Body Solid OSR300S Olympic Weight Set Specifications & Features

Weight Plates
In total, the Body Solid OSR300S Olympic Weight Set allows you to lift up to 300lbs of solid steel mass. It should be stated here that this product is not for beginners, although we hope that that point will already be clear just by taking a look at the picture.

So, what does it offer to professionals? Well, there are 2x45lbs plates, 2x35lbs plates, and then an array of lower weight plates all the way down to 2x2.5lbs.

Construction
The "Olympic" in Body Solid OSR300S Olympic Weight Set isn't just there for effect. This weight set is actually built to Olympic standards, meaning that the bar is exactly the right length as per the guidelines for Olympic weight lifting, and the hand grips are equally fitting of the criteria.

As far as materials are concerned, the set is built from a range of products which results in absolute durability. Cracking, peeling, chipping and rusting will be present absolutely no problems to the user, and the weight plates are equally as high a quality - with no chance of them being smashed or broken.

Extras & Add-ons
The Body Solid OSR300S doesn't provide us with any add-ons or extras, except for the limited warranty which can be customized from between 1 year to 5 years. To be honest, 5 years is probably not necessary, because if there is no problem with the product out of the box, it is highly unlikely that it will develop an issue down the track (as the result of the incredible manufacturing process).

Our Rating of the Body Solid OSR300S Olympic Weight Set
If you are looking for a comparable weight set to those which are used in the Olympic Games - the Body Solid OSR300S Olympic Weight Set is probably the ultimate bet. This product is the epitome of quality - and at every junction, there is something to be happy with.

From the construction of the bar (which can withstand far more load than 300lbs) to the individual construction of the weight plates, the manufacturers have not left anything to chance. Hence, if you can afford the product (and that's a big "if") - you will likely be satisfied with the equipment for years to come.

Overall - the Body Solid OSR300S Olympic Weight Set gets 5 stars from us - with price and quality combining to create a near perfect product.
