Great uses for the barbell.

I personally don't do a ton of power and Olympic lifts with a barbell anymore.

My training has long leaned more towards bodyweight, dumbbells, and kettlebells. Workouts you can do pretty much anywhere at anytime. Workouts that don't beat you up.

I do LOVE a certain group of barbell exercises, though.

They're performed by wedging a barbell in a corner (or a special unit called the Landmine) and grasping one end of it. You stand up in front of the bar, hold onto the collar and can perform a variety of exercises like:
Presses
Rows
Lateral Raises
Snatches
Squats
Reverse Lunges
Romanian Deadlifts
Single Leg Romanian Deadlifts
Full Contact Twists
And more...
These exercises are a lot easier on your body and allow for a more natural, freer range of motion.

Enjoy your day!

I still base my 3 day split around the big 3. I feel better about the effectiveness of each workout having 1 of the 3 in each session. I'll do that exercise first when I am fresh and everything that follows is ancillary work. Being over 40 it doesn't make sense to me to save deads, squats or bench for the last exercise, unless I want to risk injury. The trick for me is to make sure I'm nicely warmed up for my heavy set.
