Foam padded aerobics bar

Carley353

Hi,
does anyone know where I can buy these in Ireland? I used one in a gym years ago and found them great but I can't find them in any shop or online
(I don't want to buy from U.S. due to customs charges etc)

I saw one in amazon UK but it wasn't a padded bar........any help would be appreciated......I'm looking for one approx 10lbs.

thanks

I'm curious. Why does it need to be padded? And not just a light bar?

Well I just want to get one like the one I used in the gym cos I found it great for toning my arms.

And the padding made it really easy to grip and easier to rest on your shoulders when doing lunges.

I'm guessing it weighed approx 8lbs or so but not sure, what would be considered a light bar?

Well,this one looks padded judging from the pic

Thanks, I don't see a weight on that one though - does that mean you have to add weights to each end?

The type I am talking about is similar to these in the U.S.

That looks like it might be just what I'm looking for - thanks a mil H8GHOTI

Now I will just have to trot along to my local Tesco and keep my fingers crossed that they have it in stock!
