ABSTRACT:
A lifting bar assembly comprising an elongated cylindrical rod over an intermediate portion of which a tube telescopically fits. A plurality of weight discs, each having a central hole and at least one hole adjacent the disc periphery are provided in abutting relationship with the ends of the tube and supported on the rod which extends through the selected hole. By selecting the hole adjacent the periphery, the assembly is highly useful for lifting in a room having a low ceiling, as in homes, so as to prevent bumping of the weights against the ceiling. As a bench press for lifting from the floor, a pair of support brackets, each having a plurality of vertically spaced holes through which the rod is slid, are supported on the floor and located between the ends of the tubes and the selected number of weights which are rigidly fastened to such ends by set screws on collars.
