Abstract
An exercise assembly for assisting a user in performing squats and other exercise maneuvers is presented herein. The exercise assembly includes a substantially planar base platform, at least one riser bracket fixed to a top surface of the base platform, and a plurality of risers each selectively and removably disposable in a vertically stacked orientation within a channel of the at least one riser bracket to define a height-adjustable support block. Selective removal of one or more of the risers from the vertically stacked orientation within the channel will serve to lower the height-adjustable support block for the performance of more challenging squat exercises.
Claims17
An exercise assembly, comprising:
- a base platform defining a top surface,
- at least one riser bracket fixed to said top surface of said base platform,
- a plurality of elongated risers individually selectively disposable within, and removable from, said at least one riser bracket to define a height-adjustable support block,
- said height-adjustable support block being disposed on top of said top surface of said base platform, and
- wherein, through the selective disposition of at least one of said plurality of elongated risers within said at least one riser bracket, said height-adjustable support block comprises a height that extends a selected distance above said top surface of said base platform.
An exercise assembly, comprising:
- a base platform defining a top surface,
- two opposing riser brackets fixed to said top surface of said base platform, said two opposing riser brackets each comprising open facing ends and open top faces, said riser brackets defining a riser channel extending between said two opposing riser brackets, through said open facing ends of said two opposing riser brackets, and along and on top of said top surface of said base platform,
- two opposing storage brackets fixed to said top surface of said base platform, said two opposing storage brackets each comprising open facing ends and open top faces, said two opposing storage bracket defining a storage channel extending between said two opposing storage brackets, through said open facing ends of said two opposing storage brackets, and along and on top of said top surface of said base platform, and
- a plurality of risers each selectively and removably disposable between a stored position and an operative position, wherein said stored position is defined as said corresponding riser being selectively and removably disposed within said storage channel of said two opposing storage brackets, and wherein said operative position is defined as said corresponding riser being selectively and removably disposed within said riser channel of said two opposing riser brackets,
- wherein a height-adjustable support block is defined by at least one of said plurality of risers disposed in said operative position.
