He counts the barbell weight into his lifts

>he counts the barbell weight into his lifts

It's 20 kg that you are lifting up with your muscles

He posts same bait every week.

nigga, I count the collars and the dry skin-gunk stuck in the nurling

>tfw gym noobs tell me their lifts and then I say "you mean with the bar?"
>They get all dejected and realize they're not stronk

You are using your muscles to lift your own bodyweight too, do you count your own body in the lift?

I weigh 141kg and squat 60kg so that means I'm squatting 200 right?

although that is with the bar included so I should say 180?

>You are using your muscles to lift your own bodyweight too

I count the bar to make sure there's always 1 bar that I'm lifting you literal retard

t, faggot who can't add

Do you count your bodyweight when you squat. Why not it is weight you are lifting with your muscles.

most retarted comments ever.

>he doesn't count his bodyweight when he squats with a weighted barbell

The plate isnt 20kg because theres a hole in it

>use a women's bar because weak
>can OHP negative 10 lbs
>mfw no face

The figure accounts for the hole in the plate.

>counting plates that are less than 20kg

?

not when the hole is filled by the metal bar. you have to calculate the density and subtract it to get an exact figure

My 20kg plates weigh something around 21-22 kg

did you forget to peel off the plastic packaging they came in?

...

>Professional lifters and competitions count the bar
>some no-pic user on Veeky Forums does not include bar

GEE WHICH ONE IS RIGHT GUISE.

d-do i count both dumbells when saying how much i dumbell ohp?

no but you should get a scale and weigh your arms all the way from the shoulders to fingertips

don't count the bones though

oh yeah good point

>start off weak skelly
>cannot OHP a barbell
>start off with the 20lb pre weighted bar
>move up slowly over several months
>can finally OHP with a proper barbell
>now officially OHPing 0 pounds

Yes but that doesn't factor in retard because you always carry your body wieght.

>lift 1pl8, 60kg
>progress
>now at 2pl8
>get out calculator
>check weight of loaded bar
>100kg=2pl8
>/2=50kg=1pl8
>50kg/2=25kg
This means that a single plate of a 1/2pl8 lift weighs 2.5kg which results in an actual pl8 weighing 5kg. Little girls lift more than you do.

I do.

For squats, i count the weight of my body below the bar. To get this just lay on a scale with your upper back/head hanging off.

>he doesnt weigh all the weights before he puts them on the bar so he knows exactly what hes lifting
