Looks like a ton right? But it's only #245. The plates are the old Kraiburg super thick 25kg training bumpers, they're 5 - 6" thick.

.

I have seen Cena get into the low 400's on regular plates though.
Then that would be 265, not 245  ;)

Bumper plates, the clues in the name.

yes but there no need for it to be that thick.
Reminds me off those shitty black plastic weights filled with cement that look huge but weigh about 5kg.

None really, they're back from when those black training bumpers were new on the scene. For some reason all the #25kg were made that way, and that series of bumpers was so cheap and decent that no one cared.  The #25kg were sold cheap after a bit, some places blew them out at $ .50 a pound.

Some guys liked them for overhead work like axle and log press. They're a bit larger than some #45's, so you could mix iron and bumper, and still have the safety of a bumper plate. Most of the time coaches just used them to weigh down things or stacked them and used them as a stool.
