How much is 1 plate? 20kg or 45lbs?

>>42131849
approximately 15 ducks

>>42131864
thats wrong, average ducky is about 7-8 pounds.

Starts off at 45 lbs but over time with the decay of the material it will get closer to 20 kg.

Also, mass is a horrible way to measure how much you lift considering we're colonizing the moon and mars. Moonlets will be bragging about their 450 kg squats when in reality it's just 170 lbs.

>>42131909
what would be better way of measurement?

3 bowls

1pl8 is 20kg so if somebody tells you they lift 1pl8 that means that in total they lift 20kg. It's actually easier to lift 2pl8 because you have plate on each side and it feels more balanced where 1pl8 you only have plates on one side so you first lift for one half of the body and than you switch the plate to other side for balance. I currently lift 5pl8 but it's quite hard. My usual setup is 3<-->4 or 2<-->5 but never 1<-->7 because that would be just mad.

N, of course

>>42131922
Force, I.e. pounds or newtons. F = m*a.
a is gravitational acceleration which varies depending on celestial body
I believe eurofags use mass for everything because they didn't have a space program until recently

>>42131893
Don't be a pleb. If you gonna use duck you have to specify what kind of duck. This is like trying to compare a Euro centimeters to US centimeters.

>>42131922
newtons nigga
>tfw bench 15.5k newtons

>>42131970
7-8 pound ducks on average

>>42131949
>he doesn't know the difference between mass and weight
Fuck you are stupid

That's must be some obese American duck than. http://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/birds/m/mallard/ average weight 3 ponds !

>>42131977
15 thousand fig cookies do NOT only way 45 lbs you fucking autist

>>42131970
African swallow or European swallow?

>>42131999
Weight IS force, you dirty europoor.

>>42132015
according to wikipedia there are ducks below 1kg weight. the heaviest duck breed is the so-called jumbo pekin reaching up to 13.5 lbs.
so we looking at ducks between <1kg-13.5lbs

>>42132022
would it grab it by the husk? How heavy is a coconut?

>>42132031
Yeah no shit bud and that's how we measure pl8s while your dumb ass thinks people somehow use mass

>>42131849
20 L

>>42132084
a swallow carrying a coconut??

>>42132094
20L of what

>>42132062
Wait how do plastic ducks come in to the equation than ?

>>42131849
One American pl8 is nominally 102.058285% Euro pl8s.
Fact is, the same pl8 at the Equator and at the Pole will offer different resistance training. Someone lifting the same plate at the Equator will lift 99.4721% of someone lifting the same pl8 at the North Pole.
So, a nigger in literal Chad squatting lmao3pl8s will be probably squatting just 97.466% lmao3FREEDOMpl8s of a viking master race

The only way out is using Newtons.

>>42132113
we are using real ducks here. plastic ducks are the equivalent of fake weights

>>42132111
Duck feathers

>>42131849
Ye

Ducks are cute

>>42132136
but stone is heavier than feathers

>>42131849

>>42131909
>implying

Mass is acceptable on earth faggot, we'll start measuring in newtons once space lifting is an issue.

But are we talking Stone as British measurement unit or stone as a rock?

>>42131909
You can't even make gains in space, the lack of gravity will make you naturally weaker and unable to sustain muscle mass like you could on good ol' Earth.

>>42132172
Mass would be consistent across all planets it's the weight that changes

>>42132172
>it's acceptable that someone believes to squat 120 kg when he doesn't even lift 117 kg
"no"
>>42132192
>not wearing a couple of weighted vests all day everyday

>>42132093
kg is a measurement of mass which is not weight which is the exact point I made in my first post. Are you autistic or do you have horrible reading comprehension or both?

>>42131978
WHAT FUCKING BREED OF DUCK YOU STUPID CUNT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>42132219
check >>42132062
we don't know yet

>>42132203
Hurf, yeah i messed up.

What I meant to say is that its fine to use mass as a "weight" measurement on earth because gravity here is (generally) uniform and constant.

makes sense anon ty

>>42132215
In colloquial usage kg is a measure of weight, good luck with the autism though

All ducks a side the only way of really knowing is how much you weight is by calculating the Ray * circumference of the plate by distance of the bar from the ceiling. Of course you should ideally first measure the building otherwise if they building is higher than lower level than you get more oxygen and the weight gets smaller as gravity is lower in highly oxygenisad areas. That's why people disrespect CrossFit because they oxygenisad their plates to lift heavier where realistically because there is no internal pressure anymore if you are not in a building the weight automatically will go up. The trick is just to use your own gravitational pull to press it down to the ground which is much easier than lifting.

>>42132127
>Newtons
No. Newtons are using a conventional and arbitrary g force. If we want to keep it "the Metric Way" then MetricNetwons should be used. 1 Metric Netwon = 1kg * 10 m/s^2 = 1.02040816326530612244 SI N
Otherwise we may as well end up using FREEDOM NEWTONS aka lbf ( = 4.4482216 N) and be done with it

>>42132247
Enjoy getting butt blasted by moonlets and marslets putting up more kg's than you.

To be honest, force isn't the best measurement. We should use impulse (f * dt) to account for crossfit trickery.

Very funny shit poster...
Measuring weigh in fucken biscuits. It's like you don't even try.

Duck Plates! (woo-ooo) Everyday they're out there pumping Duck Plates!

199.86 Metric Newtons of feathers in a rainy day in Toronto would weight more than 45 lbs of aerodynamic slim iron pl8s lifted in a hot day in Dallas

and don't get me started on rotational velocidensity

>>42132488
Also let's not forget that round plates in EU are more circular where US ones are more oval

>>42131849
