Embodiment Construction

[0036] Preferred embodiments of exercise equipment that combine free weights and stacked weights to provide improved functionality and performance for weight training equipment are described below.

[0037] figure 1 , 2and 3 show front, side and top views, respectively, of the exercise device embodiment 101. The apparatus is provided with at least two means of providing weight lifting resistance; a free weight assembly or barbell 102 comprising free weights 103A, 103B mountable to a free weight bar 105; Adjustable resistance device 107, stack weight cables are connected between rod 105 and stack weight assemblies 111A, 111B. The apparatus is also provided with an elevated conditional support means 113 such as support cable assemblies 115A, 115B connected between the pole 105 and the weight sensitive engagement assemblies 117A, 117B, engageable to the support frames 119A, 119B of the frame 145 .

[0038] The bar 105 of the free weight assembly 102 is provided with a means fo...

Abstract

A combined free and stack-weight fitness apparatus (101) utilizes a combination of free weights (103A, 103B) and stack-weight assemblies (111A, 111B) to provide multi-mode fitness training. The total training resistance is a combination of free-weight resistance and stack-weight resistance transmitted to the barbell by cables (109A, 109B). A pair of overhead cables (115A, 115B), attached to a barbell (102), provide vertical support until a substantial portion of the weight on the barbell is borne by the operator.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of fitness equipment, in particular fitness equipment utilizing free-weights and stack-weights. Background technique [0002] Despite the variety of sports and muscle-building machines and activities available, free weight lifting has always been the workout of choice for many athletes. Lifting free weights allows for unrestricted movement during weightlifting, very close to the use of human strength in many recreational and athletic activities. The reproducibility of weight selection for free weight lifting is high compared to mechanics using levers, cams, and resistance components like springs and hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders. Also, the uniform resistance provided by the free weights is not affected by the wear of mechanical parts and other components. [0003] One disadvantage of limiting the use of free weights is the need for one or more supervisors, especially in strength training situations where ...
