A retractable wall mounted exercise rack system for providing an exercise rack that may be easily and compactly stored when not in use. The retractable wall mounted exercise rack system generally includes one or more brackets attached to a wall, a pair of support members, and a plurality of arms pivotally extending from the brackets and pivotally connecting to the support members. One or more actuators are connected between the brackets and the arms to assist in lifting the structure into a compact retracted position for storage.

A treadmill includes a frame, a driving member and a running belt. The frame includes a base, a front rotating shaft and a rear rotating shaft. The driving member has a motor and a transmission member drivable by the motor. The motor is installed between the front rotating shaft and the rear rotating shaft and is located adjacent to the front rotating shaft. The transmission member is adapted for driving the front rotating shaft to rotate. The running belt winds around the front rotating shaft and the rear rotating shaft, and is drivable by the motor to rotate relative to the base. By installing the motor between the front rotating shaft and the rear rotating shaft, an overall length and size of the treadmill is reduced for minimizing storage space.

A therapy desk and desk tops provide various therapies to the users while standing up or sitting down. It is configured to provide therapeutic benefits by two knobs that are rotated by hand to elevate and lower the desktop or the desk, providing excellent therapy to fingers, wrists, hands, back and legs. As it is operated while sitting down it avoids strain to the back. Also the peddling device used while sitting down provides excellent therapy to the legs.

An exercise apparatus providing a User multiple different exercises, including both resistance movements and isometrics. The User interacts with the apparatus by grasping a bar. A resistance mechanism is symmetrically mounted on a second bar and provides infinitely variable resistance to the User, as well as soundproof operation. A vertical column allows infinite positioning of the bars for different exercises, and a bench provides support. The User can change the exercise resistance by verbal commands, or the apparatus can sense the torque applied by the user to the apparatus and vary the exercise resistance in response to the force applied by the User or the speed at which the user is moving the bar. The apparatus can be battery powered and operated at locations where electric service is unavailable, or in zero gravity. To verify accuracy, the resistance can be calibrated against a known quantity of weight.

A jumper apparatus may include a ring, a set of poles along the ring and a pneumatic tube. Each pole of the set of poles may have a first axial end portion inwardly extending towards a centerline of the ring, a second axial end portion outwardly extending away from the centerline of the ring and a vertical portion connecting the first axial end portion and the second axial end portion. The ring is vertically located between the first axial end portion and the second axial end portion of each pole. The pneumatic tube may extend about the set of poles over the second axial end portion of each pole.

A therapy desk and desk tops provide various therapies to the users while standing up or sitting down. It is configured to provide therapeutic benefits by two knobs that are rotated by hand to elevate and lower the desktop or the desk, providing excellent therapy to fingers, wrists, hands, back and legs. As it is operated while sitting down it avoids strain to the back. Also the peddling device used while sitting down provides excellent therapy to the legs.

An exercise device comprises adjustable apparatus for engaging the feet of a user, including sole-support members positioned for receiving the soles of a user's feet, an adjustable heel engaging member that is positioned to be adjusted relative to the sole-support members, and a pivotally adjustable member positioned to engage the top of a user's feet, and further including one or more members for adding weights to the device.

A fitness-equipment storage bench (10) for use in aiding or supplementing a physical activity in a physical-activity environment whilst enabling storage of fitness equipment, the fitness-equipment storage bench (10) comprising a cuboidal or substantially cuboidal body (12) having first and second ends (14, 16), two opposing sides (18,20) between the first and second ends (14, 16), a top (22) and a bottom (24); at least one recess (26) formed in one of the said sides (18, 20); at least one cantilevered bar support (52) in the recess (26) for supporting a dumbbell (50) such that a grip axis of the dumbbell (50) is received entirely within the recess (26); at least one rotatable element (130) at or adjacent to the first end (14) or the second end (16) to facilitate reorientation of the bench (10); a pivotable user back support (30) on the top of the cuboidal body (12); and a stay (32) associated with the back support (30) to hold the back support (30) in at least one raised condition.

A multi-use weight lifting bar is adaptable to both free weight and machine weight lifting types. The multi-use weight lifting bar has left and right lobes with grip handles oriented to perform an exercise. A weight post is carried at the ends of the lifting bar for carriage of a weight plate. A coupling at the center of the bar is rotationally disposed about the bar. The coupling may be attached to an attachment point for a machine weight lifting apparatus. The coupling may also include a sleeve that is connectable to a weight lifting bar or other weight lifting apparatus.

An exercise machine for performing dip exercises, having: a stationary main frame; first and second mounting brackets connected to the stationary main frame; first and second dip handle assemblies connected to the mounting brackets, each dip handle assembly having a first exercise arm, a first stop plate, and a first arm mount hub, wherein the first and second dip handle assemblies are each configured to be converted between an exercise position and a storage position while connected to the exercise machine.
