Conclusion = 105 on one side, nothing on the other is as close as you can get.

A few weeks back Ethan asked a great question when unloading the weights off of a bar after back-squatting.  How much weight can be left on each side of bar when unloading it?  Will 45 pounds on one side and 0 pounds on the other cause the bar to topple off onto the weighted side?  My first exposure to weightlifting came from one of my best friends (and designer of this website) Drew Sgoutas.  Drew had a complete weight set in his bedroom and after school 2 or three of us would congregate there to lift.  He didn’t have the Olympic bar that we use here at CPC and one time when we unloaded one side before the other, we inevitably caused the un-weighted end to fly up and over and break his window.  To answer Ethan’s question, Eric and I put on our safety goggles watched an episode of Bill Nye The Science Guy and conducted an experiment.  How much weight can we put onto only one side of a bar before it tips.  The above photo will answer your question! (this does not mean that you SHOULD leave that much weight on one side of the bar though)
