Product Description |
|
Do you ever feel that adding weight in 5 pound increments is too much? PlateMate magnet weights attach to your dumbbells or weight plates allowing you to add weight in the increments you want. |

It is everything I expected |
|
I am a personal trainer with my own studio. These magnets are perfect for the increments between on my dumbells that are 5 pounds apart. For some exercises 5 pounds is a big jump. These magnets simply add 1.25 pounds on each end of a dumbell for a total of 2.5 lbs. I got 2 pairs one pair for each dumbell. Now I have twice as many weights to choose from. The magnets can hold a 20 pound dumbell for a second. They do not work very well on plastic coated weights. They work well on selectorized weight machines. It shows on the box that it works on olympic bars but they do not fit. The hole is too small just like other reviews said. I would not use these on olympic bars anyways they cost too much for that. If that is what you want just get 1.25 pound plates. |

Works, but could definitely use improvement |
|
The hole is not large enough to fit on an Olympic bar. You have to use the magnets to attach them to other weights, however, they do not stick well to rubber coated Olympic weights, like the VTX series. I have to attach them to the bar itself. That works OK, but they really should just make the hole about 1/4" bigger to let them slide onto the bar. |

Awesome |

This is a great product. I use them with my power blocks. They have very strong magnets so there is no movement or shift of the weights. When you are at the top of the weight you can lift in a certain rep-range, these are a smart way to bump up to the next level and keep the progress coming. I highly recommend them. |

worth its weight |

These simple add-on weights are perfect for the bodybuilder who likes to fine tune his weight increments bit by bit instead of overloading with another whole plate that's too much of an increase. The magnets that hold the plates on are very strong, so there's no slippage and the weights are accurate. It's a good idea and an honest product. |
