Abstract:
A method of selectively adjusting weight to be moved in connection with exercise activity, comprising the steps of:providing a base; providing weights; positioning the weights on the base; and providing a weight selector assembly for movement to and from a rest position relative to the base, and operable to select a desired number of the weights only when occupying the rest position, wherein the weight selector assembly is provided with a button that is accessible via an opening, and with a weight selector member that is operatively connected to the button, and the base is provided with a member that engages the button when the weight selector assembly occupies the rest position, and gravitational force acting upon the weight selector assembly is sufficient to overcome a downward bias force acting upon the button, thereby moving the button upward relative to the weight selector assembly and freeing the weight selector member for movement to select the desired number of weights.
