ABSTRACT:
A weight training device is provided wherein a weightlifter is afforded a full range of movement for each exercise without risk of injury. The device includes a beam having a first portion pivotally supported on a base and an opposite portion adapted to carry a plurality of barbell weights. The beam is moveable between a first position wherein the opposite portion of the beam assembly is supported on a first pair of weight support brackets and a second position, horizontally displaced from the first position, wherein the opposite portion of the beam assembly is supported on a second pair of brackets. A weightlifter adjusts the brackets to support the weights in fixed position relative to the base. If the weightlifter is unable to control the weight at any point during the exercise he may support the opposite portion of the beam on the brackets to avoid injury.
