Weight plates are typically loaded on a variety of different types of barbells, such as an Olympic bar, curl bar, hex bar, individual dumbbell handles and more. In addition, many machines are plate loaded, such as individual strength stations or plate loaded smith machines. No matter what you need weight plates for, Fitness Experience has a wide selection of sizes and styles of Olympic weight plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eQuality\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFitness Experience carries high quality plates from different brands. If there is a certain type of Olympic weight plates, or any other free weights you're looking for we can always do our best to find a product that will be suitable for you or your commercial fitness facility. In terms of quality and durability, there is not much that can go wrong with a set of weight plates, but like anything there will be a range of options from basic to premium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOlympic weight plates are available in a variety of materials, but the most common will be cast iron or rubber coated. Cast iron plates will almost always be the most cost effective option, but some customers find cast iron plates to be louder and a bit more difficult to handle. Rubber coated Olympic plates are the most popular option, because they are mid-range in price, usually have nice cut outs to hold onto, they are quiet and have more grip on them. The extra grip comes in handy in many different situations, like when you're stacking the plates, holding the plate for an exercise and they will be quieter overall. Lastly, there are more premium options for Olympic plates, such as urethane coating or neoprene. These high quality materials will be more expensive, but extremely durable and not greasy or smelly. The smell of rubber coating will wear off, but does bother some customers at first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/fitnessexperience.ca\/products\/300lb-rubber-olympic-plate-set?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=6864b373d\u0026amp;_ss=r\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/fitnessexperience.ca\/products\/300lb-rubber-olympic-plate-set?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=6864b373d\u0026amp;_ss=r\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eOlympic Plate Sets\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOften times customers are looking for a full set of Olympic weight plates with an Olympic bar and collars to use for strength training.
