Not sure honestly, but it's a hunk O metal. I'd guess 80lbs or there abouts. Depending on surface and or grade, it can get heavy empty real fast. For example:

True, but most of the guys on that team are actually late 30s/40s +, a few closer to 50, and they will train 'till they die if I made them. The type AAA personality at its best.

Yes, I can relate to the personality type having that background myself. I checked on the weight of the sled and it said 75 lbs.

30 years of picking stuff up and putting it down, I can usually get within 3-5lbs accuracy. The other day I was doing an exercise with a new O bar at the gym. I thought it was clearly heavier then the standard O bar. Took it to the mens room to weigh on the good calibrated certified scale, it was 2lbs over.

Many people don't realize the 45lb plates at the gym often range +/- a few lbs.

I've weighed a few myself over the years for some non-believers and got the same results. It is more common than people would think. You get a feel for it after a time I guess.

There are brands that tend to be dead on for weight, but they cost more. Gyms are of course going to us the cheapest stuff possible, and +/- a few lbs a non issue for 99% of the population. What we did was weigh all the 45s, and mark them with a perm marker what they actually weigh, so at least the small % who did care, knew.

I'll just leave this here....
