A physical therapy assistance device includes a base having a non-slip portion, a spring extending between a first end and a second end and having a first height in a fully expanded condition and a partially compressed condition, the spring being coupled to the base at the first end, and a cone extending between a first end having a first diameter, and a second end having a second diameter, the cone having a cone height, and at least partially housing the spring therein so that in the fully expanded condition of the spring, the first height of the spring is larger than the cone height.

A mobile exercise platform system having one or more top plates lengthwise oriented in a first longitudinal direction or a second longitudinal direction, and two or more spring bars directly fastened to the top plates and being lengthwise oriented in a transverse direction. A coupling mechanism joins two individual exercise platforms together to increase the modes of exercise that may be performed. Openings in the top plates and support rods fastened to the underside of top plates further increase the versatility of exercise modes.

An exercise device comprising an outer tube having a first end and an open second end. An inner tube has a first end fitting inside the open second end of the outer tube. Thus, the inner tube can slide inside the outer tube. Typically, from about 5 percent to about 30 percent of the inner tube will be inside the outer tube when the device is at rest (that is, no force is applied). When the user applies a force to the first end of the outer tube, the inner tube can slide inside the outer tube against force provided by a resistance device. Depending on the force applied, the inner tube can be inserted from about 10 percent to about 100 percent of its length inside the outer tube. The resistance device can be a spring, an elastic cord, magnetic repulsion, or the like.

An exercise device includes a resilient compression member configured to resist a compressive force from a user, and a resilient tension member configured to couple to opposing sides of the compression member. The resilient tension member is also configured to form a first portion of a loop around the compression member and the user, and resist a tensile force from the user. The exercise device also includes an extension member configured to connect with opposing ends of the tension member to form a second portion of the loop around the compression member and the user.

An exercise apparatus includes a pair of apparatuses wearable on feet of a user. Each apparatus is configurable between expanded configurations and compressed configurations to simulate a selected motion when the user wearing the pair of apparatuses travels by foot. One of the apparatuses can move towards an expanded configuration while the other apparatus moves towards a compressed configuration.

A hip thrust exercise device includes a main body; a foot mount connected to the first body portion; a grip connected to the second body portion; an extension hingedly connected to the main and an abutment element; and a resistance element connected between the extension and main body. The resistance element provides a resistance force when the abutment element is moved away from the first body portion.
