In my experience, the most frustrating part of training is hitting a plateau—where no matter how hard I push, the progress just stalls. That changed when I started using rubber change plates. These small-weight options let me add just 0.5kg or 1kg to my lifts, giving my body the stimulus it needs without risking form or injury.
With consistent use of rubber change plates, I noticed measurable improvement in both strength and confidence. I was no longer intimidated by the big 5kg or 10kg jumps. These smaller increments helped me build strength gradually, reducing strain on my joints and improving my technique.
Absolutely. A good set of rubber change plates lasts for years. They're compact, durable, and compatible with Olympic barbells. In my home gym, these are some of the most-used items—far more than the heavy bumper plates. Plus, the rubber coating ensures they don’t damage floors or equipment.
If you’re unsure where to start, here’s a breakdown I usually recommend to my clients:
Plate Weight | Typical Use Case | Available at Goodcrossfit |
---|---|---|
0.5 kg | Micro-loading for small lifts | ✅ |
1.0 kg | Progression for beginners | ✅ |
1.5 kg | Intermediate strength work | ✅ |
2.0 kg | Advanced compound lifts | ✅ |
2.5 kg | For heavy lift plate pairing | ✅ |
Poorly made plates wear out, crack, or even deform over time. That’s why I stick with Goodcrossfit—their rubber change plates are not only calibrated for accuracy, but also built to withstand daily drops. No wobble, no bounce, just consistent performance you can trust.
