ABSTRACT:
A multi-purpose exercise apparatus for safely performing weight lifting exercises (such as free weights) that eliminates the need for an assistant comprising a bench that is supported on the floor at both ends, one end of which is pivotally anchored to an elongated U-shaped weight supporting frame which encompasses and surrounds the supported bench. The U-shaped frame further includes a vertical support that is attached to a positionable weight lifting handle bar. Free weights are mounted on each side of the movable end of the U-shaped frame. Because of the length of the longitudinal side members of the U-shaped frame extending from one end of the exercise bench to the opposite end, the path of the handle bars is essentially linear. The apparatus provides for maximum efficiency and safety in bench pressing, squatting and other free weight exercises.
