Abstract

A weight training apparatus, includes a central body comprising a width and a depth, wherein the width of the central body is greater than the depth. The weight training apparatus further includes a first handle comprising an opening coupled to the central body at a first position and a second position on a top surface of the central body, wherein the first handle is positioned laterally relative to the width of the central body, a second handle coupled to the central body at a third position on a first side surface of the central body, and a third handle coupled to the central body at a fourth position on a second side surface of the central body, wherein the second side surface is adjacent to the first side surface.

Claims (22)

1. A weight training apparatus, comprising:

a central body comprising a width and a depth, wherein the width of the central body is greater than the depth;

a first handle coupled to the central body at a first position and a second position on a top surface of the central body to form a first loop with a first opening, wherein the first handle is positioned laterally relative to the width of the central body;

a second handle coupled to the central body at a third position on a first side surface of the central body and coupled to a third side surface of the first handle to form a second loop with a second opening;

a third handle coupled to the central body at a fourth position on a second side surface of the central body and coupled to a fourth side surface of the first handle to form a third loop with a third opening, wherein the third side surface and the fourth side surface are on opposite sides of the first handle

one or more weighted plates to be secured to at least one of a front surface or a rear surface of the central body; and

one or more locking mechanisms to secure the one or more weighted plates to the at least one of the front surface or the rear surface of the central body.

2. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first handle, the second handle, and the third handle are centered relative to a center of mass of the central body.

3. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a first lower portion of the second handle forms a first angle between 20 degrees and 35 degrees relative to a bottom surface of the central body and a second lower portion of the third handle forms a second angle between 20 degrees and 35 degrees relative to the bottom surface of the central body.

4. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the at least one of the front surface or the rear surface comprises a recessed portion to envelop at least a portion of the one or more weighted plates.

5. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first handle, the second handle, and the third handle have corresponding diameters between 1.25 inches and 1.75 inches.

6. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first handle, the second handle, and the third handle have corresponding widths between 3 inches and 8 inches.

7. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a center of gravity of the weight training apparatus is below a center of a vertical height of the weight training apparatus.

8. The weight training apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the vertical height of the weight training apparatus is between 10 inches and 12 inches.

9. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the depth of the central body is between 3 inches and 4 inches.

10. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the width of the central body comprises a first width near the top surface of the central body and a second width near a bottom surface of the central body, wherein the first width is greater than the second width.

11. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein an inside width between the second handle and the third handle is between 12 inches and 32 inches.

12. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the central body, the first handle, the second handle, and the third handle are comprised of cast iron.

13. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the couplings between the central body, the first handle, the second handle, and the third handle are integrally formed.

14. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first loop, the second loop, and the third loop lie in a same plane.

15. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the central body provides a majority of the overall weight of the weight training apparatus.

16. The weight training apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a depth of the central body is greater than a diameter of the first handle, the second handle, and the third handle.
