This set of weights makes setting up your barbell easy!

Hmm..seems over engineered to me. Just buck up and stack the weight.

I mean, you’re going to lift the weight anyways… what’s the point in making loading them easier? 😅

Or just use a jack like everyone else

"This is my son's friend Jared. Before I hear any wise cracks. Jared has been battling lung cancer, and we nearly lost him. Recently, he was given the green light to exercise. Today his arm measured 8 1/4 inches and his legs just over 12". and he's at ZERO % body fat. I'm taking him under my wing. Stay tuned for Jared's progress. Jared and his friends at Body Alive are forever grateful for the support from all of you. Keep the kind words coming, it means a lot." Source: Body Alive

Until someone playfully pressed the lever

Orrrrrr you just pick up the heavy weight and get stronger

That looks like it would be more of a pain than just doing it the normal way

If you can't set something up, you shouldn't be lifting it.

Fucking gay

@grok what's the meaning of interesting as fuck ??

Or just don't be a fanny.

Never had trouble getting my bar in the hole the old fashioned way.

The pussification of weight training.

Cool mechanism, but I can imagine it'll be slightly unbalanced when doing compound movements; less of an issue doing single plane movements like bench press.

Yea if you’re a pussy. Just stick the pole thru the hole

It comes with a box of tampons

Broken toe waiting to happen

I feel like part of the workout experience and struggle is managing the whole process, including racking/unracking your plates. Besides, while spoiled day in/day out in a perfectly controlled environment, a little practical application lifting is probably a good thing.

Much less complicated way to add standard plates. Plus I woul love to see the drop test on these over engineered plates.

Good for the beginners. But legends prefer the other ones.

Does this totally lock in against the bar? What if you need to dump the weights, that's garbage.

Each plate cost $5000

Look safer to me for sure

Interesting

Nice

If you can put the plates on you are the problem

Erm, no! That handle lever releases too easily. Besides, what's the point? I wonder how much it cost to invent that, and to find someone to help market it.

The first weight is never the issue. It's sliding all the next plates cuz they scrape the floor

How much does ONE of those shits cost though

why

Gay as fuck

Mark my words this is NOT the future

Has it ever been that hard? It's really not that bad.
