  • Our take on the US Weight 55 lb Beginner Set

    The US Weight 55 lb Beginner Set is a standard 1-inch barbell kit with a three-piece threaded bar and coated plates, aimed at people starting out with home strength training. The rubber-coated grip and rust-resistant finish are practical touches at this level, and the threaded collars hold plates without clamps. It is lighter and simpler than Olympic sets, so it suits light lifts, curls, rows and toning rather than heavy squats or bench pressing. Rivals in the same class often use the same 1-inch standard, so the choice comes down to plate mix and bar feel.

    Pros
    • Three-piece threaded bar packs down small
    • Rubber-coated grip is easier on the hands
    • Rust-resistant coating on plates
    • Standard 1-inch plates fit most budget bars
    • 5 lb plates allow small jumps
    Cons
    • 55 lb total is light for serious strength work
    • 1-inch bar flexes and spins less than Olympic bars
    • Threaded collars are slower to change than clamps
    • Few large plates, so heavy lifts are out of reach

    What reviewers say

    Owners treat this as an entry-level set that does the basics: easy to store, comfortable to hold, and fine for light lifting. The main complaints are the low total weight and the fiddly threaded collars.

    What people mention
    • Weight rangeCriticisedOwners say the 55 lb total runs out fast as strength improves.
    • GripPraisedThe rubber-coated grip is described as comfortable and secure in the hands.
    • CollarsCriticisedThreaded collars are called slow and awkward to change between sets.
    • StoragePraisedThe three-piece bar breaks down and stows easily in small spaces.
    • BuildMixedThe set feels adequate for light use but less solid than Olympic equipment.

    Questions and answers

    Is this set good for a total beginner?
    Yes. It covers light presses, curls, rows and squats with small 5 lb jumps, which suits learning form. Expect to outgrow it once lifts get heavier.
    Can I add more plates to it?
    Yes, if they are standard 1-inch plates. The bar and threaded sleeves take 1-inch plates, so you can build up weight without replacing the bar.
    Does it work for squats and bench pressing?
    Only at light weights. The 55 lb total and 1-inch bar limit how much you can load safely, so it is better for upper-body and arm work.
    How much space does it need?
    Little. The bar is 32 inches long and comes apart into three pieces, so it stores in a closet or corner between sessions.
    Are the plates rust-resistant?
    The plates have a rust-resistant coating, and owners report they hold up with basic care. Wipe off sweat and keep them dry.
    What is included in the set?
    A three-piece threaded 1-inch barbell bar with collars and a mix of coated standard plates totaling 55 lb.
