Multi-Angle Incline Dumbbell Bench Press

Abstract

Devices, apparatus, systems and methods for using an inclined weight bench for supporting free weights, being adjustable and customizable for allowing a weight lifter to work out on their own without a separate spotter. The device can have a multi-step spotters platform, a detachable bench assembly with a backside support frame positioned at 45 degree angle with variable adjustable inclination. The device can have a vertical support post fixed to a lateral ground support and dumbbell support frame having one horizontal beam. The device can have dumbbell cradles having enlarged surface areas that safely support and hold the weights, reinforced angled support braces with two feet members and adjustable seat with pin-locking fasteners. Also, a separate spotter can be used that sits on one of the steps and straddles the backrest to help the lifter raise and lower the free weights when needed.

Description

[0001]This invention relates to free weights, in particular to devices, apparatus, systems and methods of using an inclined weight bench for supporting free weights, having a multi-step spotters platform, a detachable bench assembly with a backside support frame with variable adjustable inclination, with a vertical support post fixed to a lateral angled ground support braces and dumbbell support frame having one horizontal beam with dumbbell cradles that safely support and hold the weights, and adjustable seat with pin-locking fasteners, for allowing a weight lifter to work out by themselves.BACKGROUND AND PRIOR ART[0002]The use of free weights is popular for weight lifters for performing exercises such as incline dumbbell chest presses, while the lifter is sitting or lying down on a bench or seat. However, there are numerous problems with current techniques if the lifter wants to exercise alone.[0003]A weight lifter acting alone has to first go and grab the dumbbells off the rack u...

Problems solved by technology

However, there are numerous problems with current techniques if the lifter wants to exercise alone.

These leans, stretches, and struggles greatly increase the risk of injury to the lifter's back, shoulders and elbows, and knees due to the rapid jerking action when trying to get the dumbbells into proper position to begin the exercises.

However, these devices fail to overcome all the problems with the prior art described above.

This device does not have any raised steps for a spotter to stand behind to adequately raise free weights up, which means a spotter could injure their back by having to bend their arms and/or their back.

Also, the inclined bench has a fixed height and can't be adjusted which restricts the lifter to one position so that small or tall lifters may have difficulty and possible injuries by having to adjust to the fixed height.

This can be both uncomfort
