What can you train with these 2.5 kg weights?
This size adds 5 kg to your bar (two plates), which is a significant but manageable jump upwards. It's perfect for your squats, bench presses and deadlifts when you're getting stronger really fast. You'll gain strength quickly while retaining enough of a safety margin to preserve your technique. It's also perfect for variants such as front squats and sumo deadlifts.
How does the steel make these plates durable?
In powerlifting, your plates undergo colossal pressure under your max loads, rep after rep. The steel maintains its shape and precision, even after thousands of cycles. It perfectly withstands controlled contact with the floor during deadlifts. On the other hand, these rigid plates aren't made to be violently dropped from a height, like in weightlifting.
Why choose this 2.5 kg powerlifting plate?
This plate has already won over the most demanding powerlifters. It has been tested intensively in a pro gym and proven to be exceptionally sturdy. It's easy to grasp so that you can quickly adjust your bar. The colour coding lets you instantly spot the weight you want. With its 5-year warranty, this plate offers the best value for money on the market to help you get stronger load after load.
Can you really rely on the weight it says?
Each plate is weighed to comply with the tolerance of 0.25% required for competitions. For smaller sizes, this tolerance never exceeds 10 g either way. This individual checking guarantees perfect uniformity for every pair of plates, and total consistency for your bar. You can load up with precise numbers, make progress thanks to constant benchmarks, and arrive at your competitions without needing any adjustments.
