Review on Set Of 8 Olympic Barbell Change Plates By The Friendly Swede - 5 Lb Fractional Micro Weight Plates For Incremental Strength Training And Muscle Building Increases by Jason Fanney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Satisfied geezer for my opinion

I’m a seventy-year-old newly retired male. I began the Rippetoe "Starting Strength” regimen three months ago and had reached the point where five pound incremental increases were going to lead to potential injury. An Internet search brought up the friendly Swede as a source of micro weights, and I bought a set. The quality is superb, and I find the color coding helpful. The price is at the upper end of the range of available micro sets, but—given the quality and the fact I’ll never have to purchase another set—I’m pleased.

Pros
  • It is a very tight fit on several of my barbells.
Cons
  • All of the other plates are fine but the blue ones don't fit properly.
