Product Highlights

Co-developed with powerlifting legend and strength coach Louie Simmons, Rogue’s redesigned Westside Power Bar is now fully machined and assembled in Columbus, Ohio–just down the road from Simmons’ renowned Westside Barbell training facility.

The Westside Power Bar 2.

When Louis Simmons puts his stamp of approval on a piece of powerlifting equipment, people tend to take notice.

The Rogue Westside Power Bar 2.0 developed along side Louis Simmons is in my mind, the powerlifting bar to have.
