Abstract

Devices, apparatuses, systems and / or methods related to weight plates. Specifically, the disclosed devices, apparatuses, systems and / or methods relate to nested weight plates including a first weight plate increment and a second weight plate increment configured to receive the first weight plate increment. The nested weight plates may include a turning mechanism including a turning circle and / or a screw. The screw may be received by the first weight plate increment such that rotation of the turning circle engages and / or disengages the second weight plate increment. In this manner, a user may select to total weight desired.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 61 / 286,034, entitled “TURN WEIGHT PLATE,” filed on Dec. 14, 2009, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND [0002] The present disclosure contemplates that weight training has been in existence for thousands of years. Uses of weight lifting may relate to health issues, sports performance, rehabilitation, and leisure activity. The advancement of health brings the development of weight lifting techniques. A better athlete may be created partially through improved weight resistance techniques. Weights may be used to help rehabilitate injuries. Further, weight lifting has grown and developed simply through leisure and professional weight lifters. [0003] Current weight plates in the weight room are all of similar design, existing in weight plate increments of forty-five, thirty-five, twenty-five, ten, five, and two and a half poun...
