ZIVA XP Rubber Bumper Plates are made with a solid steel plate at their core. This precision weighted plate is encased in a tough virgin rubber shell that is incredibly resilient and is made such that it protects the plate within - and, to some extent, the surrounding gym - even when the Bumper Plate is dropped from a significant height. The center of the XP Rubber Bumper Plate is a chrome insert that makes it easy to slide on and off the barbell.
While ZIVA's XP Rubber Bumper Plates can be used in much the same way as any other weight disc - to add resistance to bench press, squat, deadlift, or any other barbell-based exercise - its true advantage is seen when used for more technical, more explosive exercises like cleans, jerks, Crossfit, and Olympic Weight Lifting. As such, if your gym aims to attract clients who appreciate these sorts of exercises, we suggest adding XP Rubber Bumper Plates to your gym's selection of equipment.
XP Rubber Bumper Plates can be used for any barbell exercise, but their usefulness really shines through for explosive exercises and Olympic Weight Lifting. If your fitness facility includes space dedicated to barbell exercises, we suggest keeping at least 1x (one) complete set (2x each of 10 lbs. & 25 - 55 lbs.) of these Bumper Plates on hand for every 2x (two) barbells to complement whatever other weight disc sets you may have. If your gym has clients who particularly enjoy moving heavy weights, we suggest having 2x (two) sets on hand for every 2x (two) barbells.
We suggest adding XP Rubber Bumper Plates to your gym's section dedicated to barbell exercises. It makes sense to have at least 1x (one) complete set (2x each of 10 lbs. & 25 - 55 lbs.) of these weight discs on hand, but if you have multiple deadlifting platforms and attract or want to attract clients that like to lift heavy and enjoy explosive lifts and Olympic Lifting, you may want more.
There are several! The best part about choosing one of our storage options is that you know it will match with the design language and aesthetic of the weight plates, so your gym will enjoy an overall more cohesive and higher class look.
