Iron Woody Fractional Plate Weight Sets offer tremendous flexibility for all lifters at various strength levels.  Athletes, youths, women, men, seniors, advocates of progression training, and individuals rehabbing are some of the areas where small weight increases are sometimes desirable.  But what puts Iron Woody’s Fractional Plates head-and-shoulders above the competition? 

• Quality –  The plates are made from high-quality, powder-coated steel (not aluminum).  Each plate is machine etched with its weight for easy identification.  They now come in Olympic plate size (2” center diameter), and Standard plate size (1-inch center diameter).
• Price – An Iron Woody eight-plate set costs only $49.95 + s/h. 
  (That is two each of - 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 1 lb. plates in each set.) 

  Compare our $49.95 price to some of the other fractional plate offerings that can start off around $100, and go up from there.

• Flexibility – Like all fractional plates, they allow you to make weight increases in as little as 1/4 lb. increments on each side of your Olympic bar.  That’s just a 1/2 lb. total increase, versus the normal 5 lb. increase with the usual two 21/2 lb. plates.

  That also means you can increase weight in 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2, 2 1/2, 3,
  3 1/2, 4, 4 1/2 lb. increments before you would get to the usual 5 lb. increase.  In some difficult exercise, increasing your weight by 5 lbs. is just not manageable or necessarily safe.  It is important to control the weight increases, so that the body is able to grow in size and strength without failure or injury.

Have a look at what one customer has to say about Iron Woody Fractionals:

Fractional plates are a necessity for some of the supplemental exercises which I use with my athletes.  Before you could get a beautiful set of mini-plates from a competitor for $170 or so.  They are perfectly crafted and exact in weight to tenths of an ounce.  Formerly, $170 was out of my price range, and I didn’t care about tenths of an ounce, so for years I used these enormous 1/4 lb washers that I bought at a nut & bolt supply company. However I now much prefer the convenience and price ($50) of the Iron Woody Fitness fractionals. These are a very high quality product at an excellent price.
