How Much Does The Bar Weigh?

    Is there a standard weight for the bars used in squat racks/bench presses at the gyms (and if so, what is it?)

    In the US, it was always 45 pounds....but I'm guessing it's not as simple as a straight conversion?

    If it's a standard olympic bar, which it should be in most gyms, it'll be 20kg...
