Why Use 10lb Tech Plates?Tech plates are the predecessors to bumper plates. Before the technology and engineering existed to make high quality, lighter weight plates from rubber – or what you know as bumper plates – tech plates were the answer to hold a barbell at proper IWF height to start your first pull for the clean or snatch (or the deadlift for that matter).So why do you want to use them?As a new lifter, you want to lightly load the barbell, but still learn the proper position to start the bottom of their lifts. The 5# tech plates are great for this.You think you can’t trust any 10 pound bumpers to be durable.
