When someone says they squat, deadlift or bench 225lb, do they mean 4 plates (45lb each) + the bar, or 5 plates?

5 plates in total. The wonky balancing helps your muscle stabilisers.

what the fuck is a plate? Just call it the weight it is

How did this plate meme come about?

>>37840188
The total weight which includes the bar.

2 plates aside (and bar) weigh about 205.

The manufactuters don't deduct the weight of the material that occupied the space where the holes (in the plates" are, so each "45" is actually closer 40

Total weight of 225 is actually:
45lb bar + 2 "45s" aside + 2 "10s" aside

>holes in pl8 not accounted for in the total weight
Seriously, i hope this is a joke.

You only count the weights on one side, and not the bar.

So 225 is 5 plates
