Hang row pendulum apparatus and methods of using same

Abstract

A hang row pendulum apparatus, comprising: a crossbar; and, a main post, connected to the crossbar at a lower end of the main post and having a pivot point on the main post opposite the crossbar.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A hang row pendulum apparatus, comprising:
 a crossbar; and,   a main post, connected to the crossbar at a lower end of the main post and having a pivot point on the main post opposite the crossbar.   
     
     
         2 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising at least one weight stop on the crossbar. 
     
     
         3 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein the at least one weight stop is formed in a J-hook configuration. 
     
     
         4 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising a mounting bracket connected the crossbar to the main post. 
     
     
         5 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the main post has a plurality of post holes. 
     
     
         6 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the main post has a plurality of pivot holes. 
     
     
         7 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 4 , wherein the mounting bracket has a plurality of bracket holes. 
     
     
         8 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the main post is offered as a set of main posts configured in a plurality of sizes. 
     
     
         9 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising at least one aperture to attach resistance to the hang row pendulum apparatus. 
     
     
         10 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the pivot point defines an axis of rotation of the main post. 
     
     
         11 . The hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising at least one handle. 
     
     
         12 . A method of using a hang row pendulum apparatus, comprising:
 attaching a main post to a support of a weight rack at a pivot point;   grasping a crossbar attached to the main post;   pulling the crossbar from a starting position, causing the main post to rotate around the pivot point; and,   returning the crossbar to the starting position.   
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 12 , further comprising raising or lowering a level of the crossbar using a plurality of post holes disposed in the main post. 
     
     
         14 . The method according to  claim 12 , further comprising raising or lowering a level of the crossbar using a plurality of pivot holes disposed in the main post. 
     
     
         15 . The method according to  claim 12 , further comprising loading resistance on the hang row pendulum apparatus. 
     
     
         16 . An exercise system, comprising:
 a support; and,   a hang row pendulum apparatus according to  claim 1 , rotatably attached to the support at the pivot point.   
     
     
         17 . The exercise system according to  claim 16 , wherein the support is connected to a weight rack.
