Abstract: An adjustable carriage assembly is configured to be mounted on a frame member of a weight rack and includes a moveable carriage with a plurality of rollers that engage the frame member, as well as a connection structure for connection of an articulating implement. A releasable pin is mounted on the carriage proximate to a rear of the carriage and has an arm configured for engagement to move the releasable pin. The releasable pin is moveable by axial translation between a locked position and an unlocked position to selectively engage the frame member to lock the carriage in position or permit movement of the carriage. A removable pin may be removably received through a pin hole in the carriage to extend through the passage in a direction perpendicular to a direction of axial translation of the releasable pin, to engage the frame member to prevent movement of the carriage.

Abstract: A shell assembly configured for holding one or more weighted articles includes an outer shell having an outer surface and an inner surface defining a cavity configured for receiving the article(s) therein, with an opening providing access to the cavity, a closure configured for selectively opening and closing the opening, and a securing structure configured for securing the article(s) within the cavity to limit movement of the article(s). The securing structure includes a plurality of adjustable straps each connected to the inner surface of the outer shell at a first securing point and a second securing point on opposite sides of the opening. Each of the straps is adjustable with respect to the outer shell to increase or decrease an effective length of the respective strap between the respective securing points, to increase or decrease a distance between the respective securing points and thereby constrict or expand the outer shell.

Abstract: A weighted bag having an outer shell and a handle assembly. The outer shell has a plurality of panels and at least one of one of a pair of slots and a first end loop assembly and a second end loop assembly spaced apart from the first end loop assembly coupled to the plurality of panels. The handle assembly has a handle grasping member and a strapping assembly, the strapping assembly extending from the handle grasping member and interfacing with at least one of the pair of slots and the first and second end loop assemblies so as to couple the handle assembly to the outer shell.

Abstract: A barbell includes a central section having opposed ends, a mounting structure including first and second tubular members located at the ends of the central section and engaged with the first tubular member, and a second barbell section engaged with the second tubular member. The first barbell section includes a first bar portion having a first sleeve mounted thereon, and the first bar portion has a first proximal end received in the first central passage and connected to the first tubular member to connect the first barbell section to one end of the central section. The second barbell section includes a second bar portion having a second sleeve rotatably mounted thereon, and the second bar portion has a second proximal end received in the second central passage and connected to the second tubular member to connect the second barbell section to the other end of the central section.

Abstract: A weight rack assembly may include a plurality of vertical frame members and a plurality of lateral frame members extending between the plurality of vertical frame members. The weight rack assembly may also include a first lateral frame member that includes a gusseted end bracket at one end, where the gusseted end bracket includes a base plate, a lateral extension, a vertical extension, and a top gusset that extends along a side of the first lateral frame member and where the top gusset extends from an upper edge of the lateral extension. The weight rack assembly may further include a second lateral frame member that includes a bottom end plate at one end, where the bottom end plate includes a tab that extends from a lower surface of the bottom end plate and is received in a slot on a foot plate.

Abstract: A monolift assembly includes a carriage assembly configured to be releasably secured to a post of a rack for weightlifting equipment. A pivoting piece is pivotally connected to the carriage assembly and has a hook at a first end thereof and a counterweight at a second end thereof. The pivoting piece includes a central plate, a first exterior plate abutting a first side of the central plate and a second exterior plate abutting a second side of the central plate.

Abstract: A connector assembly includes a shaft and a first annular knob fixed to the shaft and a second annular knob releasably engaged with the shaft. Each of the first and second annular knobs includes a front face, a face, and a central passage that receives the shaft. The central passage has first, second, and third sections. The width of each first section is greater than the width of the third section, and the width of the second section is greater than the width of the first section. The second section defines an annular slot between the first and third sections.
