6 ft bars weigh less (usually 25-35 lbs, rather than 45lbs) and are used for ancillary exercises. A true women's Olympic bar (the bars used in Olympic competitions for females) are 6ft 6" and weigh 15 kilos. The weight limit on this bar (300lbs) is quite low by lifting standards, which reinforces the fact that it's not meant for heavy lifting. That's not a bad thing, but don't buy this bar and try to use it to bench or squat: it almost certainly won't sit safely in a traditional rack, because the collars won't extend out far enough.
This bar is much more suited to things like standing lunges, bicep curls, skullcrushers, and the like--basically movements where the bar does not need to be racked and is not subject to dynamic movement.

This is exactly what I need. I'm a petite woman and I have a regular 45 lb barbell but would like something lighter for cleans or anything where I'm picking it up from the ground. For some reason, training barbells/technique bars are so pricy. I dont need it to be long since it won't be racked. Thanks!

I'm a touch over 6'. Would it be comfortable using this to squat without a rack, or to do bench presses on a bench without a rack? And 1 inch versus 2 inch collar? Is one better than the other, or are weights more expensive for one type or harder to get.?
Might as well order it at that price, I have a bunch of 1" plates on order so why not get this 1" barbell as a starting point. The connectors they sell that turn adjustable dumbells into a 5' barbell cost this much anyway, and are way sketchier.

I dont want the home gym to take alot of space in basement as I am giving space for the 4yo and her friends. Any suggestions on a squat rack, bench?
Right now just working on core and with all other stuff going on, it may take 2 more months to start on any meaningful weight lifting.
