I’ll bet he wasn’t trying to have sex with it. It’s clear that he wanted to demonstrate that he could carry around weights with his manhood. I’m sure his plan was to start small and work his way through heavier and heavier weights. ---

That plate isn’t one of the Olympic heavy bar weights. It looks like one of the 1’’ bar weights. …’ … On the other hand if you were think of the 1 inch bar plates when you said that, probably better to keep that to yourself 😉 ---
