Quite heavy just not as heavy as the olympic one.

Answer:

The Olympic discus masses 2 kg for men and 1 kg or women. Sports suppliers have these weights and intermediate weights as well. Because of the ergonomic aspects of the sport a discus weight must be adapted to the strength of the athlete (too heavy a discuss can cause damage to the rotator cuff an shoulder), Non-adults would likely use the lighter 1 kg weight.
