Are the 5 and 10 lb plates the same diameter as the 45s? I want full size bumper plates to practice power cleans from the correct height.

if you look at the second image under the 45 lb product you will see a picture of the set lined up from heaviest to lightest. unfortunatley it appears they are all different diameters. hope this answers your question.

Hi Meghan- I purchased the 5lb and they are not the same diameter as the heavier weight plates. Not sure about the 10lb version.

They are approximately 2.5inches in height. Overall thickness will vary depending on the thickness of the bar. Generally speaking, Fat Gripz should at least double the thickness of whichever bar you are using. There is also Fat Gripz Extreme which should be treated as a progression (in my opinion most people will find the Extreme too big).

As everyone else mentioned, there are two 2.5 lb weights in each handle. Keep in mind this only allows you 2.5 and 5 lb increments, but not 7.5 lbs between each 10 lb weight. For example on a 10 lb plate, you can select 10, 12.5, and 15 lbs, but not 17.5 lbs. For a 20 lb plate, you get 20, 22.5, and 25. That aside, I have the have the 90 lb set and love them.

yes, should be no problem provided you do not have oversize plates. I would say a 10 inch plate should be fine.

I was also wondering this same question!!! I had already purchased some 6.5" pads and realized that I also needed to get a new backing plate for my new DA Polisher! I am relieved to have discovered the consensus to be to buy the 6.5" pads with this backing plate!!! Whew!!! Thanks for asking this question & thanks to all the helpful answers!

look for the number marked on your current lifters and then Google it. If its in Google its a valid number. You dont need to know the size just that you are replacing the old with an identical new. Quit whining and order it.... it will work.

I bought this to use at my gym so just used the plates there. The 5lb Olympic plates just fit but with it takes a bit of finagling. If you are looking to purchase weights, then you can find individual plates at any large sporting goods store such as Dick's, Modells, etc. According to other reviews I read, it would be better to look for plates with 1" diameter holes as opposed to the larger diameter holes on Olympic plates as they should be secured more easily.

I have the CAP 15 pound plates which the often sell cheap and can get 150 pounds of plates on the curl 47 inch Z-curl bar with no problems plus the bar at 12 pounds gives me 162 pounds. I could probably If I use my 25's with the 15's and other smaller plates I often do 3 inch close grip bench presses (for the triceps) with the 47 in Z-curl bar and can get 197 pounds on there for sets of 12 reps. I imagine if one put 50's on there you could get well over 200.

Not sure which one this is. Can't imagine there is a lot of difference. But I do think the weights are optional on all of them. I no longer have mine but I think best I remember any 1" plate non olympic should work.

I used the 4 inch disc to hand plates weighing 4 - 6 lbs. The various sizes indicate what the recommended weight is. I am very pleased with the discs of every size. Just follow the instructions as given. They are great!

Many of the local sports stores carry varied sizes weight plates. Just measure the hole in your weight and buy plates with the same size hole. With the diversity of weights that you have with this set, I should think that you would not need to buy any other weights. Remember that if you need a lighter weight, you can use the bar alone or the collars.

The 10lb plates are 7 3/4" (or 20cm) in diameter, 1" thick.The plates are covered in cheap black paint that comes off readily. I would not recommend these for overhead use or chest press, I would recommend them for shrugging.The dumbbell when loaded can prevent some range of motion due to the depth of the enclosure around the grip caused by the surrounding plates.Good to have a tall dumbbell rack for these as wellOverall disappointed with the cheap paint that will leave fragments all over your hands and risk getting into your eyes, but overall a good buy for putting in work but at some risk, possibly coat them with somethingStrongly Prefer a full bar or solid dumbbells, good price for shrugging 100lb dumbbells The 10lb plates are 7 3/4" (or 20cm) in diameter, 1" thick.The plates are covered in cheap black paint that comes off readily.

This particular model is only for Olympic plates. I needed also to buy collars as the weights will not stay in place. 2 inch collars if I remember correctly. I do recomend this machine. If its not available at this time then it should be back again later as was my case.

The pads that come with the kit fit perfect. And after mine wore out I order pads of amazon and they fit perfect I never changed the plate. When you get the kit the pads will tell you what size they are

The dumbbells get wider when you add plates. But the plates are pretty slim so it's no problem. Fairly equivalent in size to typical dumbbells at your local gym.

Yep. The small peg that Greg mentioned is the 1/4 - 20 (I used them for the energy take classic)

There are 10 inches on each side for plates. My 45 lb plates are an 1 1/2 inch - so taking off a inch for a clamp - I can put 6 45 lb plates on each side. The bar weighs 50 lbs - so using my setup the max would be 590 lbs. I am not sure of the actual weight capacity but you could email Troy or google it.
