How much does a standard Olympic Bar bell weigh, like the ones for squating or barbell benching?

Are the EZCurl ones the ones that look like:

--v--v--

bad picture..I mean the bar with two divoted hand grips in the middle?

 

[LeanTeen]

Yeah, I hate those V grips but oh hell.

It actually weighs 44lbs.

 

[Robboe]

yep. bar = 20kg.

20kg = (20 x 2.2) = 44lbs.
