Abstract
Disclosed herein is a barbell safety device. The device mounts in pairs over the spaced stop collars of a barbell. The device is generally 'T' shaped and is used in an inverted ‘T’ orientation. The device comprises a stop collar receiver configured to house a portion of a loadable sleeve of a barbell as well as the stop collar of the barbell. A central support assembly extends from the stop collar receiver to an elongate base support. The central support assembly in preferred forms is telescoping and can be fixed by pins or other means at a variety of lengths to accommodate to the needs of the user. When the barbell is lowered during exercise, the base support will engage the ground and prevent further lowering of the barbell thereby protecting the user from injury.
