2.5lb HEX PLATEMATE (PAIR)
Step up your strength game with the 2.5lb HEX PlateMate® (Pair), the ultimate tool for microloading on metal dumbbells. Whether you're a beginner, intermediate, or advanced lifter, PlateMate® lets you gradually build strength in a safe, controlled way.
PlateMate® is a game-changer for advanced lifters, helping you break through plateaus and push your limits. These magnetic add-ons quickly attach to the ends of any iron dumbbells or stackable weight machine plates, giving you instant, secure microloading power.
Perfect for Physical Therapy
PlateMate® is also ideal for rehabilitation, allowing patients to add small increments of weight as they rebuild strength without overstressing injured muscles or tendons.
Key Features:
- Includes: 2 Hex-shaped magnetic weights, 2.5lb each (5lb total)
- Dimensions: 4.25" width, 1.25" thickness
- Magnetic Design: Simply attach to your metal dumbbells and lift.
Built for Metal Dumbbells Only
Because PlateMate® uses powerful magnets, it must be in direct contact with iron or steel. It will not work on dumbbells coated with rubber, urethane, neoprene, or vinyl.
Precision & Protection:
Each PlateMate® is designed for a perfect hold on metal, while a protective coating prevents scratches on your equipment. Ideal for hex dumbbells 10lb. and up, just snap them on, and you’re ready to lift!
Important:
Not for use with kettlebells.
PLATEMATES
Microloading with PlateMate is the safe, scientific way to build strength at beginning, intermediate and advanced exercise levels.
Ideal For Breaking Plateaus
Micro loading benefits advanced lifters by helping them break through "the plateau" to achieve success at the highest levels of weight training.
New lifters can utilize PlateMates to increase weight gradually, in order to safely lift more weight while minimizing the risk of injury.
Physical Therapists use PlateMates to help their patients incrementally aid more weight to exercises. This allows them to regain strength without overburdening their muscles and tendons.
Strong Magnets
PlateMates attach quickly and easily to ends of any iron dumbbells, cast iron or steel plates, and weight stack machines.
