Use disc collars to train safely
It is essential to have a disc collar to secure weights on your bars or dumbbells. It prevents the weight from slipping during your exercises.
Our Smart Disc Collars are sold in pairs, since you need 2 for one bar, or 4 if you train with 2 dumbbells (ref: 8574652).
Keep your cast iron plates for longer by storing them correctly
Cast iron weight training disc plates will virtually last forever if they're kept far from moisture.
Store them in a dry place.
Dust them with a damp cloth from time to time.
Store them on your storage rack (ref: 8788246), a wall rack for plates (ref: 8796727) or on the bottom of a piece of furniture.
Our coach gives you some ideas for using your cast iron weights
If you have a dumbbell bar, you can do a standing press with one or two dumbbells.
Shoulder and triceps exercise:
- Standing press, 4×8 to 10 reps
At the end of your sets, try to have a 2 rep margin. Increase the number of reps and load as you improve.
