Okay, so I’ve been wanting to add a little something to my home gym setup, and I finally decided to go for it. I got myself a pink industrial barbell! I know, it sounds a bit extra, but hear me out.
Finding the Right One
First, I spent ages just browsing online. I was looking at all sorts of barbells, but I really wanted something that would stand out, you know? Something that wasn’t just the usual boring black or silver.
I stumbled across these pink ones, and I was immediately intrigued. The pictures looked great, and Reading the customer comments, I found lots of good * seemed perfect!
Getting it Home
The barbell arrived in this HUGE box. Seriously, I struggled to even get it through the door. My husband helped to get it, so exciting!
- Unboxing it was a whole workout in itself.
- Lots of padding and wrapping to keep everything safe.
- I might have gotten a little impatient with all the tape.
Putting it Together
It came in a few pieces, so I had to assemble it. Honestly, it wasn’t too bad. The instructions were pretty clear, pictures and everything. Even though I’m not the handiest person, I managed to get it all together in about 20 minutes. I just followed the steps, screwed everything tight, and boom – pink barbell ready to go!
First Workout
Of course, I had to try it out right away! I loaded up some of my lighter weights, just to get a feel for it. It felt really solid and sturdy. The knurling (that’s the rough part on the bar) was good, gave me a nice grip. And honestly, the pink color just made me smile. It’s silly, but it added a fun element to my workout.
I did a few squats, some overhead presses, and even a couple of deadlifts (with very light weight, of course – still getting used to it!). It felt amazing. I’m so excited to keep using it and see my progress. It’s definitely a step up from my old, basic barbell. And did I mention it’s pink?! Love it!
So, yeah, that’s my pink industrial barbell story. Might seem like a small thing, but it’s made my home workouts way more enjoyable. Sometimes it’s the little things, right?
