Convertible Weight Training System

Abstract

A convertible weight system includes a weight having a first and a second side. The first side has a threaded extension extending outwardly. The system includes a threaded chamber adapted to receive a second threaded extension. The threaded chamber is located on the second side of the weight. The system includes at least one spring adapted to extend from a first location on the weight. The system includes a spring socket adapted to receive a second spring. The spring socket is located at a second location. A connecting mechanism that includes a threaded extension extending outwardly from a first surface. The connecting mechanism includes a threaded chamber adapted to receive a second threaded extension for application in a kettlebell, barbell or dumbbell configuration.

What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A system comprising a weight having a first side and second side, the weight comprising:
 a threaded extension extending outwardly from the first side of the weight;   a threaded chamber adapted to receive a second threaded extension, the threaded chamber located on the second side of the weight;   at least one spring adapted to extend from a first location on the weight; and   a spring socket at a second location, the spring socket adapted to receive a second spring.   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the weight has a hexagonal perimeter. 
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring is encased in a silo. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the silo further comprises a spring cap. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring is a plurality of springs and each of the plurality of springs is equidistant from the threaded extension. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein a height of the threaded extension is greater than a height of the at least one spring when the at least one spring is in a relaxed position. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the first location on the weight is on the first side of the weight; and the second location on the weight is on the second side of the weight. 
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the first location is on the second side of the weight and the second location is on the first side of the weight. 
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 1 , further comprising a handle having a second threaded chamber on a first end of the handle, the handle adapted to engage with the threaded chamber; and
 disengage from the weight in response to an application of a force having a rotational and a longitudinal component.   
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein the handle forms a kettlebell handle. 
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein the handle is linear and forms one of a dumbbell, barbell and Indian club handle. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 9 , further comprising an extension piece having a first end and a second end, the first end comprising a third threaded extension adapted to connect to the first end of the handle. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 9 , further comprising an end cap, having a third threaded extension adapted to connect to the first end of handle. 
     
     
         14 . A connecting mechanism for a weight comprising:
 a threaded extension extending outwardly from a first surface;   a threaded chamber adapted to receive a second threaded extension, the threaded chamber located on a second surface;   at least one spring adapted to extend from a first location; and   a spring socket at a second location, the spring socket adapted to receive a second spring.   
     
     
         15 . The connecting mechanism of  claim 14 , wherein the at least one spring is encased in a silo. 
     
     
         16 . The connecting mechanism of  claim 15 , wherein the silo further comprises a spring cap. 
     
     
         17 . The connecting mechanism of  claim 14 , wherein the at least one spring is a plurality of springs. 
     
     
         18 . The connecting mechanism of  claim 14 , wherein a height of the threaded extension is greater than a height of the at least one spring when the spring is in a relaxed position. 
     
     
         19 . The connecting mechanism of  claim 14 , wherein the first location is on the first surface of the weight and the second location is on the second surface of the weight. 
     
     
         20 . The connecting mechanism of  claim 14 , wherein the first location is on the second surface of the weight and the second location is on the first surface weight.
