## Description

You only need one! Loved by thousands; from gym owners and elite athletes, to average gym rats. The DEAD WEDGE fits in your gym bag and saves you the precious energy needed to smash Personal Records. DEAD WEDGE is simple, superior to other solutions, and built to last a lifetime. Here's HOW IT WORKS: STEP #1: Roll inner plate up the ramp until it locks into the loading groove. STEP #2: Load or Unload to choose desired weight. STEP #3: Gripping the plates, firmly roll the plates out of the loading groove back down the ramp and onto the floor. Here's what makes the DEAD WEDGE the superior solution while remaining so simple: ONE: All the benefits of a deadlift jack, and much more. The DEAD WEDGE works on a larger array of exercises, and any barbell you can think of. While a barbell jack only works with straight barbells, on the floor, the DEAD WEDGE can work with specialty barbells like trap bars, and works perfectly on deficit deadlifts, block deadlifts, and more. The DEAD WEDGE is also LIGHT weight, PORTABLE, and doesn't take up room in your home gym, or gym bag. TWO: Far EASIER, QUICKER, and SAFER than rolling the barbell over any other objects like plates, blocks of wood, etc. We made sure to make the DEAD WEDGE the perfect size to keep it from interfering with loading the next plate. Unlike how odd objects get in the way; creating a hassle and constant readjusting. The DEAD WEDGE uses a loading groove that locks the plates firmly into place. This allows you to get up and change the plates throughout your workout without worrying about the bar falling off and rolling away, making it far easier to load and unload plates with both hands. This also allows you to comfortably use it on raised platforms like block deadlifts. *Dead Wedge is a registered trademark of LIFT, LLC. *Sold as a single unit

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Stupid question here,So you roll the bar with one 45 on each side onto the wedge and then from that location, put the weight on and roll it back off?**
A: If you want to put four plates on a side, you have a problem.  The second, third and fourth plates are the same diameter as the first.  This means that you have to pick up the bar with one hand and slide on the next plate with the other.  Not hard for the second plate, but a pain for the third and fourth plates.  The Dead Wedge solves that problem.  You roll the first plate up on the wedge and then putting on or taking off the rest of the plates is a snap.   If you are only putting on one plate on each side, this device will not help you.

**Q: How is this better than old school rolling the inner plate over a five or 10 lb plate flat on its side?**
A: All trolling thoughts aside... it's all about the angles. The wedge has a gradual incline so you can roll your bar and weights up without any issues. It'll then sit in the groove without movement so you can switch your plates or do whatever you want. If you have the few extra bucks then this is more of a convenience to you. But as you stated, the old school way does the same thing, but I imagine the incline isn't as smooth and you get some chance of the bar rolling from you as the flat plate on its side doesn't have a designed groove as this wedge does.

**Q: Does it make sense to purchase a set of them, or does a single work efficiently?**
A: A single one works efficiently.

**Q: How many of you ordered two wedges an keep one on each side of the bar?**
A: I ordered 2 and for me it was a waste of money. Its very lite and I have to walk to each side of the bar and bend over to lad weights anyway. The amount of work it adds when your loading heavy plates is so negligable as to be silly. Honestly for me the second one is just one more thing for me to kick out of my way before I start lifting. I do keep one on my platform in my garage and one in my gym bag so I did find a small use for the second one. But I deadlift in the commercial gym very seldom.

    Simple and effective.
  

*by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2023*

Just add a pair of plates to your barbell and then roll it onto the deadwedge, then add more plates.  Voila!

    Good as a Last Resort …

While my gym has a bar jack for changing plates, I have been to several that do not.  Changing plates on a deadlift bar without any type of lifting mechanism is miserable/annoying and can lead to unintentional injury.  The DEAD WEDGE is a convenient tool to have on hand if a jack is not optional, but it’s convenience is limited to the number of plates you have on the bar.I am lucky to have a family member with the space and resources necessary to build a solid all-around gym during this quarantine mess.  In constructing this personal gym, we have added numerous tools to accommodate just about everything imaginable to cover any facet of powerlifting/bodybuilding training.  In order to avoid unnecessary clutter and conserve space, we added a pair of DEAD WEDGES to the gym.  Two were bought (they are sold individually) so plates could be changed on each end simultaneously.The simple premise of the wedge is roll the inner plate up the wedge ramp into its “plate groove” and provide enough of a lift to allow the outer plates to slide off without having to lift the bar end to do so.  While the idea is simple and somewhat effective, the more same-size plates you add to the bar makes it more difficult to use, especially if you are loading/unloading multiple 45 lb. plates to accommodate significant weight variances between/among lifters.  When you get to 4-5+ 45lb plates on each side, a trial-and-error method is necessary to roll the bar up the ramp and not “overrun” the ramp.  The lift provided by the wedge is much lower than a jack provides, so there is a tendency for plates to “scuff” the floor when removing then.Honestly, while the DEAD WEDGES do offer a space saving benefit, we are probably going to opt for a bar jack and just keep the wedges as a gym bag extra for emergency purposes.

    Awesome product with some inherent limitations
  

*by N***G on Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2020*

This is a great time and energy saver for anyone loading up multiple plates on their deadlifts or olympic lifts. I love that it is orange (highly visible) and it seems to be made of high-quality material that will hold up for years. I have a home gym now but wished I had this in college as its easy to pack into a gym bag and take with you to the gym.Just remember that you still need to struggle to get that first plate on and last plate off - the wedge will only help you with every plate after the first. To get around this problem I load my first plate on each sleeve while the bar is on the rack and then move the bar down onto my platform. Then I roll it onto the wedge and load up additional plates. When I'm done I use the wedge to take off all but the last plate and then rack the bar to remove the final plate. This way I am always able to conveniently add/remove weight.My process won't work for everyone's setup so just be conscious when buying that the wedge will not remove 100% of the inconvenience surrounding adding weight to a bar that is on the ground.
