you do? ive always used a function on my cellphone to calculate KG's into lbs.. are there many different lbs'? if so, what is the formula to make KG's over to the american pound?
so im really up for 315lbs? sorry this was kind of confusing :p
if i went to a gym in america, i would pull 315 lbs considering 140kg is my absolute max?
If you are going to use an unwieldy, illogical, outmoded and anarchic measurement system imposed on you by your imperial ex-occupiers, the British, I would rely on you to do it accurately.

We only kept it for weight lifting because the numbers were bigger and sounded more impressive.

What? This is just a friendly exchange. What's a few pounds among friends. If I wanted to get picky, I would try to measure the weight of the black paint on the plates to boost my numbers a bit.

Haha, thanks. I never realised that true 45lb plates existed, I'll stick to the exact kg to lb conversion from now on to avoid confusion!

The Olympic plates look bigger with the bright coloured plastic -plus they catch the chicks eyes easier so they see what a "huge" amount of weight you're lifting

I'm a purist. I prefer basic black.

I so agree. An importaint part of weight training is to know what combination of plates makes it look as if you are lifting the most
