      You are literally brain fricking dead. I won't even try to explain this to you because you are too fricking stupid to comprehend such a simple thing.

      It is though: further center of gravity is negligible, wobble doesn't really happen, grip shouldn't be an issue if you're a grown man.
      I still load flat side out, but it's only because I was taught that way. You can ape out and scream all you want, but I just wanted to know your take. homosexual

    Flat side out always senpai. Homosexuals do it the other way and they're gay.

    easier to grip the plates when you load them flat side out

      I find it to be the opposite. With the flat side out, I have to use both hands to get them off the previous plate, with numbers out I can just grab the lip and pull them off one handed.
      To answer OP, it doesn't matter, and if you're worried about what people might think about you based off how you load the plates you should probably kys

        You guys are so sensitive. I don't give a frick what people at the gym think of me and I'm not worried about which way I load. Flat side out btw. I just wanted to know what everyone's thoughts about it were

      I'm not that weak. Gripping a 45lb plate should not be an issue for a grown man from either side

    Flat side out signals that you're into receiving homosexual sex, whereas flat side in shows that you're the one doing the fricking.

    outside and I don't want to hear a fricking word about it. the further the center of gravity it is from the center, the better it works your stabilizers -> a better more solid more tight bench.

      I won't even read your opinion so if you wrote flat side in you're gay and should have a nice day. Anyone below 3pl8 bench is a subhuman beginner lifter

              Yeah, but what if it's a 35lber trying to act like a 45er, like the plate in the bottom picture? Or is that how you got your 2pl8 bench, by hiding 35s in the middle... You sneaky queen

                Maybe your little brain can't see the difference between 45s and 35s but mine doesn't have that problem. You need to start going to the gym my black friend.

                Yeah, I'm trying to hide the fact I fricked your mother about 20 years ago, we tried to abort the baby but that motherfricker had too strong will to live. Now he's alive but the hammer on your mother's belly left some developmental damage...

      if you cared about weight distribution for working stabilizers you would use clamps or smaller plates to load the bar further out. you're a moron if you think the orientation of the plates has anywhere near the same effect as just putting a 2.5 lb plate on outside the 45s or loading a 35 and a 10.

    the best way to load them is in a completely random and nonsensical order, some facing in and others facing out

    thats the only way to repel the radiowaves from reading your thoughts while you lift and stealing the secrets of the subconscious human hivemind

      Fricking amerimutt with his non binary plate fluid bullshit. It's either flat side in (the gay moronic way) or flat side out (the right way)

      I agree with Rippetoe. First plates are flat side out. Remaining plates are flat side in. It’s just how I learned in school

      >first plate flat side out, all others flat side in
