Anyone know where I can pickup some 5lb and 10lb bumper plates from for cheap? I have seen some made by “Hampton”. Anyone used these before? Are they going to break in half the first time they hit the platform? Any quality + durable + cheap brands you guys found?
Nobody has anything to offer??
I am trying to teach some female athletes Olympic lifts and I want them starting in the right position off of the floor. The smallest bumper plate I have access to is a 25lb, which is way more than I want to start these girls at.
The only other option I have is to use 10lb plates (regular size) off of boxes. I don’t like the idea of them missing a lift and dropping a bar with two small 10lb plates on our platforms or boxes.

Mike, Thanks. I didn’t think to check Amazon. Those will work and are fairly cheap. I am purchasing these out of my own pocket b/c the college I work for finacially sucks. It would probably take an act of Congress just to try to get these purchased w/ our budget constraints.
What about the PVC light plates from Glenn Pendlay?
