A barbell includes a bar and a sleeve assembly having a sleeve with an axial bore having a proximal bore portion, a distal bore portion, and a central bore portion extending therebetween, with an inner bore surface defining the axial bore and having a threaded section. An inner is member is received within the axial bore and has a threaded outer surface threadably engaged with the threaded section of the inner bore surface to retain the inner member in connection with the sleeve. The inner member has an opening extending inward from the threaded outer surface, and a locking member formed of a resilient polymer material is received in the opening. The locking member has an outer locking surface exposed on the threaded outer surface and engaged with the threaded section of the inner bore surface to resist rotational slippage between the inner member and the inner bore surface.

The present invention provides for a military-style frame-supported backpack with two separately accessible compartments, the frame compartment may hold a structural frame and the cargo compartment may store items such as weights, equipment, food/drinks, or other articles. A frame can be secured inside the frame compartment, and may contain padding for added comfort. The frame compartment and the cargo compartments are separated by a reclosable inner panel, such that the cargo compartment is externally accessible while the frame compartment remains closed. The backpack assembly contains shoulder straps that loop through holes in the pack and connect directly to the frame.

A support member for use with a weight rack includes two side plates, each including a base portion and a leg extending outward and forward therefrom, the base portion having a front surface, and the leg having a top surface, where the side plates are positioned parallel to and spaced from each other, and a cover. The cover includes a base having opposed side surfaces, lips extending outward from the base around at least a portion of a periphery of each side surface, such that each side surface is recessed from the respective lip, and a support surface extending between the lips for supporting an object. The cover is nested with the side plates such that the base is received between the side plates, and the side plates are positioned adjacent to the side surfaces. The lips cover the top and front surfaces of the side plates.

A weighted bag having an outer shell and a handle assembly. The outer shell has a plurality of panels and at least one of one of a pair of slots and a first end loop assembly and a second end loop assembly spaced apart from the first end loop assembly coupled to the plurality of panels. The handle assembly has a handle grasping member and a strapping assembly, the strapping assembly extending from the handle grasping member and interfacing with at least one of the pair of slots and the first and second end loop assemblies so as to couple the handle assembly to the outer shell.
