History

Capps Texas Body Building Bar was Co-Created and Endorsed by Branch Warren
Created in July 2019

When I started lifting weights with Olympic bars back in the 1960’s, I noticed that there was hardly any grip. The knurling on these bars was so light when the bars were new, that now years later they were almost slick. The sleeves were held on to the bar with a threaded end cap and the inside collars were held in place with a set screw. Each sleeve consisted of three pieces.

The Goal was to create a bar that would have and keep a better knurled grip. A bar, whose sleeves wouldn’t slide in to the center. A maintenance free bar.

The Result - The Texas Power Bar

Proudly Made in the USA Since 1980. The shafts are center less ground, demagnetized and oiled to the max before shipping to Texas. Once at our production facility, we machine and then knurl each shaft to create a grip that is still the best in the industry. Texas Power Bars have different finishes available including black zinc and chrome plating.The sleeves are are available raw or chrome plated.

Big tensile strength numbers sound very impressive and we have them but, the proof is on the platform. Hundreds of state, national, international and world powerlifting records have been and continue to be set and broken on the The Texas Power Bar.

Texas Bodybuilding Bar

Came quickly. The smaller diameter feels good in the hand. The knurling is great. Your hands will not slip. I dig the triple hash marks. It looks fantastic. A brilliant piece of equipment. Very pleased with this purchase.

Just feels good in my hands

This is a fun bar to train with.... Versatile for all lifting needs. Good purchase.

The best!

Simply put from products to service, my experience was amazing. Thank you!

New favorite bar

I have the Ohio Power bar and the the Ohio bar but I just got the Texas Bodybuilding Bar. This one blows them away. The 27mm diameter is just right for my hands. The knurling is perfect and the triple hand alignment marks make setting up for JM presses easier for me. I just ordered a second one. I only wish they offered a version without the sleeves to use with the old school York plates with 1 1/8 inch holes.

Nice bars

Really liking the body building bar.
