Are Calibrated Competition Plates Worth It?
It's no joke, Competition Calibrated Plates are pricey! But are they actually worth buying? In this video I review the Rogue Calibrated Competition Plates and give my take on who they're for - and who they AREN'T for.

Also, I’m not sure if you mentioned this or not but because the calibrated plates are so much thinner the entirety of the weight is going to be further away from the end of the sleeve. This is going to cause the bar to whip less. So, if you compete in powerlifting and you’ve been training with standard plates you might be thrown off on competition day when the bar isn’t whipping like you’re used to. This could be especially problematic on deadlifts. If you don’t compete in powerlifting I don’t think this aspect matters much.

@GarageGymGainz 3 года назад

That’s a great point! It makes a pretty significant difference

Thanks for the awesome review! Literally just bought a whole set of these plates except for a pair of 5 lbs... those are still out of stock. Been waiting for A VERY LONG TIME for them to be in stock again. Such beautiful plates, and if you’re like me where the quality and style of your equipment you use makes a huge difference, then they are absolutely worth it. Work out to look sexy, might as well look good while doing it. Very motivating. #homegymgains

@GarageGymGainz 3 года назад

I'm so pumped you were able to finally catch them in stock! I absolutely love mine! I agree - people always say "weight is weight"... but why NOT make your home gym inspiring?

@hvskyline1368 2 года назад

Ngl I want a few sets of plates currently I’m shooting for the LBS version of the ivanko OMs the whole set then I wanna get some Titan urethanes in Kg for olympic lifting and the KG rogue calibrated plates for when I wanna get super accurate and if/when I decide to compete I figure I can use the calibrated change plates with the urethanes too so that’s a plus

410 lb rogue deep dish set is on the site for 1,031 at the moment. i just ordered 2 sets of calibrated 25 kg, 1 set of 20 kg, a set of 15 kg and a set of 10 kg for 1,105 off the site... so thats 418 pounds calibrated. for basically the same price as there deep dish set. also editing my comment to say nice video, good points being made

Nice! I only have one pair of calibrated plates but they are chromed so a little bit more of a durable coating These look really nice though, just a shame rogues Europe site is useless

@@GarageGymGainz yeah it's really hard to get anything from them, the only thing they seem to restock is the echo bike and the bumpers I'd love a full set of calibrated though, they are a pain to handle at first but I prefer it now, everything else feels really big and cumberse haha Nice video man

How do you call a metal weight calibrated an be 20g off?

@GarageGymGainz 2 года назад

Their guaranteed tolerance is +/- 10 or 20g, but most will be even less than that. 20g is nothing....

@sqd8r 3 года назад

I don't know of any cheap plates that are that far off, by several pounds, to skew a lift. Most are fractions of a pound off if that.

@GarageGymGainz 3 года назад

I've only weighed a handful of plates, and I've seen a few that have been at least 2lbs heavy or light. That's not a big deal if it's one.... but (in an extreme case) if you have 5-6 plates on one side that are 2+lbs heavy, and all of the others are 2+lbs light, that'd be a 20+lb difference from side to side. Now obviously that's pretty unrealistic, and I'm not saying everyone should run out and buy calibrated plates, but it's something to consider. Weighing the plates and marking them is always a solid move!
