they require little to no equipment yet can yield excellent
results. As bodyweight exercises require little to no equipment
they provide an excellent workout platform for individuals without
a gym membership, who are on vacation, etc. One of the most popular
bodyweight exercise is the push-up. As such, a variety of push-up
bars have been developed to enhance this particular exercise. These
push-up bars generally provide a padded surface with one or more
hand positions along a central axis. The main focus of these
push-up bars follows the traditional push-up exercise while adding
variations in the distance between the placement of an individual's
hands. While these push-up bars provide an adequate workout
platform, they lack in the variety of styles of exercises that can
be performed. As users are limited to standard push-ups,
traditional push-up bars are not conducive to high intensity
workouts.
[0003] Therefore it is the object of the present invention to
provide a versatile workout apparatus and accompanying bodyweight
workout regimens. A diamond cutter push-up bar is provided that
allows multiple push-up variants to be performed by a user. The
diamond cutter push-up bar includes a push-up frame, formed into a
diamond shape, that is connected to a support structure, wherein
the support structure elevates the push-up frame from a resting
surface. The unique shape of the push-up frame provides the ability
