Abstract:
A portable telescopic weighted walking pole that includes a pole portion that is collapsible, telescopic, and tubular, maintaining apparatus, a weighted handle that is removably mounted and interchangeable, and handle mounting apparatus. The pole portion has a variety of lengths, so that the pole portion is length adjustable to accommodate users of different heights and can be collapsed to a small length for easy storage and transport. The maintaining apparatus maintains the pole portion at a desired length. The weighted handle is removably mounted to the pole portion, so that increased resistance is exerted on the arms of a user as the user walks and accomplishes dual-action exercising. The handle mounting apparatus removably mounts the weighted handle to the pole portion, so that the weighted handle can be interchanged with another weighted handle when desired by the user and can be removed for easy storage and transport.
