i believe that does include the weight of the bar but everybody uses different bars. i know cathe uses 15lbs barbell before she puts any weight on it. kassiaDarcy Ledman <exercise.junkie@...> wrote: When Cathe or any instuctor tells us how much weight she is using, does that include the weight of the barbell???

Typically, when stating weights, it does include the weight of the barbell. So if she says 30 pounds, then that is the weight of the bar plus what she put on the bar, so don't put 30 pounds on your bar! LOL
