Nope; why put the center of gravity further out? Exact same weight just harder to balance. I'd rather stay safe and do it with a DB

Exactly, harder to balance. Makes it more challenging.

That is pretty impressive. I would probably kill myself, lol.

 

[Fabulous One]

I would definitely kill myself.

Fabulous One: Is that with 225? Impressive. Careful you don't take out the door.

^ says 135x3... but it does look like more than 1 plate on each side.

 

[TexasTitan]

Or it could be a "buggy plate" aka made of rubber and meant to be dropped.

Come train with me, we have 150's, 175's 200's and the "ronnie colemans" the 250's. Look into kettlebells, i like them much better than dumbells.
