Does anyone know of a physical shop selling olympic barbell plates?
The ones with bigger holes.
I really want to get 1.25kg plates or even smaller as the smallest my gym has are 2.5kg plates.
5kg increment everytime I do squats are getting a bit too much.
Cheers.

erm, fitness concept?

alternatively just get 2.5kg worth of magnets and just stick it to the existing plates whenever you want that small an increment?

Oops, I mean plates that fit an olympic barbell.
The ones with bigger holes.
Magnets? hmmmm, where do you get those? They come in different weights?

something like this la haha. i have not bought anything like this before so i dont know where to find. if go fitness concept or even weider you need to book the plates, they dont readily sell them. they only sell standard weights, not olympic ones.

yeah went to a few places in the big malls and they just sell standard ones.

weider bukit bintang, transmark subang jaya

Last time I saw Fitness Concept selling Olympic plates.., check it out at Great Eastern Mall.

In case anyone is interested, they're having a sale at Weider B.Bintang but only for the 1.25kg rubberised olympic barbell plates.
It's only RM10 each, I got 2 for myself.

Thanks! I've been looking around for this for a while...Fitness First and Stronglifts?

the sale is it still going? when is the sale end bro?

Not sure actually.
But there were at least another 20 plates there I think.
They might just want to get rid of it.

does they sell bar oso bro?

yeah, they carry all of weiders stuff.
But for olympic barbells, u need to order.
If normal thinner barbells they have it in stock.

Thanks! I went there yesterday, sale is still going. Bought 1.25kg plates, 10rm each...bargain!

body solid very expensive squat stand rm2000 , ridiculous.

It is not a squat stand, it is a power rack with capability to add cable pulldown. Or you have anything similar but cheaper?

Added on June 9, 2012, 11:19 pmDoes the power rack is included with the cable pulldown? What other attachment that it has?
