ABSTRACT:
In a weight lifting machine having a manually engageable mechanism which is movable along a predetermined path of movement wherein the manually engageable mechanism is anchorable to a weight mechanism which resists movement of the manually engageable mechanism, an apparatus for positioning the manually engageable mechanism in a selected initial position along the path movement, the apparatus comprising, an elongated rod having a mesh mechanism on a surface of the rod and a sleeve having a mesh mechanism receivably interlockable with the mesh mechanism of the rod, one of the rod and the sleeve being connected to the manually engageable mechanism and movable in unison with movement of the manually engageable mechanism, the other of the rod and the sleeve being anchored to the weight mechanism, the mesh mechanisms of the rod and the sleeve being reversibly interlockable and unlockable such that the rod and the sleeve move in unison with each other when interlocked and such that the manually engageable mechanism is freely movable through its predetermined path of movement when the rod and the sleeve are unlocked from each other.
