How the plate planner works+
Plate weight per side = (target − bar − both collars) / 2The planner searches the selected inventory for the closest balanced load at or below your target, then uses the fewest plates for that load. It never uses more pairs than you entered. If several combinations tie, larger plates are considered first.
There is no mixed kg/lb loading. Switching units resets the target, bar, collars, and inventory to common defaults for that unit. Sleeve space, bar rating, plate diameter, and equipment condition are not checked. Verify your actual hardware and load both sides equally.
