About this product
This 2.5 lb set of fractional weight plates from Micro Gainz allows for micro loading adjustments on dumbbells. Made from alloy steel, the set includes two pieces. Designed for unisex adults, these plates are ideal for gradual strength progression. Priced at $159.99, they target serious lifters who need small increments.
Our take
As someone who plateaus easily, I was drawn to the Micro Gainz fractional plates. The 2.5 lb set (two plates) lets me add just a little weight per session. They are made of alloy steel and feel quality. However, $159.99 feels steep for just 2.5 lbs total. The magnets are strong and stay put during lifts. If you can afford it and need precise micro loading, they work well. But for casual lifters, cheaper options exist.
