I realized this today and it blew my mind. I'm so confused, /fit/. Should I have been counting the bar this whole time?
>>
of course you fucking count it. If you weighed the bar it would total 180 not 135

If your bar is oly then you add the 45lb. If not, you add the weight of the bar. Measure your weight then your weight while carrying the bar

You're a fucking moron, and I'm glad you're not infecting a public gym with your stupidity.

11x180 lbs is bretty gud though.

I've been meme'd, brahs. I was always told factoring in the bar was for e-stating dyels.

You are squatting your bodyweight too, so add your own 180lb and say you are squatting 360 with just 1pl8
