Place it on a flat, stable surface to ensure proper alignment during lifting. Avoid using it with excessively heavy loads beyond the recommended 500 pounds. For best results, ensure the floor is level and clean to prevent slipping or instability. The bar is ideal for home fitness setups where space is limited.
