180 kg? The French page (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halt%C3%A9rophilie) says 160 kg, the source page (http://www.hqusareur.army.mil/htmlinks/Press_Releases/2004/Mar2004/25Mar2004-01.htm) says 205 kg, and this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weightlifting says 180 kg.

I haven't found a difinitive list, but a quick snoop leads me to believe that the yellow plates are 15kg. You can see the weights on each of the other plates in the photo. Assuming the yellow ones are 15kg, I get a total of 160kg in plates and the standard bar is 20kg, for an overall total of 180kg. However, if you want to be really picky, I don't see any collars on the bar, so I suspect it may be a few kg light...but I could easily be wrong about that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lfishel (talkcontribs) 22:38, 11 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
