Stopped at 345. Done with my "heavy" bar. 345 is 2xBW.
I have 2 bars. One is my "light bar". I is about 32mm in diameter. My other bar is about 28-29mm, it always seems heavier. For years I used my light bar for all my ME, I told myself that the bigger diameter allowed me to lift more with it. I finally decided weighed the things, my light was about 42lbs and my heavy was 45lbs, so those are my two bars. I still lift with both. My heavy is black (look at most of my videos, it is with this bar) It is made my Ivanko. Now, I know when I lift with it, the lift is "legit". My light bar is chrome (it is in my original BW snatch video). It is made by Capp Barbell. I will still lift with it occasionally, mainly to judge progress in strength over the years.
I did order a Pendlay HD, so I know have a third, I will call it my O-bar. I assume, since it is Pendlay, it will actually weigh 20kg.
Jason, I like the avatar pic. Very cool...functional strength.

nice Pat! you keep talking about your heavy bar...what exactly do you mean?
Sean,
I second that. Pat what do you mean by your 'heavy' bar?
By the way, strong Back Squats man.
I think he has 2 seperate bars. Of those 2, one weighs more then the other. Diffenent thickness of bar feels different in the hands.
Close?
