Bumper Plates

Garage Gym for me alone.

The rogue echo.......I think is what mine are called.

They were on par with everything else I found and you get the rogue quality.

Dicks sells the ethos ones for a bit cheaper I believe.

I have AgainFaster plates for my garage gym because they were on sale. Pretty much anything will do for single person use because almost all of them are made in the same chinese factories. If it were getting beat to hell in a crossfit gym, I would say go with whatever has the best warranty, but one person likely won't abuse them THAT much. There are a few made in the USA if that matters to you.

If you haven't checked them out, look at Fringe Sport. I ordered a barbell from them and a few other things and everything is priced well, ships free and fast, and the owner is a good dude to deal with.

I ordered the following plates
2-35
2-25
2-15
4-10

Thats 235 with bumpers... I have 350 additional pounds in steal. I use the 35s and 25s + steal for heavy deadlifts. There was really no point to order 45# bumpers for me.

Yeah, the Echo versions seem to be a decent price point for me. I have iron plates and I am looking at upgrading in the coming months. What about bars. Some of the price on barbells are crazy. Does a higher quality barbell make that much of a difference?

I think I paid 190 for my barbell from fringe. Wonderbar 2. It's better than the rogue bars ar my gym, but also sees much less abuse.
