sup /fit/when adding weights to a barbell, how do I do it to make it easier?liek, it's easy when the bar is above the ground (for squats for example)but for deadlifts and barbell rows, I'm not sure how to add plates or whatever to the barbell.Is it okay to have the barbell on the holders that are close to the ground, and then deadlift it and put it right on the gorund? (does that make sense?)Or is there a way to easily add and remove weight without putting the barbell on those holders.
uhh... lift the bar slightly with one handput the plate on with the otherwow that was hard
put the biggest on first? dumbass

plate the barbell while its on the rack and then lift it off.
To be serious. It can be a pain to slide a 45 lb on with one hand. The angle is a bit fucked. I have found a power rack with adjustable hangers that I can put very low to the ground. Load from there. Deadlift the weight, Step back and set it on the ground.
Put a 5 lbs plate on the ground and roll your barbells plate on top of it, now it's off the ground enough to add another plate easily.
Use the squat rack (or power rack whatever you prefer)Take the biggest plates on (1 each side)deadlift down and continue to add weight
>>451859Yahz. 2.5lbs are smaller and make it easier, but use what you've got.
>>451871Yeah, but if you're adding more 45s, you still have to lift the bar off the floor.I like the system where you load it on the lowest peg, lower it to the floor, and then do your deads.
