Q. What is "abnormal lifting"?
A. Hitechplates are made as a resource for the sport of Weightlifting and are to be used as Olympic Weighlifting tools. They are intended to be used respectfully and dropped as needed to teach the technique of the sport. Throwing a heavily loaded bar supported by a significantly light Hitechplate is abnormal and not the intended use. Consult a knowledgable Coach as to the rules of Weightlifting, the loading of weight plates, and their use.
