Rest & Calibrated Plates

Today was a rest day. Well not exactly.

I calibrated all my weight plates and all
my grip devices that you attach weight
to before lifting.

Now I know exactly the poundages I'm
lifting.

I was surprised at how much weight plates
vary. I had a 2.5 that weighed 3 lbs. I had
2-25's, both weighed less than indicated.

All my 10's weighed more than 10 lbs.
Same with my 5's, all weighed more than 5 lbs.

Stay tuned and stay Strong!
