When someone says they can bench 150lbs does that include the bar? How much does the bar weigh? I am pretty sure it weighs 45lbs but i am not positive.

    The standard is 45lbs (I’ve seen some 30lb bars but they are less common) and yes people always include the bar.

    the bar normally weighs 45 pounds and it is included in your bench weight
