How do you figure how much weight to put on bar if WO manager has calculated 40 lbs? My bar weighs 13 lbs.

One idea is to load your bar to a total of 38 lbs (a 10 lb and a 2.5 lb plate on each end of your bar) and then wear 1 lbs gloves on each hand for a total of 40 lbs. I use my 1 lb gloves quite often with STS in order to get my weights just right.
