I've heard anywhere from 15-45 lbs. 15 would be my guess. Post this on the anabolic board to get more resonses. IP: Logged |

It also depends on how loose the guide shafts are and how many pounds it is counterweighted to... D. IP: Logged |

It varies according to the manufacturer. A gym I used to go to had a Smith machine with a bar that weighed 77 pounds. IP: Logged |

Depends on counterweight. The Smith at my gym has a 45 bar with 20 pounds of counterweight. I think that's pretty standard. Bjaarki ------------------ BECOME SOMEONE'S HERO! IP: Logged |
