KIT & RACK
SUPERPUMP

Domande frequenti - Kit-rack SuperPump

• What is the difference between SuperPump plates made of PU and those made of vinyl?
  Polyurethane (PU) plates have a metal core covered with moulded polyurethane, offering greater resistance to repeated impacts and scratches. Vinyl plates have a more economical and lightweight coating, which is susceptible to damage from impacts against sharp edges. For commercial fitness studios with high footfall, PU is the right choice; for personal training studios, home gyms or settings with less frequent use, vinyl is suitably sized to meet requirements.
• Are SuperPump barbells compatible with Olympic weight plates?
  No. SuperPump barbells have a diameter of 28 mm, whilst Olympic discs have a 50 mm bore. The two sizes are not interchangeable, even with standard adaptors. If you need a barbell for classic strength training with bumper plates or Olympic discs, the correct category is weightlifting and powerlifting barbells, not the SuperPump.
• How much does a complete SuperPump kit weigh?
  The PU kit (item no. 1129) weighs a total of 19.5 kg, including the barbell, pairs of weight plates and collars. The vinyl kit (code 1133) weighs 18 kg in the same configuration. The barbell itself is relatively light, with most of the weight distributed across the modular plates, which allow the load to be varied from exercise to exercise within the same session.
• How do I choose between the Small and Large Pump Racks?
  The Small Pump Rack is designed for personal training studios and training rooms with up to 10–12 active stations. The Large Pump Rack accommodates more kits and is the ideal solution for commercial training rooms with 20–30 participants. The choice depends on the maximum number of simultaneous users and the space available against a wall or as a room divider. If in doubt, it is more efficient to opt for a larger rack rather than having to add a second unit later on.
• Are the lock collars and springs interchangeable?
  Yes, both attach to 28 mm diameter barbells and serve the same purpose of securing the weight plates. Lock collars provide a more secure grip for repetitions using weights at the upper limit of the set; steel springs are quicker to fit and remove, which is handy for circuit training where you frequently change weights during the same session.
• Can I buy just the spare parts without the full kit?
  Yes. Pairs of plates (in PU or vinyl), standard and Iron Super Pump barbells, Lock Pump Bar collars and pairs of springs are available as individual items. This is the ideal solution for repairing damaged existing kits or for putting together custom sets with weights not included in the standard kit.
• Is the SuperPump kit suitable for pure strength training?
  No, that’s not what it’s intended for. The kit is designed for Pump classes involving low loads and a high volume of repetitions set to music. For strength training involving heavy squats, bench presses, deadlifts and Olympic lifts, you’ll need 50 mm barbells with the corresponding bumper plates and racks or power racks rated for the load.
• How many kits are needed for a training room with 25 participants?
  Allow for at least 25 kits plus a stock of 10-15% (approximately 3 additional kits) to be rotated during routine maintenance or when components need replacing. This ensures that the classroom remains fully operational at maximum capacity at all times, without having to cancel or reschedule workstations during lessons.
• How does the Super Pump Iron barbell differ from the standard model?
  The Iron version has a more robust finish, designed for more intensive use and greater durability. Both models retain the standard 28 mm diameter and are compatible with the same plates, lock collars and springs. The choice between the two depends on the expected frequency of use and the environment in which they will be used.
• What type of flooring is required for using SuperPump kits?
  Pump kits are designed for light loads, and the plates do not undergo free falls in the same way as Olympic bumpers. A standard-thickness rubber sports floor or sports parquet is sufficient. For vinyl kits, a continuous surface without sharp edges is preferable, as this reduces the risk of scratches and tears to the covering during landings and take-offs.
