Anchored HydroResistance Speed Training is a running speed training apparatus and training method which is used/done underwater. The apparatus is used to firmly stabilize a floating person's hips while they carryout sprinting mechanics in a maximal rate of force development manner against the resistant environment of the water they are submerged in. The rationale is to enable water-resisted maximal rate of force production training using sprinting mechanics, where this otherwise is not feasible due to the lack of anchoring to a sturdy surface. The apparatus provides the necessary anchoring of a person to an affixed object and stabilizes the waist, iliac crest, anterior iliac spine, and thoracolumbar regions, without restricting limbs, thereby allowing the primary ranges of motion involved in sprinting. The base of the apparatus is firmly affixed to the floor of pools by way of a suction cup base or by being permanently installed into a pool floor.

An aqua resistance fin assembly comprises two fin components and at least one fastening member for fitting the fin components to a user's limb in a side-by-side configuration around the limb. Each fin component comprises a base adapted to fit against a user's limb and adapted to be secured to the user's limb by the fastening member, and at least two longitudinal fins and at least one lateral fin on an outer side of the base.

The invention relates to a gymnastics and therapy multifunctional installation by realizing rocking movements of the human body, wherein the installation comprises, configuration of liquid-containing spaces (1) by placing adjustable walls (2) with integrated support bars (3), a frame support base (4) in which a variable support frame is mounted, movable holders (52) mounted on the support frame and on the support bars (3) for mounting support components of the human body and cables (9), wherein on cables (9) a substrate base (10) is connected for the assembly of a substrate consisting various parts, where hand (16) and feet (15) parts of the substrate are used separately for exercises. A multifunctional device realizes the rocking movements by generating wave and currents through alternative components assembled into a chamber (24), transmitting movement in various system components and moving through arms (34) the frame support base (4) and support bars (3).

The invention relates to an adjustable seat device (10) that includes: a linear support (38); at least one upper bearing means of the linear support configured to bear on a horizontal surface at the edge of a swimming pool and at least one lower bearing means of the linear support configured to bear on an inner wall of the swimming pool; a seat (28); an upper seat rod (36), having one end provided with a first seat slide (29) configured to slide along the linear support and a locking means (30) for locking the first slide in position on the linear support; a lower seat rod (37), having one end provided with a second seat slide (31) configured to slide along the linear support and a locking means (32) for locking the second slide in position on the linear support,
the two seat rods jointly supporting the seat and being connected to one another by a swivel link (35).

The seat slides slide independently along the linear support, the joint sliding of the seat slides adjusting the height of the seat and the respective sliding of the seat slides adjusting at least the separation between the seat and the linear support.

A resistance system for a rowing machine has a mounting bracket, a housing assembly, a paddle wheel, a driving assembly and a restoring assembly. The housing assembly is mounted on the mounting bracket and includes a liquid tank for storing liquid. The driving assembly is connected to the paddle wheel and drives the paddle wheel to rotate in a direction only. The restoring assembly is connected to a strip hub of the driving assembly and is able to drive the strip hub to rotate in a reverse direction. The resistance system for the rowing machine has simplified structure. Therefore, it is easy to assemble to the resistance system, and manufacturing cost of the resistance system can be decreased. In addition, a service life of the resistance system as well as the rowing machine can be increased.

An aquatic exercise apparatus for applying a resistive force to an exercising swimmer, the apparatus includes a bracket mounted to a vertically oriented surface located above a pool of water, a container, an operational assembly comprising at least one upper pulley attached to the bracket and at least one lower pulley attached to the container, a cord passing through the at least one upper pulley and the at least one lower pulley, and a fastener configured to attach to an animal, where the fastener is attached to a free end of the cord, and where pulling the free end of the cord moves the container upward against gravity.

A squat exercising machine (1) includes a base mount (10), a swivel rack (20) and a resistance device (30) connected with the swivel rack (20). The swivel rack (20) has a first end (22), a second end (24) opposite to the first end (24), a shoulder abutment portion (28) adjacent to the second end (24), and a pivot portion (25) adjacent to the first end (22) and pivotally connected with the base mount (10) by a pivot (26) in a way that the swivel rack (20) is upwardly swingable about the pivot (26) from a received position (P2) to an exercising position (P1). An included angle between an imaginary line that passes through the first and second ends (22, 24) and an imaginary plumb line (L) is equal to or less than 30 degrees when the swivel rack (20) is positioned at the received position (P2) and viewed from an end of the pivot (26). As such, the squat exercising machine (1) can be set in a received state for easy storage, thereby increasing space using efficiency.

An improved fitness/exercise apparatus using a full or half tire that rotates 360 degrees about a fixed axle. A user lifts/pushes the tire, thus rotating the tire end over end, while the apparatus creates resistance to the rotation via a variety of means, such as a magnetic brake, a viscous brake, a pad and disk brake, or a motor-controlled brake system.

A rowing machine convertible for use both indoors and outdoors. In the outdoor mode, the rowing machine is configured for adaptation to a watercraft, such as a kayak or stand up paddle board (SUP). A rower operating the rowing machine pulls on a rope or cord to cause paddles positioned at the rearward end of the machine to rotate and move the machine on a body of water. In the indoor mode, legs are attached to the machine for placement on a rigid surface. The paddles are placed in a container holding fluid.

An apparatus 200 having a frame 202 forming a base 204 upon which extend first, second and third frame supports 206, 208, 210 for the seat unit 212, resistance unit 214 and crank unit 216, and guide unit 218 respectively
