Weightlifting assembly
A weightlifting assembly includes a wall mount bracket configured for mounting to a wall surface and a weightlifting rack assembly connected to the wall mount bracket. The weightlifting rack assembly may have various configurations, including a foldable weight rack assembly, a pull-up bar, a fixed weightlifting rack, a wall-mount weightlifting rack, or various other configurations. The wall mount bracket may be elongated along a lateral width thereof and may have a first mounting region and a second mounting region spaced from each other along the lateral width of the wall mount bracket. The wall mount bracket may also include a central panel that is spaced from the wall surface to provide clearance for fasteners for connection to the weightlifting rack assembly, and in some embodiments, the weightlifting rack assembly may be connected to multiple wall mount panels.
Multifunctional fitness system for rotational exercise
An integrated fitness system including a slidable unit that is slidably attached to a column vertical to the ground and that has exercise units mounted thereon. The exercise units are disposable in any of a plurality of configurations and have arms that are rotatable in any of a plurality of planes. The exercise units can be positioned along the column at any of a plurality of heights by sliding the slidable unit along the column to allow a user to use the exercise units for both arm and leg exercises.
Fitness machine with arc plates
Improved designs for exercise machines that facilitate muscle development and other therapeutics are disclosed. The machine includes a frame, a pulley assembly, and cable extending through the pulley assembly. The cable has attachments, including an attachment for connecting to a pull handle. The cable is also connected to a selectively variable moveable resistance unit. This unit is structured to provide an elastic resistance when a pulling force is applied to the pull handle. The unit is connected to the cable and includes an elastomeric body that provides the elastic resistance and also includes an arc plate that provides a curved support member on which a portion of the elastomeric body at least partially wraps around. Movement of the arc plate causes the elastomeric body to stretch and to provide the elastic resistance.
Salmon ladder training device
This disclosure addresses an exercise device adapted to enable the user to perform a salmon ladder exercise. The ladder includes a frame with at least one pair of support protrusions that receive an exercise bar. A bearing surface that receives the shaft of a catch array rotatably mounted in the frame. The device further includes a braking mechanism that applies a variable suppression force to the catch array shaft, the variable suppression adjusting the force required to rotate the catch array shaft in the bearing surface.
Multifunctional electronic resistance strength training fitness device
An exercise device comprising a metallic box, two motors mounted at left and right sides of the box, a mirror touch screen, a camera, a loudspeaker, two motors mounted at the left and right bottom of the box, movable arms at slide tracks at both sides, a voltage transformer for the mirror touch screen, and four drive boards for four motors. All these four motors connect with gear reducers. Four carriages ride on both sides of slide tracks. The upper left and right two carriages provide support for upper limbs exercise. The lower left and right two carriages provide support for lower limbs exercise.
Vertically-mounted modular fitness system
A modular fitness system includes a set of two or more spaced-apart elongate wall bars that are secured to a wall or similar vertical structure at spaced apart locations on the wall and at a substantially vertical orientation. Each wall bar has a linear array of wall through-holes incrementally disposed along the length of the wall bar for attaching the wall bar to the wall. A first set of two or more horizontal elongate bars are installed on top of and orthogonal to the wall bars to form a T with the wall bars. Each of the horizontal elongate bars comprises a first linear array of bar through-holes spaced at increments along a length of the elongate bar that match at least a portion of the linear array of wall through-holes when secured to the wall. The linear arrays of bar through-holes in the horizontal elongate bars, when secured to the set of wall bars, form a rectangular array of equally spaced through-holes in a plane parallel to and offset from the planar surface of the vertical structure. The rectangular array provides locations for attachment of an additional set of elongate bars, one or more components for holding fitness equipment, or both.
BATTLE ROPE STRENGTH TRAINER
In some embodiments, a battle rope strength trainer device is provided. The battle rope strength trainer device provides a multifunction exercise device that combines strength building properties of body weight strength exercises with the cardiovascular training of battle rope oscillation exercises in one product. In one embodiment, the battle rope strength trainer device includes an anchor, a rope and a mounting device. The rope includes a first end coupled to the anchor and two free ends. The first end is attachable to a structure via the anchor and the two free ends are positioned opposite to the first end. The mounting device is coupled to the structure above the anchor. In that regard, the mounting device is adapted to receive a portion of the rope associated with each of the two free ends to enable movement of the rope for a plurality of exercises.
