ABSTRACT:
A body exercising apparatus, in the form of a weight lifting apparatus, which includes an elongate lever arm having first and second opposite ends. The first end of the lever arm is capable of being pivotally mounted to a supporting structure, and preferably a relatively vertically disposed wall. For this purpose, a mounting element is provided on the first end of the lever arm for pivotally mounting this lever arm to such relatively permanent structure and preferably such vertically disposed wall. A weight retaining rod, is operatively mounted on the lever arm and is capable of receiving conventional bar-bell type weights in selected amounts. A leg member is secured to the lever arm and extends downwardly therefrom so as to be engageable with a floor or similar horizontal surface to thereby control the lower most limit of movement of the lever arm. A handle member is located at the second end of the lever arm for engagement by the hands of a user of the apparatus so that this user can attempt to lift the lever arm about the pivotal connection with respect to the supporting structure against one or more weights placed on the weight retaining rod. In a more preferred aspect, the handle member is adjustably positionable with respect to the lever arm so as to accommodate the overall height of the user.
