Barbell with integrated sensor

A barbell comprising:

• a first bar part and a second bar part each arranged for carrying one or more weights, the first bar part and the second bar part extending along a longitudinal axis,
• a central bar part arranged between the first and the second bar parts, the central bar part is connected to the first bar part and the second bar part, the central bar part extending along the longitudinal axis, wherein the barbell is a straight barbell with a common longitudinal axis,
• wherein at least one of the first bar part and the second bar part comprises a cavity,
• at least one sensor arranged for registration of movements of the barbell and for wireless communication with a data analyzing unit, wherein the at least one sensor is arranged in the cavity,
• wherein an enclosing side surface of the at least one sensor faces an interior sidewall of the cavity, and wherein the enclosing surface of the at least one sensor is arranged to engage with the interior sidewall of the cavity for retaining the at least one sensor in the cavity, wherein the at least one sensor is arranged for threaded engagement with the interior sidewall of the cavity by that the enclosing surface of the at least one sensor is arranged with a first thread and the interior sidewall of the cavity comprises a corresponding second thread arranged for cooperation with the first thread of the at least one sensor.

• at least one sensor arranged for registration of movements of the barbell and for wireless communication with a data analyzing unit, wherein the at least one sensor is arranged in the cavity,
• wherein the first bar part extends between a first end connected to the central bar part and a free second end, and the second bar part extends between a first end connected to the central bar part and free second end, and the cavity is arranged at the free second end of the first or second bar part,
• wherein at least one of the first bar part and the second bar part is a hollow tube, and the central bar part extends into the hollow tube a distance that is shorter than a length of the hollow tube thereby leaving a free space at the free second end of the hollow tube, the free space constituting the cavity for the at least one sensor, and
• wherein a short distance of the hollow tube is available at the free end of the bar part, and the short distance of the hollow tube is divided from a longer distance of the hollow tube by a divider, wherein the divider constitutes a bottom of the cavity, and when the at least one sensor is inserted into the cavity from the free end and a bottom of the at least one sensor is close to the divider, wherein the at least one sensor is retained in the cavity by a magnet and corresponding magnetic material, wherein either the bottom of the at least one sensor or the bottom of the cavity comprises the magnet and the one of the bottom of the at least one sensor or the bottom of the cavity that does not comprise the magnet comprises the magnetic material.
