A retractable exercise rack system for efficiently securing an exercise rack against or near a wall when the exercise rack is not in use. The retractable exercise rack system may thus be adjustable between a retracted position against or near the wall, and an extended position which is distally-positioned with respect to the wall. The retractable exercise rack system generally includes a first support member a second support member, with an exercise bar connected between the support members. Wall mounts may be secured to the wall, with the first and second support members being adjustably connected to the wall mounts by linkages, scissor connectors, or arms. Latches and strikers may be utilized to releasably lock the support members in the extended and/or retracted positions. One or both of the support members may include a button for releasing the latches from the strikers.

An adjustable barbell system may include a base, two or more weights, a handle assembly, an additional weight, and selection assembly. The two or more weights may be supported by the base and grouped into a first set of weights associated with one end of the barbell system and a second set of weights associated with an opposing end of the barbell system. The handle assembly may be selectively fixedly joined to the first and second set of weights. The additional weight may be disposed distally of the handle assembly. The selection assembly may be secured to the additional weight. The selection assembly may include a selection member that may be linearly moveable between a selected position where the additional weight is operatively secured to the handle assembly and an unselected position where the additional weight is disengaged from the handle assembly.
