Question about Cathe's weights

Does Cathe include the bar when she tells us how much weight she has on. I always thought that was the case, but now I'm not so sure. For example, if she says she's putting on 30lbs and I match that including my bar, her bar always looks way more loaded than mine. If she is including the bar, then I'm doing better than I thought.
 
My understanding is yes. When she says the weight amount it is with the bar included...although I could be wrong...:)...Carole
 
Yes, she is including the weight of the bar.

For older workouts, her bar weighs about 15 pounds (MIS, PS series). Starting with the CTX series, she began using a bar which weighs about 5 pounds.

In the CTX workouts, she is actually using about 10 pounds less than she says she's using. When she says she's using a barbell loaded to 35 pounds, her bar is actually loaded to 25 pounds.

After that series, however, she tells us the real weight. (There's an explanation for this somewhere...)
