Microloading with PlateMate® is the safe, scientific way to build strength at beginning, intermediate and advanced exercise levels.
Ideal for saving money & space. Our 2.5lb Donut allows for the same benefit of owning a full rack of steel dumbbells for half the price.
Attached to each end of a dumbbell, the 2.5lb donut allows for 5lb increments eliminating the need to buy every other pair of dumbbells. Which also saves you space.
These magnetic add-on weights attach quickly and easily to ends of any iron dumbbells and stack weight machine plates.
PlateMates are ideal for physical therapy where small increases help patients regain strength without overburdening injured muscles and tendons.
