Abstract

A folding exercise rack, particularly a squat rack, is provided. The squat rack is movable between an operating position having a width and length to a storage position having a substantially reduced width and length. This allows for the squat rack to be set up in the operating position temporarily which allows for a user to remove the squat rack from a space after their exercise session and thus does not require that a user have a dedicated semi-permanent space for their squat rack. The reduction in width and length also allows for the squat rack to be easily stored, for example, in a closet, without taking up a large volume of space and with a relatively small footprint compared to the operating footprint. It also allows for the relatively easy transport of the squat rack from one location to another, for example, while traveling as complete disassembly is not necessary to achieve this reduction in the length and width directions.

Claims (6)

WE CLAIM:
1. An exercise rack comprising; two frames, each frame comprising a rack leg coupled at one end thereof to a support leg; said rack legs adapted to be coupled with at least one support cup for a supporting a barbell; said exercise rack being movable between an operating position wherein the two frames are spaced from each other and a storage position wherein said two frames are in closer proximity to each other; wherein said operating position has a width direction and a length direction and said storage position has a width direction and length direction; and said width direction and said length direction of said exercise rack in said storage position is substantially reduced compared to said width direction and length direction of said exercise rack in said operating position.
2. An exercise rack as claimed in claim 1 wherein said width direction and said length direction of said exercise rack in said storage position is reduced by at least 60 percent compared to said width direction and length direction of said exercise rack in said operating position.
3. An exercise rack as claimed in claim 2 wherein said width direction and said length direction of said exercise rack in said storage position is reduced by at least 90 percent compared to said width direction and length direction of said exercise rack in said operating position.
4. An exercise rack as claimed in claim 3 where said support legs of each of said two frames are coupled by a bracing member configured to allow for adjustable distance between said frames.
5. An exercise rack as claimed in claim 4 wherein said two frames are slidably coupled.
6. An exercise rack as claimed in claim 5 wherein said rack legs are pivotably coupled to said support legs.
5. An exercise rack as claimed in claim 6 wherein in said storage position, said rack legs and said support legs are generally parallel.
