How heavy is that?

So long as those are standard sizes, that's either 190 or 195 pounds (I'm having trouble telling if the smallest weight is a 2.5 or 5). 86-88 Kilos for those who use the standard measuring system.

I'd say it's 100kg: bar is 20kg, big red ones are 25kg, greens are 10kg, smaller reds 2.5kg and locks 2.5kg. That's 220 pounds.

Let me rephrase it to at least U.S. standard sizes:
bar is 45lbs (~20.47kg), plates (big red ones) are the same as the bar, greens are 25 pounds (11.34kg), smaller reds are 5 pounds (2.25kg), and locks are negligible. I've never heard of the combined weight of 2 locks reaching even 1kg, or even 1lb for that matter [url="http://www.amazon.com/Power-Systems-8609-Standard-Lock-Jaw/dp/B003G09XDQ](example)[/url]

Perhaps Ukraine follows your mentioned standard (pretty logical, I hadn't even looked for locale based evidence on my first post), but I'm still unfamiliar with a lock being a non-neglible weight, could you show me one?
