scary,
when i have to add weight to a barbell for deads it depends what station im at, if im at the squat rack i just place it on the bars and load my first plate, then move it to the ground and load the rest...
at a power rack you can place it on the pins or on the bars and load the first plate, then put it on the ground...at least thats what i do...

What if you're at the platform?
My gym is like that except without those little things in front of the guy that look like they could be helpful for loading the bar. It's always a pain.
