A hex flex apparatus for improving resistance training is presented. The hex flex apparatus is useful for providing more than the standard two-dimension experience, in that a standard apparatus requires large jumps in band size and resistance to move up to the next level. The hex flex apparatus further adds a third dimension by allowing for smaller, more gradual increments to resistance, which leads to more and steadier strength progress before reaching a plateau or sticking point. A platform with two handles is described as is the band which is used to provide tension for resistance training. Further adjustable rods are shown which can be placed into various holes to control the tension and the rods have a ring magnet which provides for the rods being secured in the holes. The bands are further around the rods to access the value of the rods.

Presented is an exercising apparatus capable of capable of being used by a user for performing a variety of physical exercises. The exercising apparatus includes a handle, a mounting assembly, a clamp assembly and an arm extension assembly. The arm extension assembly includes multiple telescopically nestable arms. At least one telescopically nestable arm includes a weight attachment portion such that a user can lift weight attached to the weight attachment portion of the arm extension assembly by moving the handle. The mounting assembly is configured to allow rotation of the arm extension assembly in at least one direction. The exercising apparatus is collapsible and could be easily assembled and disassembled and installed at multiple locations depending on the user's requirements.

The present disclosure provides training systems and apparatus for working out. The training system includes a pivotal bracket and a workout bar. The pivotal bracket includes a first portion and a second portion pivotally coupled to the first portion. The first portion is couplable to a support surface. The workout bar is coupled to the second portion of the pivotal bracket. The workout bar includes a cylindrical weight receiving portion positioned distal relative to the second portion of the pivotal bracket and a rectangular intermediate portion positioned between the second portion of the pivotal bracket and the cylindrical weight receiving portion. The weight bar may include a plurality of pairs of holes spaced apart along a length of the bar for receiving various attachment members for performing landmine workout movements. The training system may include other support structures to which the pivotal bracket is connected.

A weightlifting machine that includes a pulley system and a cable system that attaches to a weight rack frame to allow a user to perform a weightlifting exercise. The pulley system may include a first pulley and a second pulley where the cable system engages each pulley. The cable system may have a first end connected to a grip attachment and a second end attached to a resistance element. The resistance element may include a resistance band, a weight support that holds a weight plate, a set of weight plates, or other type of resistance element. The cable system may extend from the pulley through an opening located one of the frame members that form the frame.

A weightlifting exercising system includes a frame having a pair of columns. A pair of lifting assemblies is provided and each of the columns has one of the lifting assemblies mounted thereon. The lifting assemblies each include a mount and an axle extending through the mount and rotational relative to the mount. A first arm is fixedly attached to the axle. A second arm is rotationally coupled to the axle. A lift angle is defined between the first and second arms and is alterable from 0° to 180°. A locking member releasably locks the second arm with respect to the axle such that the lift angle is releasably retained. One of the first and second arms has a handle attached thereto and the other of the first and second arms has a weight receiver attached thereto. One or more weight plates is removably positionable on the weight receiver.
