ABSTRACT:
A two-piece weightlifting bar offering safety to the weightlifter, this two-piece weightlifting bar comprising a pair of curved bars having first ends disposed in an adjacent, rotatable relationship. The curved bars have respective second ends remotely located with respect to the first ends, with such second ends being configured to receive weights of selected size. A common support member is provided for the first ends, with the common support member including an arrangement for anchoring the first ends against separation, but permitting ready rotation of the curved bars. Handgrips are located in the near vicinity of the second ends of the bars, so as to enable the user to grasp and then lift the second ends of the bars. The lifting of the second ends of the bars brings about the lifting of the weights as well as causing rotation of the first ends in the support member. The height of the common support member can be readily altered, so as to change the arc of movement of the handgrips, thus enabling the weightlifter to put emphasis on selected muscle groups of his torso.
