Abstract: A removable crossbar assembly and an exercise ladder arrangement including the removable crossbar assembly. The crossbar assembly is configured to be secured to an exercise ladder to provide an exercise crossbar disposed between two fixed exercise crossbars on the exercise ladder. The crossbar assembly may also include a brace for securing an independent exercise device to the crossbar assembly. The crossbar assembly advantageously provides the placement of a crossbar for exercising closer to the desired height of a participant, e.g., closer to the should height of a participant, to increase the efficacy of the exercise.
