ABSTRACT:
A barbell storage and exercise rack is particularly designed for squatting exercises, and includes a pair of cradles in which the barbell is laterally received and supported in a stored position. The cradles are vertically adjustable to a height which permits the user to easily remove and replace the barbell from a standing position. The barbell rack further includes a pair of safety side rails which are spaced apart a distance sufficient to permit the user to stand between the rails and perform squatting and other weight lifting exercises. The safety side rails are vertically adjustable to an elevation disposed slightly below the lowest position assumed by the barbell during the exercise, such as the squat position, so as to prevent the barbell from inadvertently falling on the user should the weight slip or overcome him.
