Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to equipment for use in performing physical training exercises.
- barbells or dumbbells
- dumbbells of the type consisting of annular metal plates fitted on a metal bar and secured in place by collars having set screws for engaging the bar. It is not uncommon for the collars to become loose, in which case, the plates can slip from the bar unless the bar is maintained in a horizontal position. As this could result in severe physical injury, weights of this type are typically only used in exercises wherein the bar can be maintained in a horizontal position, which is relatively limiting.
- exercise equipment including barbells dumbbells, cables etc.
- Such items are not usually designed specifically to deal with 3-D (multiplanar) movement.
- dumbbells and barbells also pose problems for fitness centers, since persons using same are prone to allowing same to come to rest on the floor in a less than gentle manner. This is typically resolved through the use of cushioned floor surfaces in areas of gymnasiums and fitness centers reserved for dumbbell and barbell exercising. Notwithstanding the aforementioned limited usefulness of barbells and dumbbells of this type, and the practical need for specialized floor coverings, barbells and dumbbells are ubiquitous in the exercise industry, as they are highly durable and relatively inexpensive to manufacture.
