Listen, buddy — I get it. You never thought that you’d need smaller weight plates than 2.5lbs. After all, change plates cover your bases pretty well already.
But haven’t you wondered why your arm and shoulder strength always lag behind? Sure, these are smaller muscle groups than those in your legs. But their lack of progress mostly boils down to getting pummelled by the same loading scheme used to progress squats and deadlifts, by adding 2.5-5lbs per side.
Instead of forcing 5-10lb jumps on overhead presses and biceps curls, these lifts should be loaded in a more sensible way — by adding weight in smaller increments of 1-4lbs.
Our fractional weight plates are a must-have for your gym, here’s why they deserve your hard-earned cash.

They fit my Olympic bar nicely and do the job.
Hey there, Thank you for the great review! Every half pound counts in your powerlifting journey. We are glad these fit so well and we hope they make adding weight a fraction of the work. Happy Lifting, Andrew and the B.o.S Team
Great plates good for linear progression
Hey there, Thanks for the great review. The Fractional Plates may be small, but they make a big difference in progression, for sure! Time to get those gainz, bit by bit! Thanks again, and happy lifting! Kat and the B.o.S. Crew
Bought these a few weeks ago and they have been an absolute game changer for helping me bust through plateaus! If you're like me and have a hard time progressing lifts like bench or OHP then I'd highly recommend this product! Great quality for the price. An underrated home gym product in my opinion.
High quality, cheaper than elsewhere, fits on standard olympic barbell -- very happy with them.
Thanks for the review! Happy to hear you are pleased with our pricing and quality of our B.o.S. Fractional plates. That makes our day when our customers are happy! Happy lifting! Irene and the B.o.S. Crew
Purchased this set of plates and have been mostly pleased with their performance. These have been within their stated weight tolerances and have been useful for their intended purpose. Haven't tried them as ninja throwing stars yet.. but hopefully soon! I wish there was an option where these came in a set from 0.25 through 1.5 or 2.5lb instead of all at 0.5 lb. Also these would be great if they were steel cut instead of cast iron. That would make them thinner and have a few more use cases . Overall a good useful set of frac plates.
Hi AJ, Thanks for the review on the B.o.S. Fractional Plates! We appreciate your feedback and definitely will pass it along to Kaevon about having different weights if there is enough demand for it! We are happy you are pleased with the product overall! Happy lifting! Irene and the B.o.S. Crew
