“I just wanted a colored set of bumpers, and these were the best prices from an American company I could find. Can't imagine anything else being better. I would definitely order them again. They look good, and the quality is top notch. I only got the 90kg set, but plan on getting a pair of 25kg plates to have the whole set. If you're looking for plates, and your thinking about these, stop thinking and just get them. And no, I don't work for Vulcan. I'm just a normal guy who lifts in my garage.”

“the bumper plates continue to give off a strong toxic smell almost a month after I purchased these. I am not sure that this smell is going away.”

“I recently purchased the 340a lb set, and I am absolutely happy that I decided on Vulcan. These are a dead bounce bumper plate (very little bounce), so it was perfect for my home gym in the garage. Free shipping and cool colors-can't get any better than that.”

“Great piece of equipment, solid & sturdy. Was package really well even though Fedex destroyed the box. Non of all the pieces seems to stay in place and were not scratched. Awesome and very helpful costumer service when I called about assembly.”

“I received my Vulcan One bar in hard chrome shortly after they released it. It is an excellent bar with great knurling. I didn't think that it was very aggressive at first because it didn't eat up my hands like some. However, after a long workout, I realized that it was still grippy with sweaty hands. No chalk needed. I am very happy with my purchase!”

“After spending months researching bumper plates to try and find some that were high quality and did not cost $12 a pound, I came across the Vulcan color bumpers. After reading many good reviews stating that these were the best value for these types of plates, regardless of cost, I decided to go ahead and pick up a set of these. I am more than happy with my purchase and will be adding more plates to my set very soon. I would recommend these plates for anyone looking for some high quality bumpers.”

“This is a great axle bar for the price as long as you are looking for stubby length. I prefer the stubby length as it allows me to focus more effort on grip rather than balancing the bar. This bar really exceeded my expectations in quality. It's a solid piece of gear and the powdercoating offers just enough to keep the bar from being slick without adding too much grip.”

“Bought the needle bearing bar because I want a needle bearing bar (starting to do olympic lifts more often now...need a smoother spin on my bar) and this bar was on sale. It is made in U.S.A. and looked good on paper. The knurling is just right for me and the bar spins nicely. Haven't experienced the whip since I've only used relatively light weights. Good so far. Happy with my purchase.”

“Tastes great and I can really feel it improve my performance and recovery. Noticed an increase in endurance after only a week or so. Good stuff.”

“I was blown away at how excellent Vulcan's products are. After much deliberation I decided to go with Vulcan because of their shipping, cost for amount of weight as well as the outstanding reviews of their products. The weights are great, low odor, dead bounce with a solid inner ring. The bar I ordered with my package was the 28.5mm bearing bar and for the price its definitely one of the hidden gems of Vulcans stock. Its a great bar with excellent spin (seriously this bad boy spins) and a smoother knurling for every day training. I ordered my products on a Monday at my house on the east coast on Wednesday. Exceptional customer service and exceptional products”

“A massive piece of leather. I am mostly an Olympic lifter. I can't see any difference in support from my 6.5 mm belt, but perhaps at higher weight levels one could (I squat and deadlift in the 350 lb range). You need to be an escape artist to take it off, due to the stiff thickness. Get only the single prong version. I would prefer lumbar area added padding.”

HI Dean, Thanks for the review. A 13mm belt is fairly thick. Some prefer it and it will give more support. You will need to manually break in the leather by working it with your hands and as you wear it more and sweat in it, the leather will form to the contour of your body and provide more support. Take a deep inhale and retract your abdomen as much as possible when taking off a double prong belt. Will make it a lot easier.

“I wasn't expecting the bell to be so big. It about the size of a small bowling ball. The handle is roomy and easy to grip. Overall it seem like a nice bell. Is nothing like the cheap bells you find at box stores.”

Thanks for your review Kesabii. Yes, the Vulcan Absolute Kettlebells are larger than the typical rudimentary cast iron fitness kettlebell. The advantage of the larger size is that it will rest more on your body when doing presses, jerks and cleans. This will give the lifter greater control of the kettlebell and greater comfort. Another benefit of the larger size is more stability if using the kettlebell(s) for floor based fitness movements like renegade rows, pushups, and gymnastic type movements. Thanks for your purchase and enjoy!
