Weight Plates: Building a Strong Foundation
Standard weight plates, typically made from cast iron or steel, are a cost-effective option for building a home gym or adding weight to barbells and dumbbells. They come in various weights, allowing you to customise workouts to your fitness level.
Here are some key benefits of weight plates:
- Versatility: Perform a wide range of exercises, from bicep curls to squats and overhead presses.
- Cost-effective: A great investment for beginners and experienced lifters alike.
- Durability: Built to withstand rigorous workouts.
- Customisable: Add or remove plates to adjust the weight as you progress.
Bumper Plates: Engineered for Performance
Bumper plates, often made from rubber or a combination of rubber and metal, offer several advantages for specific training styles:
- Reduced Noise: The rubber coating dampens impact noise, making them ideal for home gyms, apartments, or weightlifting platforms.
- Increased Protection: The rubber protects floors and barbells from damage caused by dropped weights.
- Improved Grip: The textured surface of some bumper plates provides a better grip for handling heavier weights.
- Enhanced Durability: Bumper plates can withstand repeated drops without cracking or breaking.
Choosing the Right Weight Plates or Bumper Plates for You
Selecting the most suitable weight plates depends on your training goals and environment:
- Home Gyms: Standard weight plates are a great choice for home gyms due to their affordability and versatility.
- Olympic Weightlifting: Bumper plates are essential for Olympic weightlifting due to their ability to absorb impact from dropped weights and protect flooring.
- CrossFit: Both kinds of plates can be used for CrossFit workouts. Bumper plates might be preferred for exercises like cleans, snatches, and thruster movements due to their noise reduction and floor protection.
Beyond Weight Plates: Building Your Home Gym
Barbells: Choose a barbell compatible with your chosen weight plates. Consider the weight capacity and length to suit your workout needs.
Dumbbells: A set of dumbbells allows for unilateral exercises, targeting each side of the body independently.
Squat Rack or Power Rack: Provides a safe and secure platform for squats, overhead presses, and other barbell exercises (consider browsing our squat racks for sale!).
Weight Plate Rack: Keeps your weight plates organised and readily accessible.
