Benefits of precision olympic plates

Our usage and maintenance advice
To maximise the life of your olympic plates, handle them with care during load changes and avoid direct impacts between plates. Store them on suitable racks to preserve the rubber coating and maintain their precision. During use, check regularly that the collars are properly tightened and respect the load capacity of your bars. For optimal training, plan your progressions in steps of 125 g to 250 g depending on your level, prioritising movement quality over load increases.
