lol [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_grade](military grade). I never gave this much thought until I bought some “military-grade” weight plates for my home gym. They were FAR lower quality than my other plates, but also cheaper. This isn’t even a matter of “which” military, this is a matter of the cheapest thing that technically meets standards.

Yeah people think Military means some kind of ruggedness or Nasa like stability, but it usually means it “meets the standard”, usually at a minimum. Marketing really took off and ran with that one.
