An apparatus for exercising uses one or more spring member that provide a constant force. The apparatus may include one or more grips, tethers, and spring elements that are either connected or secured to one another. The apparatus may also use a free floating object.

An adjustable resistance exercise machine for providing variable resistance forces on a pull cable extending from the machine. The adjustable resistance exercise machine generally includes a plurality of power springs that may be selectively engaged using an adjustment mechanism. By engaging springs with different forces, the resistance may be adjusted incrementally as preferred for performing different exercises. The adjustable resistance exercise machine may be connected to various structures, either below or above an exerciser, to allow the exerciser to choose whether to pull the pull cable up or down during exercise.

A doorway parallel bar fitness device includes a doorway fitness tower portion having a pair of vertical parallel bars, a pair of horizontal parallel bars, a pair of horizontal parallel supports arms and a back support. The doorway parallel bar fitness device also includes a second pair of corresponding hooks disposed on a first end of the pair of horizontal parallel supports arms, the pair of horizontal parallel supports arms are secured to the pair of horizontal parallel supports arms against the pair of horizontal parallel bars with a second pair of corresponding hooks disposed on a first end of the pair of horizontal parallel supports arms. The first pair of corresponding hooks disposed on each of the pair of horizontal parallel supports arms specifically include a screw pin and threaded aperture fastener to secure the pair of horizontal parallel supports arms against the pair of horizontal parallel bars.

A physical exercise device comprising a lower back support pad and a thigh support pad or a single support pad. These support pads are coupled to a buckle. The buckle may in turn be coupled to a suspension system anchored to a surface positioned at least substantially above the buckle. The buckle may provide a taut connection to the suspension system, so that the user may relax into the pads, which would then support the user's weight, permitting the user to concentrate on rotating or otherwise controlling the muscles adjacent to the pelvis, particularly the inner abdomen.
