Thanks guys. We had a frost here last night. So at 8 am when I got outside to carry the yoke it was still in the 30s. But after a few sets I was all warmed up. The yoke weighs 166 lbs and I was using 44 lb plates so thatās why the weights are all screwy.

Always weird weights with the yoke. The yoke weighs 166 and I use 4 44 lb plates and 4 45 lb plates. Makes my head hurt figuring it out.

MIxing kilo and pound weights guarantees a headache in the beginning.
Iām still jealous of your yoke bar.
Guys, just round upā¦seriously; 20lbs minimum.
Donāt do that, itās cheating.
I may have used 44s before and counted them as 45s. But Iāll never admit it.

It depends, if there are other kg plates it balances out, A 2.5 kg isnāt 5lbs, itās a little more, for instance. Unless you mean actual 44 lb plates, I was assuming you meant 20kg plates and were rounding down.
Fine, fineā¦count what it how you want.
I was channeling my inner-NHL strongman this week.
Iāve been collecting various (trash?) awesome containers, to turn into heavy carry toys. I filled a large bucket (bigger than the Home Depot standard) with packed dirt + some water to get it to 100lbs even.
I have about 1000lbs of fill/trash dirt so, itās better than dumping it I figure. Another bucket will get to 150-maybe 175lbs, depending on the āleft oversā I use from misc. yard/patio projects Iām finishing up.
Itās not quite rolling rocks out of the back woods like youā¦but itās a good start 
BTW, didnāt you mention a fire pit/BBQ project you had planned?
Just curious,
Be Strong out there.
HA, youāre right! I do have a few 20 kg plates.so I was rounding down. Thanks.
Eric, I bet those buckets are as hard or harder to carry than stones/sandbags. Here the fire pit. I still want to find some bigger stones.

- axle bar deads 115x5 225x3 275x3 315x3 365x3 385x1 405x1 425x1 315x5,5
- atlas stone lift 170x2,2 230x1,1 275x0 170x3,3
- sandbag lifts 140 and 200
I can get the 200 to chest height fairly easily but canāt shoulder it for the life of me. So I shouldered the 140 a few times.
