An exercise device includes spaced-apart exercise members engageable by appendages of an exerciser and moveable in opposed directions, a body support member for supporting an exerciser and a platform below the body support member. A synchronizing drive system connects the exercise members with the body support member for moving the body support member in opposite directions relative to the platform by movement of the exercise members in opposite directions, respectively.

The present invention relates to the field of fitness training devices and exercise machines. More specifically, a substantially horizontal exercise machine comprising an exercise platform slidable along one or more rails aligned with the longitudinal axis of the machine structure, the slidable platform spring-biased towards one end of the machine, is tiltable to allow for one end of the machine to be raised or lowered relative to the opposed end of the machine.

An exercise machine resistance adjustment system for providing an exerciser the ability to immediately adjust the resistance force by changing their body position on the movable carriage or end platforms. The exercise machine resistance adjustment system generally includes a frame, a carriage movably positioned on the frame, a spring connected to the carriage to apply a biasing force to the carriage, one or more left projections within the carriage adapted for a left hand of an exerciser to grasp, and one or more right projections within the carriage adapted for a right hand of an exerciser to grasp. The exerciser is able to efficiently adjust the amount of resistance force applied to the carriage by repositioning their hands (or feet) from a first set of projections at a first distance to a second set of projections at a second distance from the first end of the exercise machine.

An aqua resistance fin assembly comprises two fin components and at least one fastening member for fitting the fin components to a user's limb in a side-by-side configuration around the limb. Each fin component comprises a base adapted to fit against a user's limb and adapted to be secured to the user's limb by the fastening member, and at least two longitudinal fins and at least one lateral fin on an outer side of the base.

An exercise device includes an elongate platform and a pair of foot support members slidably mounted on the elongate platform. A mount permits reciprocating movement of the elongate platform and a guide member retains a body support member vertically above the elongate platform. The guide member guides the body support member for movement as an exerciser slides in opposite directions along a longitudinal dimension of the elongate platform.

An exercise device, including a base, a body connected to the base, a tension system connected to a top portion of the body, a plurality of rotatable extensions disposed at side portions of the tension system, each of the plurality of rotatable extensions comprising an insertion end at an end portion of each of the plurality of rotatable extensions, and at least one removable attachment to attach to the insertion end of each of the plurality of rotatable extensions.

An adjustment device for exercise apparatuses which comprises a flange, a coupling body coupled to the flange by a pressure bar, an adjustment protrusion and a pressure pin, a coupling ring through which the coupling body is passed, a vertical arm connected to the coupling body so as to be adjusted in the back and forth direction and rotationally, and a coupling arm connected to the vertical arm.

The present invention extends to a re-configurable multi-purpose exercise device. In general, aspects include a re-configurable multi-purpose exercise device that can be configured as an abdominal roller, a pair of pushup stands, or a jump rope. Some aspects include a first roller and a second roller that can attach to one another by mating extending members formed on each respective roller with slots formed on each respective roller. A first handle and a second handle can attach to one or another of the respective rollers by either attaching to the extending members on the rollers or inserting through a hole formed in the rollers. A rope can connect on each end to the first handle and the second handle to form a jump rope. Additionally, some aspects include a two-piece cavity configured for storing the rope.

A reversible resistance exercise machine for reversing the direction of applied resistance against a movable platform of an exercising machine. The exercise machine has a frame, a carriage movably positioned upon the frame, and a plurality of biasing members. A plurality of first tension connectors are accessible near the first end of the carriage and are adapted for removably attaching selected biasing members near the first end of the carriage to resist motion of the carriage in the first direction. A plurality of second tension connectors are accessible near the second end of the carriage and are adapted for removably attaching selected biasing members near the second end of the carriage to resist motion of the carriage in the second direction. A user selectable amount of force may be applied to the carriage to resist movement in either of the first direction and the second direction.

An aqua resistance dumbbell comprises a tubular wall that provides a bore for receiving a user's hand from each end of the bell. A rod is located within the bore and extending laterally across the bore to be gripped by a user with one or both hands from one or both ends of the bore. The dumbbell has a plurality of longitudinal fins extend along the tubular wall on an outer side of the tubular wall, and at least one lateral fin that extends laterally at least part way around the tubular wall. An aqua resistance fin assembly comprises two fin components and at least one fastening member for fitting the fin components to a user's limb in a side-by-side configuration around the limb. Each fin component comprises a base adapted to fit against a user's limb and adapted to be secured to the user's limb by the fastening member, and at least two longitudinal fins and at least one lateral fin on an outer side of the base.
