Why Bumper Plates?
Traditional steel plates are noisy and cannot be dropped during intense CrossFit workouts or Olympic weightlifting sessions. You can drop bumper plates on the floor without damaging the plate, barbell, or floor because they are constructed with rubber around a central metal hub.
Rubber bumper plates absorb the shock from hitting the ground, dampening the noise, so your garage gym session doesn't wake up the block. Round out your home gym with our Olympic bars, competition bumper plates, and squat racks, or kickstart your garage with our most popular barbell and bumper set, the Ignite Package.
Why Crumb Rubber?
If you're looking for something that minimizes noise, crumb rubber plates are a good choice. Crumb rubber's hardness rating is less than virgin rubber, which means it is bouncier and lands softer, so you can control the barbell as it hits the ground.
Why Color-Coded Plates?
Again Faster weight plates are color-coded, so you can properly load the bar every time. These crumb rubber plates are colored by International Weightlifting Federation standards for Olympic competition: red, blue, yellow, green, and white.
