What should you pay attention to when purchasing barbell sets?

If you're planning to start strength training, chances are you've come across them: dumbbell markers. These markers are indispensable, whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete. No matter which muscle group you want to train, dumbbell markers are always suitable.

To train with barbells, you need a barbell. Using the barbells, you can increase the weight, allowing you to lift progressively heavier weights. If you have a home gym or are thinking about building one, start by purchasing a barbell and barbells. If you're going to train with barbells (especially at home), you should pay close attention to the quality of the barbells. It's important that they are of good quality. Want to be sure your barbells are of good quality? Then check out our current selection .

Requirements & Wishes

It's important to know why you're training and what your goals are. Goals are important, especially when purchasing weight plates. If you've already taken a look at our current selection, you'll see that there are many different types of weight plates. These include plastic, gripper, cast iron, and Olympic weight plates. However, there are also plates made of rubber and chrome. Depending on your training goals and whether you're a beginner or experienced athlete, there are different weight plates available for you. Whatever your goals, there are weight plates to suit them.

Just to be clear, if you're training with light weight plates, you're using them to promote muscle growth. Heavy weight plates, on the other hand, are designed to build muscle mass. So keep this in mind when purchasing weight plates.

Besides the different materials, there are also different weight classes. Available weights are 0-10kg, 11-20kg, and 21-30kg. The diameters of these discs are 50mm, 30mm, and 25mm.

Warranty

It's also good to know that no matter which weight plates you buy, you always get a two-year warranty. Are you going to train very intensively? Then it's wiser to buy weight plates made of cast iron, rubber, or chrome. Looking for extra comfort? Then consider weight plates with grip openings. These grip openings make it easier to change them and prevent finger injuries.

We've already mentioned the sizes above, but we'd rather mention them anyway to avoid bad purchases. Dumbbells come in two standard sizes: 30mm and 50mm. The discs should be the same.
