We estimate your chest from your height, weight and build, add the room you asked for, then match it to this garment's measured chest width. It's a starting point, not a guarantee — the surest check is to lay a shirt you already love flat and compare it on the Size chart tab.

    “The perfect pump cover.”

    The relaxed fit one I got recently is the perfect pump cover/extra layer for me. In Alaska the gym can feel cool at times and I hate being cold when I train. Mississippi boy. I just order 3 more. CB versus erbody

    “Walks the walk.”

    THE BEST brand on the market hands down. Walks the walk and talks the talk. Amazing art work and design too. Fits perfectly and just like the guy above saying they abuse the shirts in the gym, same lol.

A little help with the fit

Find your fit. Then chase the PR.

Like it snug on the arms? Room to breathe under the bar? Start with a shirt you already love.

  1. 1

    Lay your favorite shirt flat.

    Measure straight across, armpit to armpit. That's the chest width.

  2. 2

    Check the length.

    Measure from the back collar seam straight down to the bottom hem.

  3. 3

    Match it to ours.

    Compare with our garment measurements, or let Find my size do the math.

In their words

  • “No issues with length.”

    Ordered the akuma XXL tank. Came out great. I’m 6,5 with a long torso and there weren’t any issues with length. Seller was responsive to my messages too.

  • “Amazing company!”

    One of the most reputable and solid companies around. Always willing to go above and beyond to deliver quality items. Highly recommend!

    Anthony P.

  • “Best shirts ever.”

    Best shirts ever and super fast shipping!!! And the customer service is outstanding. 10/10 would recommend.

    Autumn W.

  • “The quality has been amazing!”

    I've bought multiple shirts on many occasions and the quality has been amazing! Would purchase from again

    John

  • “The products are excellent.”

    I never buy from the USA but I will buy from this company. The products are excellent, designs last foreverrrr & don’t seem to crack, and the owner is a stand up guy. Will definitely buy from them again.

  • “One of the best clothing brands out there.”

    One of the best clothing brands out there. From the design to the fit it’s the only way to go!

    Colton S.

  • “For the Lifter, By the Lifter.”

    Absolutely blown away by Conquering Barbell. The three shirts I ordered are the highest quality tees I’ve ever owned—super comfortable, great fit, and they feel built to last. The printing is hands-down the best I’ve ever seen: crisp, bold, and perfectly done with zero cheap “crack and peel” vibes. On top of that, shipping was fast and everything showed up exactly as expected.

    What really sets the brand apart is that it’s for lifters, by lifters. You can tell it’s built by people who actually train. The owner, Audie, personally thanked me when he saw me training in the shirts during my powerlifting meet prep, even shared me to his story and wished me luck. That kind of genuine support and engagement is rare and speaks volumes about the culture behind the brand.

    I’ll 100% be ordering more.

  • “All time fav company to buy from.”

    All time fav company to buy from in the us. Orders always on time and the owner is hella funny. Tracking numbers are always sent out right away and I’ve never had any delays. Would 1000% recommend this brand

    Ariel K.Canada

  • “Outstanding quality.”

    Bought this and one of the squat, press and pull shirts and they are outstanding quality. By far some of the best shirts I have bought to train in.

One-man operation

Designed, printed and packed by a lifter.

I’m Audie. I compete in powerlifting, and I’ve run Conquering Barbell out of Tennessee since 2013. I design it, print it and ship it. Every shirt is printed in-house after you order. No print farm, no middlemen. If something’s wrong with your order, you’re emailing the guy who made it.

The bar bends. You don’t.
