An exerciser comprises a first block, a second block, a first torque member, a second torque member, and a damper assembly. The first block has an axle pivotally coupling with the second block. The first torque member is arranged at a first position or a second position of the first block. The second torque member is arranged at a first position and a second position of the second block. The damper assembly couples with the first block and a second block. The forces exerted on the first torque member and the second torque member will increase or decrease the distance between the first torque member and the second torque member.

Apparatuses and methods for an oropharyngeal exercise device. The oropharyngeal exercise device has interchangeable parts comprising complete mouthpieces, complete springs, a housing, a progress gauge, and a stopper. The oropharyngeal exercise device and its interchangeable parts are organized and stored in a standardized kit. The kit allows a patient to take the exercise device on the go and makes home-health treatment of oropharyngeal disorders easier and more accessible. Patients can customize the exercise type and resistance. A variety of mouthpieces also allows patients to perform not only isometric exercises, but also perform dynamic exercises to increase flexibility and range of motion.

A trainer for improving an athletic swing includes an elastic band having an anchor end and a handle end, and configured to expand and contract. The trainer further includes a handle coupled to the handle end of the elastic band and configured to be gripped by a user. The trainer further includes a strap coupled to the anchor end of the elastic band and configured to be sandwiched between two objects to anchor the anchor end of the elastic band to at least one of the two objects.

A physical training apparatus includes a housing, a flywheel mechanism accommodated in the housing, the flywheel mechanism including a spindle, at least one flywheel mounted on the spindle and bearings to support the spindle in the housing, a windable pull element, such as a pull cord or band, which is arranged to be wound up the spindle and unwound from the spindle, and a handgrip attached to the pull element. The spindle includes a spindle end portion. The flywheel is exchangeably mounted on the spindle end portion against a stop located on the spindle. A fastening knob is releasably coupled to the spindle end portion and adapted to engage the flywheel and force it against the stop located on the spindle.

A collapsible and portable dip apparatus may be structurally configured for use with one or more resistance bands for adjusting the intensity of exercises. Specifically, a dip apparatus according to the present teachings may include side structures that are pivotable towards a central support structure to reduce a footprint of the dip apparatus, e.g., for storage. Further, the side structures may include support bars that are structurally configured for engagement with a resistance band, where the support bars are located below gripping bars of the dip apparatus. To this end, the present teachings include an exercise system featuring the aforementioned dip apparatus and resistance bands, where a user can engage a resistance band with each of the side structures of the dip apparatus such that a user can place his/her knees on the resistance band for support when performing a dip exercise.

An aquatic exercise device is disclosed, able to exert omnidirectional uniform water resistance while exercising, so that equal force is required to move it in any direction. The water resistance of the device according to the invention can be adjusted in a quick and measured way. This device can be operated with one hand and can be brought close to the body of exerciser.

A resistive training device to be worn by a user can include a first and second skate device configured to be worn on the user's feet. The first and second skate device can include a first plurality of attachment mechanisms. The first plurality of attachment mechanisms can include an interior attachment mechanism; an exterior attachment mechanism; and a rear attachment mechanism. The resistive training device can also include a belt configured to be worn around the user's waist. The belt can include comprising a second plurality of attachment mechanisms which can include a left hip attachment mechanism; a right hip attachment mechanism; and a tailbone attachment mechanism. The resistive training device can also include a plurality of resistive elements. Each resistive element can be removably connected to one of the first plurality of attachment mechanisms and one of the second plurality of attachment mechanisms.

Disclosed is a technical training garment configured for use with modular, interchangeable electronics and resistance modules. The garment provides resistance to movement throughout an angular range of motion and tracks biomechanical parameters such as stride length, stride rate, angular velocity and incremental power expended by the wearer. The garment may be low profile, and worn by a wearer as a primary garment or beneath or over conventional clothing. Alternatively, the device may be worn as a supplemental training tool during conventional training protocols.

Disclosed herein is an exercise system comprising a wall mount having tie down anchors and an exercise mat. The exercise mat comprises a plurality of radial lines to ensure the user maintains a known distance from the wall mount. A first end of a resistance band is coupled to a tie down anchor and a second end of the exercise mat is coupled to a handle.

A jump rope device includes a handle and a cable detachably connected to one another via a first and second connecting members. The handle includes a bearing assembly that is connected to the first connecting member via a connecting ring. A bearing post of the bearing assembly includes an enlarged portion that limits the range of motion of the bearing ring so as to prevent the first connecting member from making any contact with any portion of the handle other than the connecting ring.
