ABSTRACT:
An exercise device for weightlifting or weight training for use with resistance type weightlifting exercises. The device is a V-shaped, solid, weighted exercise bar with two wings and an apex. The wings contain handle grips and are capable of having weight plates, discs and collars attached. The apex contains a projecting post that extends in an outward direction and holds weight, whereby the weight balances and counterbalances the weight on the wings. The total weight on the apex can be heavier, lighter or equal to the total weight on the wings. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the apex and wings are capable of accepting standard weight plates and discs using conventional weightlifting collars to hold the weights in place. In an alternative embodiment the apex and wings are permanently set with weights. Included are corresponding weight training methods for use with the exercise device.
