Push-up stand and dumbbell-supporting bracket

摘要

The push-up stand and dumbbell-supporting bracket is composed of an inverted “V”-shaped bracket that can support dumbbells on opposing side locations, and in which a handle is provided above and central to said bracket. Dumbbells of equal or differing weights may be supported on said bracket and lifted via said handle in order to conduct different arm-strengthening exercises. The dumbbell-supporting bracket may be further used as a push-up stand regardless of whether dumbbells are supported at said locations. The dumbbell-supporting bracket enables varying weighted or like weighted dumbbells to be supported in order to produce a varying overall weight without requiring multiple dumbbell sets of varying weights.

主权项

1. A push-up stand and dumbbell-supporting bracket comprising:
two “V”-shaped brackets separated by a depth and in which dumbbells of equal or varying weights are supported thereon and used in connection therewith as a push-up stand or in connection with arm-strengthening exercises traditionally associated with dumbbells; wherein a handle and non-skid pads attach in between and support the “V”-shaped brackets; wherein the “V”-shaped brackets each include “U”-shaped members on opposing ends, wherein the “U”-shaped members of both “V”-shaped brackets align to form side locations in which the dumbbells are supported; wherein the handle is located at a top-most portion of the “V”-shaped members; whereas the “U”-shaped members are located at a lower elevation when compared with the handle; wherein the handle is covered in a gripping material; wherein the non-skid pads include a rubber pad along a bottom surface, which creates traction when placed on a ground surface; wherein the “V”-shaped members include cross-braces that attach in between the “V”-shaped member and preserve a span formed between the two opposing “U”-shaped members of the same “V”-shaped member; wherein the “U” shaped members shall have an opening defined by a width through which a handle portion of said dumbbell is inserted; wherein the width shall be greater than a width of said handle portion of the dumbbell; wherein the depth is less than a handle length of the dumbbell.
