

The snatch is a single-motion move with a wide grip. The aim is to lift the bar from the floor above the head in one move.

  • Clean and Jerk

The clean and jerk is a two-step move with a narrow grip where the barbell is first raised to collarbone height (the clean) and then pushed up above the head (the jerk).

The clean and press used to be an Olympic lift but is no longer an active part of the competition.

With the right Olympic bar and bumper weights, you can perform these ballistic moves as part of your training regime, but it is important to understand what an Olympic bar is.

What sets Olympic Barbells apart?

An Olympic bar is a steel bar with rotating sleeves at either end for the weights to be attached. Competition bars are 7.2ft for men and 6.6ft for women, weighing 20kg and 15kg, respectively. Here at NC Fitness Gear, our Olympic barbells are a standard 7ft long with weights of 10/15/20kg. The weights themselves have a larger diameter hole to fit on the Olympic bars, and the rotating sleeve allows the weights to spin independently which is safer for heavier lifts.

We are always conscious of the importance of safety, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look good, too. That is why we have Olympic bars and bumpers in different finishes so that you can choose what works best for you. Our bars come in: hard chrome, bright hard chrome, black hard chrome and black zinc, and our bumpers are rubber coated for safety.

Bought a sled, turf and belt squat from NC Fitness. Service was great and build quality is good. The belt squat and sled were easy to assemble and the staff helped with loading it all into my vehicle. I will be buying more products from here in the future for sure 👍

Bought some rubber mats and plates, prices were competitive and its nice to be able to rock up and just load into the back of your car.

Friendly staff.

These are good quality bumper plates for the price and cope well for CrossFit style WODs where weights are constantly dropped.
NC Fitness also have excellent customer service nothing is too hard for them.

Best investment in a long time I have a lot of knots in my shoulders and I suffer from sciatic pain as well this has helped me so much. My friends have used mine and have ended up purchasing the ball as well. Best investment in a long time.

Great quality stuff ordered skipping rope and a box jump and came quicker then expected. They also sent me some extra goodies which I was very happy with

I've made 3 different purchases from NC Fitness, collecting one order in person, while shipping the other two orders. The quality of their products is fantastic, while their pricing is competitive. I have plenty of rogue fitness equipment too and the NC stuff is equal in build strength, quality and finish - though more affordable. I've brought dumb bells, plyo box, H-Series rig components etc. Their freight rates and shipping times are fair, given the weight of the products shipping. Keep up the great work team!
