Domande frequenti - Promo Training Kit

• What is a Sidea Promo Training Kit?
  It is a pre-packaged set of equipment sold as a single item. The kits are designed for specific purposes — complete sets of bumper plates, functional training stations, kits dedicated to glute exercises or proprioception — and make it easier to set up a training area by avoiding the need to order items individually.
• What is the difference between black rubber, PU and crumb bumper kits?
  Black rubber (9040/1K) is the most widely used option, offering good value for money in commercial weight rooms. Polyurethane (9040/3K) offers low deflection and controlled rebound, making it suitable for competitive weightlifting. Crumb rubber (9040/7K) uses recycled rubber granules, withstands heavy use well and is suitable for home gyms and boxing gyms where the precision of a competition platform is not required.
• Which bumper kit should I choose: 100 kg or 150 kg?
  The 100 kg kit meets the needs of a single athlete in a home gym or an entry-level station: typically 5, 10, 15 and 20 kg pairs. The 150 kg set adds extra 25 kg discs to handle heavier loads or to accommodate two athletes taking turns on the same station. For commercial weight rooms or gyms with multiple stations, the 150 kg set is a sensible starting point.
• Are the Promo Training Kits suitable for a home gym?
  Yes, several kits are specifically designed for home use. The Functional Home Kit (9024K), Essential Kit (2708K) and Starter Kit (0409K) cover the needs of a basic home gym. Those who already have a rack and a barbell can add to their setup with a 100 kg bumper weight kit. Portable kits such as the Traveller and Easy Training are also suitable for use in small spaces or on balconies.
• What kit should a personal trainer who works from home choose?
  The Traveller Kit (2708/1K) and the Easy Training Kit (0235K) are designed for portability: compact pieces of kit that fit in a bag and allow you to train clients anywhere. If the personal trainer also conducts outdoor metabolic training sessions, the Metcon Kit can be a second option to keep in the car or at the studio.
• Do the Glutes Kit and the Hamstring Curl Kit serve different purposes?
  Yes. The Glutes Kit (9121K) is designed to activate and strengthen the gluteus medius and maximus, typically using resistance bands, weights and equipment for hip thrusts and abductions. The Hamstring Curl Kit (9123K), on the other hand, targets the hamstrings and knee flexion. In a physiotherapy practice specialising in return-to-sport programmes or sport-specific strength training, it makes sense to have both.
• Does the Perfect Squat Kit replace a squat rack?
  No. It is a technical support kit for the squat movement — mobility, stabilisation, correction — not a system for weighted squats. To train with a barbell, you will still need a rack or a dedicated frame. The Perfect Squat Kit is useful when learning the movement, during rehabilitation, or as a supplement to an existing strength training programme.
• Do the discs in the bumper kits have a standard Olympic diameter?
  Yes. All Sidea bumper sets use discs with a 50 mm centre hole and an outer diameter of 450 mm, regardless of weight, in accordance with the Olympic standard. This allows you to perform the snatch, clean and jerk, and clean with the bar always at the same height above the ground – a necessary condition for correct technique and for a controlled bounce on the platform.
• Is the Proprioception Kit only useful in a rehabilitation context?
  No, its scope of application is broader. In rehabilitation, it is used to restore joint stability following injury, but it is also used in athletic training to develop core stabilisation, in lower-body training for team sports, and as part of the warm-up in strength training sessions to activate the stabilising muscles.
• Is it possible to customise the contents of a kit?
  The Promo Training Kits come with pre-defined configurations designed to cover common use cases. For specific requirements — such as a bumper kit with non-standard cuts, a bespoke mix of functional training equipment, or set-ups for gym design projects — you can contact the Sidea technical team directly to develop a bespoke solution for your project.
