BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Exercising with weights may require a user to position said weights in hard to position areas. Sometimes grasping a standard dumbbell with two hands in front of the chest or behind the head can be difficult, as the diameter of the dumbbell may bump into the user's body.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
A Dumbbell of the invention is a dumbbell that has cylindrical detachable weights. Each detachable weight can have additional cylindrical weights placed on top on them. A design like this allows a user to maneuver the dumbbell with a lower risk of the dumbbell bumping into the user's body.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE INVENTION
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a Dumbbell of the invention
FIG. 2 is a frontal view of a Dumbbell of the invention with one set of cylindrical detachable weights.
FIG. 3 is a frontal view of a Dumbbell of the invention with four sets of cylindrical detachable weights.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A Dumbbell of the invention may contain a pole-like structure 2, as seen in FIG. 1. The pole-like structure 2 may or may not have an ergonomic hand grip 1 for a user's comfort. Each end of the pole-like structure 2 can hold and secure first level cylindrical detachable weights 6. After first level cylindrical detachable weights 6 have been attached to the pole-like structure 2, additional weights can be attached and secured over the previously attached weights. First level cylindrical detachable weights 6 can have second level cylindrical detachable weights 5 placed on top of them. Second level cylindrical detachable 5 weights can have third level cylindrical detachable weights 4 placed on them. Third level cylindrical detachable 4 weights can have fourth level cylindrical detachable weights 3 placed on them and additional weights can be added on to a user's content.
Claims
