The Details

Ideal for beginners practicing and developing the technique for traditional Olympic lifts. Care should be taken when using these air plates, as they are made from a hollow plastic which is essential to get a full-sized plate weighing only 5kg. They should also only be used by themselves on a bar, not in conjunction with any other weight plate.

Frequently Asked Questions about our Technique Weight Plates

What are Oversized Technique Plates?

Oversized Technique Plates are lightweight training plates designed to help beginners practise Olympic lifts with proper form. They mimic the full size (450mm diameter) of standard plates but weigh only 2.5kg or 5kg.

Who should use technique plates?

These plates are ideal for beginners, youth athletes, or anyone learning Olympic lifts. They allow lifters to develop proper technique without the strain or risk of heavier loads.

Can I mix technique plates with other bumper plates?

No, technique plates should only be used on a bar by themselves. They are not designed to support the load of additional weight plates and may get damaged if combined with heavier ones.

Are technique plates suitable for dropping?

Light, air-filled technique plates are not designed to withstand repeated heavy drops. Care should be taken during use to ensure longevity and safety.
