im 14 this may seem like a silly question but say if you had 2 25 kg weights on a barbell would it be easier to lift than if you had several 5 kg plates to make up the 50 kg
not easier, just more balanced
Technically, no, there is no difference.
If each plate actually weighs what it says it's supposed to weigh, than the total weight of the plates will be the same.
I would prefer two 25 kg plates over ten 5 kg plates since it's easier and faster to load and unload.
All the best,
