A grip assembly has a core having a longitudinal axis and anchor interfaces on opposite ends, an exercise band with elastic properties, one end furled around the core, and the other, loose end extending away from the core, and a keeper strap having attachment interfaces at opposite ends compatible with the anchor interfaces of the core, the attachment interfaces engaged to the ancho interfaces of the core, the keeper strap spanning the length of the core, intimately contacting the furled exercise band. The keeper strap constrains the furled exercise band from unfurling.

Devices such as medical devices, including those for use in conducting pelvic muscle exercise, are generally provided. Embodiments herein relate generally to the medical device and consumer medical product fields, and in some embodiments, to a device for sensing, guiding, and/or tracking pelvic muscle exercise in men and women for the purpose of treating urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, and other pelvic conditions.

An apparatus including an elongated foam piece first and second ends; and a suction cup attached to the elongated foam piece at the first end. The elongated foam piece may be a cylindrical foam piece. The suction cup is typically removably attached to the elongated foam piece. The apparatus may further include a plate to which the suction cup is removably attached. The plate typically has an outer diameter larger than an outer diameter of the suction cup. The apparatus may include a weight attached to the plate, underneath the plate, opposite from where the suction cup is removably attached to the plate. A plurality of such apparatuses, spaced apart from each other, may be attached to a surface by suction; and a plurality of exercises using each of the plurality of apparatuses may be performed, such as by contacting or weaving in and out of the apparatuses.

An exercise device includes a resilient compression member configured to be placed between inner thighs of a user and resist a compressive force from the user, and a resilient tension member comprising a grip component configured to hold the resilient tension member in place on outer thighs of the user. The resilient tension member is configured to couple to opposing sides of the compression member, form a first portion of a loop around the compression member and the outer thighs of the user, and resist a tensile force from the user. The exercise device further includes an extension member configured to connect with opposing ends of the tension member to form a second portion of the loop.

The disclosure provided herein is directed to a torque pull-up bar having a torque assembly positioned over a pull-up bar that is configured to selectively limit the rotation of a pull-up bar between a static position and freewheeling. In a strong resistance configuration and a weak configuration, the pull-up bar is capable of a limited rotation due to a resistance member that is biased to return to a natural state. Through selective engagement of the resistance member with the pull-up bar, the degree of rotation is modified.

A fitness ball includes a ball portion having a generally spherical-shaped resilient shell, a pocket disposed in the ball portion and defining an opening in the ball portion, and a handle extending from a first point on an inner surface of the pocket to a second point on the inner surface of the pocket. In some embodiments, the fitness ball further includes an impact-absorbent filler material disposed in an inner cavity defined by the resilient shell and the pocket. In other embodiments, the fitness ball includes one or more gel inserts embedded in the pocket to cushion impact of a user's hand with the pocket. In other embodiments, the pocket is adhered to the resilient shell by an adhesive disposed between an interfacing portion of the resilient shell and a corresponding lip of the pocket which overlaps the interfacing portion of the resilient shell.

The mouthpiece includes an enhanced mouthpiece, a data sensor, and a personal data device. The data sensor collects data regarding the bite force, the number of bites and the duration of each bite. The data sensor wirelessly transfers the collected data to a personal data device.

A variable resistance exercise device is provided that comprises a pair of arm bands and a handle tube that has a longitudinal interior bore. The tube has first and second ends and includes a solid metal center shaft fitted through the interior bore thereby exposing respective first and second end portions of the shaft at the respective first and second ends of the tube. The first and second band arm of the pair of bands arms are respectively fitted onto the first and second ends of the shaft. In some instances, the device is part of a kit that includes a base having a bottom face, where the bottom face includes a groove, and one or more elastic bands, each such band configured to removably couple the base to the exercise bar by fitting the into the groove of the base and through the first and second arm bands.
