Benefits of technology

The present invention is an exercise apparatus that includes a horizontal frame with a joint attached at the ends, and an upright member that can be attached to the joint at an angle. The upright member is filled with a weighted material, which may be a granular or pelletized material, and a solid. The exercise apparatus can have multiple upright member pairs with different lengths and weights. The technical effects of this invention are improved exercise flexibility, versatility, and a unique weight lifting experience.

Problems solved by technology

These apparatus do not provide adequate muscle conditioning or timing for proper gymnast training.

Embodiment Construction

[0015]The following detailed description is of the best currently contemplated modes of carrying out exemplary embodiments of the invention. The description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention, since the scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims.

[0016]Broadly, an embodiment of the present invention provides an upgradable weight training device to develop forearm and shoulder muscles. As seen in reference to FIG. 1 an embodiment of the weight training device 10 is shown being utilized by an athlete for shoulder and forearm muscle conditioning.

[0017]The weight training device 10 is formed as a substantially U-shaped apparatus having a horizontal member 12 at the base of the U and a pair of upright members 14 as the upright legs of the U, extending at an angle from the longitudinal length of the horizontal member 12. The upright members 14 may be coupled to the horizontal ...

Abstract

An upgradable weighted training device to help condition and train forearm and shoulder muscles. The angular bar design helps put leverage against the user. By turning the apparatus, the user is able to activate the forearm muscles more effectively through the full range of motion.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to exercise equipment, and more particularly to an apparatus for weight training for shoulder and forearm muscles.[0002]Certain skills in gymnastics require a “shift” or flexion of the forearm through a range of motion. Developing this shift strength and timing for an athlete is essential to being able to perform certain skills within the sport of gymnastics.[0003]With conventional weight training equipment, there are only straight bars or dumb bells. These apparatus do not provide adequate muscle conditioning or timing for proper gymnast training.[0004]As can be seen, there is a need for a system and method for activating the forearm and shoulder muscles more effectively through the full range of motion.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0005]In one aspect of the present invention an exercise apparatus, an elongate horizontal member having a joint attached at opposed ends thereof; an upright member releasably attached to the join...
