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 Justin Puranik

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice fractional plates

I recently hit a plateau overhead pressing as part of Stronglifts 5x5. The app suggested that I purchase some fractional plates, so I bought these after a little research. They look nice. I weighed them on my kitchen scale and they're all within 0.15 ounces of their stated weight. They fit on my Olympic barbell without being too loose or too tight.

Pros
  • Can be used for a variety of strength training exercises
Cons
  • Increases the risk of muscle imbalances
