At my gym all the flat barbell are either in the squat rack or on the bench press, there are a lot of ez bars and preset flat bar, but all the empty flat bars are either in the squat rack or on the bench press, so I've had to deadlift in the squat rack the past two weeks. Luckily there is only usual one person at a squat rack and there are 4 of them, but there are always people at the bench press. When I get past curling 110lbs with the preset bar, I might have to curl in the squat rack if I don't want to curl with an ez bar.
