A weightlifting bar is a specialized barbell designed for weightlifting and powerlifting activities. It conforms to the standards set by organizations like the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) and the International Powerlifting Federation (IPF). Typically weighing 20 kilograms (44 pounds) for men and 15 kilograms (33 pounds) for women, a weightlifting bar features rotating sleeves that enable weight plates to spin freely during lifts. This design reduces wrist strain and enhances the fluidity of movements, making it an essential tool for performing exercises like the snatch, clean and jerk, and other compound lifts in competitive weightlifting.
