Deadlift Weight Change?

[BrianEE93]

What do you guys do to change weights on the deadlift? I have a little piece of rubber I roll the inside plate up on. I was thinking about some of those little hallowed out rubber squares that you can put table legs and such in to protect the carpet.

I just roll it onto a 10lb plate...not the best method but it works

[Mangekyou]

you can get those 'barbell jacks', dunno what the correct name is...

My gym has something similar to that, it's a large lever that lifts the weight up in the middle so you can un-rack both sides.

Another option: when you load up the barbell use one 45 lb plate on each side and then use 35's and smaller for the rest of the weight.

That is a nice idea but for the money I would like to stay with something simple.

That is what I have been doing now but I am about to run out of weights.:) I use a shrug bar for deadlifts and the one I have has kind of short plate holders. It can hold (4) 45s on each side but my 35s and 25s are the same width.
