- Are Calibrated Competition Plates Worth It?
It's no joke, Competition Calibrated Plates are pricey! But are they actually worth buying? In this video I review the Rogue Calibrated Competition Plates and give my take on who they're for - and who they AREN'T for.

Also, I’m not sure if you mentioned this or not but because the calibrated plates are so much thinner the entirety of the weight is going to be further away from the end of the sleeve. This is going to cause the bar to whip less. So, if you compete in powerlifting and you’ve been training with standard plates you might be thrown off on competition day when the bar isn’t whipping like you’re used to. This could be especially problematic on deadlifts. If you don’t compete in powerlifting I don’t think this aspect matters much.
That’s a great point! It makes a pretty significant difference

We do what we can do 😅
Who the hell doesn't know the metric system?
@@getstrongby4038 You'd be surprised.
i guess it is pretty off topic but do anyone know a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Max Mack Try Flixzone. Just search on google for it :)
Thanks for the awesome review! Literally just bought a whole set of these plates except for a pair of 5 lbs... those are still out of stock. Been waiting for A VERY LONG TIME for them to be in stock again. Such beautiful plates, and if you’re like me where the quality and style of your equipment you use makes a huge difference, then they are absolutely worth it. Work out to look sexy, might as well look good while doing it. Very motivating. #homegymgains
I'm so pumped you were able to finally catch them in stock! I absolutely love mine! I agree - people always say "weight is weight"... but why NOT make your home gym inspiring?
Do you feel the snug fit has damaged your barbell sleeves?
410 lb rogue deep dish set is on the site for 1,031 at the moment. i just ordered 2 sets of calibrated 25 kg, 1 set of 20 kg, a set of 15 kg and a set of 10 kg for 1,105 off the site... so thats 418 pounds calibrated. for basically the same price as there deep dish set. also editing my comment to say nice video, good points being made
Ngl I want a few sets of plates currently I’m shooting for the LBS version of the ivanko OMs the whole set then I wanna get some Titan urethanes in Kg for olympic lifting and the KG rogue calibrated plates for when I wanna get super accurate and if/when I decide to compete I figure I can use the calibrated change plates with the urethanes too so that’s a plus
Nice! I only have one pair of calibrated plates but they are chromed so a little bit more of a durable coating
These look really nice though, just a shame rogues Europe site is useless
I've heard Rogue's international market is a little spotty to say the best. Chrome calibrated plates would be sweet!
@@GarageGymGainz yeah it's really hard to get anything from them, the only thing they seem to restock is the echo bike and the bumpers
I'd love a full set of calibrated though, they are a pain to handle at first but I prefer it now, everything else feels really big and cumberse haha
Nice video man
Metric system rules!
It certainly makes more sense!
45s sold out within minutes today. Managed to get a pair of 5’s and 10’s though. Just missing the damn 45’s.
Do you already have the 55s?
I have a question what is the gold knob on the red Rogue plates on the inside?
It’s a weight they use to calibrate the plates!
Just bought 8 45’s a pair of 10kg plates and a bar today. 1inch plates on bent barbell no more.. I did my time.
Very nice!!
I always wanted bumpers but ive found a firm (albeit not rouge quality) that does a 157.5kg calibrated set for £575, im sold, they are really great to look at aswell
That's a great deal!!
Mind me asking what company this is? I'm looking for calibrated plates in the UK too and want the best deal haha
@@yungturtz6234 rhino strength, not bad plates, paintwork on them is pretty poor though
@@tropicalpalmtree appreciate that, solid price; probably the cheapest UK ones ive seen then!
@@tropicalpalmtree that's the only thing that puts me off is the paintjob but they seem like decent plates still
Good video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Does anyone know when Schisler first made plates? I tried Google, no luck.
Hopefully someone can chime in!
Does the snug fit damage the bar sleeves?
Not really! Maybe some scuffing on a coated bar but it’s worth it
Those are really nice, I could’ve pretty much bought those for what I paid for my Rep urethane equalizer plates! 😂😂😂
Maybe those equalizers aren’t cheap... they’re sweet tho!!
Don’t the 55’s mess up your lifting math?
It was a struggle, but I’m adapting 😂
🎥🔥
Thanks!
How do you call a metal weight calibrated an be 20g off?
Their guaranteed tolerance is +/- 10 or 20g, but most will be even less than that. 20g is nothing....
Calibrated plates are freaking sweet
They really are though!
Are you taking to yourself?
@@raveevar7836 yeah, I do it a lot 😅
Yes, especially if your going to compete.
Definitely so!
If they’re even in stock lol
That’s a big BIG “if” too. I’ve been waiting on 5lb calibrated plates forever 😅
@@GarageGymGainz
I’ve heard of this new company called weightitout.us and their plates are damn near calibrated plates. They’re fairly affordable imo
@@basedabdu8653 dang, those are SUPER thin!
@@GarageGymGainz They are in stock right now.
I don't know of any cheap plates that are that far off, by several pounds, to skew a lift. Most are fractions of a pound off if that.
I've only weighed a handful of plates, and I've seen a few that have been at least 2lbs heavy or light. That's not a big deal if it's one.... but (in an extreme case) if you have 5-6 plates on one side that are 2+lbs heavy, and all of the others are 2+lbs light, that'd be a 20+lb difference from side to side.
Now obviously that's pretty unrealistic, and I'm not saying everyone should run out and buy calibrated plates, but it's something to consider.
Weighing the plates and marking them is always a solid move!
No.
