I'm considering getting a barbell and weights for home use. Any tips on what to consider? Any recommendations? I see they have a standard bar and an easy curl bar. What are the pros and cons for each one?

Also I am a Beachbody coach and I can get the Les Mills Pump program for $125. it includes a barbell with 2 five pounds weights and 2 ten pound weights so I am wondering if this is the best way for me to go? Any comments on the equipment or the program? You can see the equipment (and the program) at the link below:

FYI I do already have an adjustable dumbbell set.

Thanks :)

    I think Beachbody programs are overpriced horsecrap.

    I'm also pretty sure that this thread will be deleted.

    Beachbody is garbage

    And a barbell that only comes with 30 pounds is a joke

    Thanks for the helpful advice telling me what I should not get but I'm looking for advice about what I should get.

    You guys should take some happy pills.
