On the smith machine at our gym u have to take 10 pounds off because of the 35 pound bar. Due to counterweights. So what i work out with would actually be 255 but the way i was told it means i am really lifting 245.
Smith Macines are good for one thing - melting them down and making dumbells out of them.
