I got a good one for you /sci/
OP in >>>/fit/64556427 is lifting weights underwater.
A europoor >>>/fit/64557731 calculated the effective weight to be 20,02lbs
A mutt >>>/fit/64562876 calculated 150lbs
Who done did it better? And will this finally end the Imperial vs Metric units debate?

Duckduckgo gives the following for standard rubber bumper olympic plates
https://www.troyfitness.com/online-store/Solid-Rubber-Bumper-Plate-p116556558
Looks to be 17.72 inches diameter, 3.56 inches thick. Solid rubber with stainless steel inserts. Each plate weighs 45lb/20kg of course.

Imperial is better for everyday use. They have divisible amounts that are easy to imagine and are in sizes for human use. Same reason we use "small medium large" for t-shirts instead of centimeters of fatness.

you have no choice
when america is destroyed by leftists the usa will no longer be a first world country and no longer it will have the international influence it had before

without the usa, there are very few countries who use imperial units, thus everyone will use metric from now on
