- The present invention relates generally to weightlifting, exercise, and fitness bars and their methods of use. More specifically, the present invention relates to weightlifting, exercise, and fitness bars which are portable and collapsible and their methods of use.
- Without limiting the scope of the disclosed device and method, the background is described in connection with a device and method of use directed to a versatile fitness bar.
- The field's prior art reflects many approaches and devices in providing a fitness bar. However, the conventional approaches employed have several drawbacks. As a first example, commonly used fitness bars are one piece. This makes it difficult to transport or even to be put away for storage. In addition, weights attached to these bars serve one purpose for the fitness bar itself only. Those weights not being used or attached to the bar will just occupy space.
- In view of the foregoing, it is apparent that there exists a need in the art for a fitness bar, which overcomes, mitigates, or solves the above problems in the art. It is the purpose of this invention to fulfill this and other needs in the art, which will become apparent to the skilled artisan once given the following disclosure.
- The present invention, therefore, provides for a device and method of use for a versatile fitness bar.
- The bar generally is comprised of a main first part member and a main second part member. In other embodiments, the versatile fitness bar is also comprised of releasably attachable weight members. The weight members are elements that are used to add weight to the bar and may be of various weight, sizes, and shapes. In embodiments, the distal ends of the main first part member and the main second part member are configured to receive and releasably attach weight members. In embodiments, this is achieved by having male threaded portions on the distal ends of the main first and second part members and having female threaded portions on the weights members. In yet other embodiments, the main first part member and the main second part member are configured at the proximal ends to releasably attach and lock both main first and second part members together. This allows the versatile fitness bar to be assembled for use and disassembled for ease of storage and transport. The main first part member in embodiments is also comprised of a collar body portion. The collar body portion functions to overlay, support, protect, and cover the proximal ends portion of the main first and second part members where the attaching and locking occurs. In embodiments, the weight members are configured to also function as dumbbells.
- In summary, the present invention relates generally to weightlifting, exercise, and fitness bars and their methods of use. More specifically, the present invention relates to weightlifting, exercise, and fitness bars which are portable and collapsible and their methods of use. In addition, their methods of use are also described and claimed.
- The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form a part of the specification, illustrate a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention.
