I gotta admit after using the Black Iron Beast tool I honestly don’t even know what total weight I’m repping. It’s something I never thought about, but it’s so nice not having to do the math and just putting whatever plates it tells me to on both sides.

I've used BlackIronBeast in the past and it's awesome.

However, I'm still the jackass standing at the squat rack with my phone calculator in hand trying to subtract 45 from 172.5 then divide by two and figure out how many plates I need to add to each side. I'm sure most people wonder why they let the special ed kid into the normal gym.
