How thick is a 45lb plate?
Just wondering because I stacked 7 of them for box squats on my DE Squat day
No Milk, no.
Milk is for babies. When you grow up, you have to drink beer.

Doesn't matter. Just write down the number of plates you sat on. When you box squat, always use those plates so that you have something to measure progress against.

it depends on the brand. some rubber coated plates are super thick (like the york training plates) and others are not.
