1. A folding exercise rack system, comprising:
a first inner support member;
a first upper linkage connected to the first inner support member;
a first upper hinge adapted to be connected to a wall, wherein the first upper linkage is pivotably and slidably connected to the first upper hinge;
a second inner support member;
a second upper linkage connected to the second inner support member;
a second upper hinge adapted to be connected to the wall, wherein the second upper linkage is pivotably and slidably connected to the second upper hinge;
a first upper arm connected to the first inner support member;
a first lower arm connected to the first inner support member below the first upper arm;
a first outer support member connected to the first upper arm and the first lower arm;
a second upper arm connected to the second inner support member;
a second lower arm connected to the second inner support member below the second upper arm; and
a second outer support member connected to the second upper arm and the second lower arm;
wherein the first outer support member is adjustable between a first extended position in which the first outer support member is distally positioned away from the wall and a first folded position in which the first outer support member is positioned adjacent to the wall by pivotably moving the first upper linkage relative to the first upper hinge;
wherein the second outer support member is adjustable between a second extended position in which the second outer support member is distally positioned away from the wall and a second folded position in which the second outer support member is positioned adjacent to the wall by pivotably moving the second upper linkage relative to the second upper hinge;
wherein the first outer support member is closer to a first pivot point of the first upper hinge when in the first folded position than when in the first extended position, and wherein the second outer support member is closer to a second pivot point of the second upper hinge when in the second folded position than when in the second extended position.
