The present disclosure relates to a simulated rowing machine, including a front moving assembly, a rear moving assembly, a track and a linkage; both the front and the rear moving assemblies are movably connected to the track; the linkage is a closed loop tensioned as two linear moving paths at both ends by a transmission wheel, the closed loop is substantially parallel to the track and includes a first and a second moving paths, respectively; the front and the rear moving assemblies are fixedly connected to the first and the second moving paths, respectively, and the front and the rear moving assemblies are driven in opposite directions when the linkage rotates periodically.

Disclosed herein is a stair climber that includes a frame having a base, an upper axle and a lower axle, and steps revolvably coupled to the upper axle and the lower axle. The stair climber also includes an electric brake mechanism operating in generative mode and coupled with the steps and configured to provide a variable resistive force. Also included is a controller that receives an indication of a selected exercise mode from a user that includes a first speed, a second speed, and a difficulty level. The controller also balances a load, in a learning mode, on the steps based a user's weight at the first speed, and controls, in response to the user applying an additional load to the steps via a rail system, the electric brake mechanism to apply the difficulty level of the selected exercise mode and prevent the steps from exceeding the second speed.

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 that is used to attach one or more weights to the main body member in a removable manner. A upper body pulling strap is attached to the front portion of the main body member, and in a preferred embodiment, the upper body pulling strap includes 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.

A suspension training based functional fitness element (11, 31) comprising: an essentially planar element (22) having an upper edge, a lower edge and two side edges, said planar element (22) being designed to form a pivotable connection to a support element (32) along said upper edge of the planar element (22), a first elongated element (23, 32, 52) connected to said planar element (22) at a first connection point at said lower edge of the planar element (22), a second elongated element (23, 32, 52) connected to said planar element (22) at a second connection point at said lower edge of the planar element (22), and a first and second handle (24), said first and second handle (24) being connected to said first and second elongated elements (23) respectively, whereby that said first and second connection points are arranged such that there is a horizontal offset between the first and second connection points and such that there is a vertical offset between the first connection point and the pivotable connection and a vertical offset between the second connection point and the pivotable connection.

Embodiments of a strength training apparatus and related methods are provided. In one embodiment, a strength training apparatus may include a tower, a first arm and a second arm each pivotally coupled with the tower and each being configured to be selectively positionable independent of each other at multiple angles relative to each other, a first pulley coupled to an end of the first arm, a first cable extending through the first arm and the first pulley, a second pulley coupled to an end of the second arm, a second cable extending through the second arm and the second pulley, a magnetic mechanism coupled to the first cable and the second cable and configured to provide multiple levels of resistance to a user pulling on the first cable and/or the second cable, and a control panel located on the tower.

A foot rehabilitation device, including a main body, including a main surface disposed on a top surface of the main body, an elevated side disposed on at least a portion of a first end of the main body, and a tapered side disposed on at least a portion of a second end of the main body, such that the main surface is oriented downward from the elevated side to the tapered side, a reinforcement body disposed within at least a portion of an interior of the main body to increase a support strength of the main surface, a plurality of foot markers disposed on at least a portion of the main surface to identify a location for placement of at least one foot on the main surface, and a plurality of fasteners removably disposed on at least a portion of the main surface to receive at least one of a rope, a band, and a pulley thereon.

A collapsible exercise bar includes two elongate sections; attachment means for connecting the two elongate sections together and for permitting the two elongate sections to move relative to each other between a position in which the two elongate sections are aligned for use of the bar, and a folded position in which the two elongate sections are generally parallel to each other. A retainer member is slidable relative to the two elongate sections and includes attachment means for engaging cooperating attachment means on one of the two elongate sections to immobilize the retainer member in a position overlying contiguous edges of the two elongate sections when the two elongate sections are aligned for use of the bar. A connector is provided on the exercise bar and is configured to be connected to a resistance device.

A tire exercise system has a tire having an interior portion covered with an inner tire cover. At least four shoulder strap attachment points are attached to the tire and configured to secure a right and left shoulder strap. At least two handles are attached to the tire and configured to accommodate human hands. At least two anchors are attached to the tire and configured to accommodate a rope system. A waist harness includes a waist belt. An anchor is attached to the waist belt. A rope system is attached to the tire and the waist harness. The rope system includes a first carabiner attached to a bungee cord, which can then be attached to the tire. A ring is attached to the bungee cord. A rope is attached to the ring. A second carabiner is attached to the rope, which can then be attached to the waist harness.

The goal of this invention is to provide an ergonomic handle for cable-based exercise equipment which is comfortable in the user's hands and increases user strength and range of motion. This exercise handle allows wrist flexion and extension as well as forearm and hand pronation and supination. The handle is composed of a grip which is rotatably coupled to a bracket, which is in turn connected to a rotatable connection assembly which freely rotates along an axis parallel to the cable.
