About this product
The Micro Gainz Dumbbell Fractional 1.25lb Weight Plate set includes two black plates, each weighing 1.25 lb. Designed for weight lifting, these fractional plates allow for precise micro-loading adjustments on dumbbells. Made by Micro Gainz, a brand specializing in incremental weight increments, they help you progress in small, manageable steps to avoid plateaus.
Our take
I picked up the Micro Gainz 1.25 lb plates to help break through some stubborn sticking points. A pair of these fractional plates let me add just 2.5 lbs total, which is perfect for upper-body lifts where even 5 lbs can feel like a leap. The build seems solid enough, though they are just black metal discs. My only gripe is the price — for a small piece of metal, it feels steep. But if you're serious about progressive overload, these do the job. Just don't expect any frills.
