10 kg bumper plate: the essential top-up weight
The 10 kg weight training plate is an essential top-up plate for adjusting your loads between the 5 and 15 kg steps. By adding one pair on each side of the bar, you go up by 20 kg, a common increment for progressive loading on the squat, deadlift or bench press. It is also the plate most used for warming up: it lets you build the load in regular steps before reaching your working sets.
At only 47 mm thick for 10 kg, this bumper offers an excellent weight-to-space ratio on the sleeve. You can stack several pairs while keeping room for your main loading plates.
