A rowing machine has a base, a seat, a rotating plate, two oar components, a damping mechanism and a transmission mechanism; the base with a rack and a slope rail; the seat cushion slidably coupled to the rail; the rotating plate with a fixing rotating shaft rotatably assembled to the rack through the rotating shaft; two oar components respectively connected to the two ends of the rotating shaft by unilateral bearings in universal joining way to unilaterally drive the rotating plate to rotate when swinging; the rotation damping mechanism is assembled to the rack; the transmission mechanism assembled between the rotating plate and the damping mechanism to drive a damping wheel of the damping mechanism when the rotating plate rotates.

A fitness and rehabilitation aid is provided, using mostly centrifugal forces that are taking the body centre of mass from its natural position where the mutual configuration of the individual components, that create the aid, optimally stimulate the desired muscle parts. The aid consists of a loading head for achieving the desired centrifugal force and a handle for grasping by the user. The loading head and handle are interconnected by a flexible connecting component. A length of the flexible connecting component from the point where the flexible connecting component leaves the handle to the point where the connection of flexible connecting component and loading head occurs, i.e. the hole for entering of the connecting component to the loading head, equals at least 600 mm.

A device for use with an exerciser device, such as a reformer, which permits the adjustment of a resistance system, even when connected to a resistance source, by selectively relieving the resistance force imparted on the resistance adjustment system when changing the resistance and automatically reengaging the resistance force when exercising. A strain relief is coupled to a linkage between the resistance source and the resistance adjuster. When engaged, the strain relief selectively reduces the resistance force transmitted through the linkage to the resistance adjuster to permit movement of the resistance adjuster relative to the purchase. When disengaged the strain relief permits transmission of the resistance force through the linkage to the resistance adjuster.

A bi-directional exercise machine has a work arm, first and second cams coupled to the work arm, a resistance mechanism, and a pulley assembly that couples the resistance mechanism to the work arm via the first and second cams so that movement of the work arm is resisted by the resistance mechanism according to first and second resistance profiles provided by the first and second cams, respectfully. A primary pulley cable has a first end coupled to the first cam and a second end coupled to the second cam. When the work arm is in a rest position, the ends of the primary pulley cable extend from cable tracks of the cams, respectively, at a tangent so that the resistance mechanism applies a resistance force on the work arm via the pulley assembly immediately upon movement of the work arm out of the rest position.

An exercise storage system includes a storage compartment including at least one storage element. Exercise equipment is stored on the storage elements. A door is connected to the storage compartment with a hinge such that the viewing angle of the door is adjustable. A display on the door includes a backlit display and a mirrored display. A user may select exercise equipment from the storage compartment and perform an exercise activity while viewing the display.

The present invention is directed to a system and method for attaching exercise modalities such as elastic tubular resistance bands, elastic flat resistance loops, non-elastic suspension-type exercise systems in a plurality of different positions and orientations as well as other exercise, rehabilitation and stretching components that either require or benefit from a stationary anchor unit.

The present disclosure relates to a modular strap-based exercise apparatus, kit, and method of use thereof, and more particularly to an apparatus, kit, and method for modularly connecting components of a strap-based exercise device. In an embodiment, the strap-based exercise apparatus includes one or more infinity loops configured to attach various portions of the exercise apparatus together. The exercise apparatus may be provided as a kit including an elongated member, a grip assembly, and one or more mechanisms for adjusting the length of a strap and connecting straps together.

A flexible weight sled includes a main body member made from a flexible material, such as a nylon webbing, canvas, or the like. The main body member includes a weight strap and a rear weight strap that is used to attach one or more weights to the main body member in a removable manner. Two pairs of upper body pulling straps are attached to the front portion of the main body member, and in a preferred embodiment, the upper body pulling straps include a pair of handles on a distal end thereof. The weight sled may be folded or rolled up for purposes of storage and/ or transport.

Suspension training systems include one or more bands, and one or more handles. The handles can be coupled to the bands, and transmit user-generated forces to the bands. The systems also include a force sensor that measures the user-generated forces acting on the bands, and a computing device that acquires and displays information relating to the exercise session. The systems can generate recommendations for future exercise sessions based on the acquired information, so that exercise sessions can be tailed to the specific needs and capabilities of the user.

A symmetric upright rotating disc exercise machine includes a base unit and two upright rotating disc units. Each upright rotating disc unit includes a rotating shaft, an upright disc, and a grip. The rotating shaft is pivotally connected to the base unit in a horizontal direction. The upright disc is mounted to the rotating shaft. The upright discs of the two upright rotating disc units are arranged to face each other. The two upright rotating disc units are separated from each other by a distance in the horizontal direction to form an operation space. The grip is mounted to the upright disc and located in the operation space.
