Micro / fractional plates


To be honest, I don't even know why I bothered getting them. If I were you I would just stick to 2.5kg jumps, so 2x1.25 plates. Any less and you can just add a rep or 2. I only use my 1kg and .25kg plates to make 2.5 total jump LOL.
 
thats it, I already have 0.5 and 1.25 plates, to the smallest jumps will be either 1 or 1.5kg, depending where it is... thats small enough for me...

just OCD with metric measures and always looking for OCD options...
 
I have seen some industrial washers with an inside dimension of 50mm, really cheap zinc plated ones.

im interested in what exercises you'll use them for shrekko
I can only see value in using these in upper body movements.

Pussy.

I have 0.5kg plates for my std dumbbells but I haven't heard of smaller than 1.25kg for oly, just 50mm washers like silverback said. You have oly DBs?

Sometimes I think 0.5kg adjustments are needed for my squats, usually after watching a sad movie.
 
Have a google, plenty of places that have 0.5kg steel or rubber coated standard or olympic for $2-$5 ea....
