I've been using the "cables" for triceps pull downs. I want to figure out how much weight I have been using. I've been using 3 and a half plates. How much is an average plate? And do you divide that weight by 2 or 3? Does that depend on how many pulleys?

    My guess is 35lbs for 3.5 plates...but I've seen 20 lb plates too, and other strange numbers. Just ask someone who works at your gym, they'll know for sure.

    Ok cool, I was assuming that they were 10 lb plates...that seemed to be the most common weight when I googled the question.
