An exercise device of the type including a frame with a first crank assembly rotatably coupled to the frame about a first axis and a second crank assembly rotatably coupled to the frame about a second axis. A control system may be used in communication with the first crank assembly and the second crank assembly, which may provide a synchronous movement of the first crank assembly relative to the second crank assembly. A pedal arm may be provided with a first end pivotally coupled to the first crank assembly and a pedal positioned on a second end. A crank link may be used with one end coupled to the second crank assembly and a second end coupled to the pedal arm. The crank link may be movable on the pedal arm which may provide varying paths of motion of the pedals.

An adjustable elliptical trainer is disclosed, which includes a body, a sliding rail, a connecting piece and a movement mechanism. The sliding rail has one end rotatably connected to the body around an axis and other end detachably connected to the body by the connecting piece along a longitudinal extension direction of the sliding rail. The movement mechanism includes a sliding part matched with the sliding rail, and the sliding part is provided on the sliding rail and is slidable along the sliding rail. The axis is perpendicular to the longitudinal extension direction of the sliding rail, a first connection point is provided at a joint between the connecting piece and the sliding rail, and a second connection point is provided at a joint between the connecting piece and the body, the connecting piece is configured to be movable relative to the sliding rail and/or the body.

Tri-Power Exercising device allows a rider to simultaneously, or on demand, exercise virtually all muscle groups in his lower and upper body. The device includes a bicycle frame, pedals, forearm bars, sliding seat, computer and electronic display recommending energy modulation amounts from various muscle groups to optimize physical performance on any given trek. Because riders can exercise virtually all muscle groups at once, they reduce their exercising time, continuously builds muscle tissue throughout their whole body, and exercises their cardiovascular and respiratory systems completely. Riders operate the device by rotating legs on the pedals, rotationally oscillating the forearm bars up and down with their arms and shoulders, and then use core muscles to pull and push the seat back and forth on the slider. Inverted racks, pinion gears, and one-way bearings turn this linear power from the oscillating forearm bars and sliding seat into torque that rotates the crank axle.

An exercise device comprises a frame, two first swing arms, two second swing arms, two pedals, a resistance device, two cranks, two link rods, two limiting rods, and two upper linking assemblies. By arrangement of the above components, the moving path of each pedal can be an elliptical path. In some embodiment, an angle-adjustment device is used to adjust the slope of the elliptical moving path.

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 respiratory training device provides a method for assisting in training for a more effective breathing technique, particularly when performing exercises with the device. The exercise device is constructed similar to an exercise bicycle, and having movable handle grips that motion a rotating wheel. An abdominal pad is located at the rear of the device. The device is supported on a platform and having a bench seat. In use, the user practices a particular breathing technique while pressing their abdominal area against the pad and operating the handle grips.

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 exercise machine may include a reciprocating linkage that supports one or more pedals configured to move in a closed loop (e.g., elliptical) path as a user exercises with the machine. The exercise machine may be adjustable to vary a characteristic of the exercise provided by the machine, for example by changing an incline of a rail supporting the reciprocating linkage, and thus an angle of the closed loop path. The exercise machine may vary the incline with a lift mechanism operatively associated with the front upright frame of the machine, which may also support a resistance assembly, all in a compact form factor that may be more aesthetically pleasing and practical for relatively smaller exercise spaces.

An exercise machine rail indicia system for providing indicia to improve exercise instruction. The exercise machine rail indicia system generally includes a frame a rail, a carriage movably positioned upon the rail, a bias member connected between the carriage and the frame that applies a bias force upon the carriage, a first position indicator positioned upon the upper surface of the rail, and a second position indicator positioned upon the upper surface of the rail. The first position indicator and the second position indicator are distally spaced apart a first distance. The first position indicator and the second position indicator visually indicate to the exerciser where to position the carriage along the first rail during the performance of an exercise.

A climbing exercise apparatus having ipsilateral and contralateral modes of operation may include a frame supporting movable generally vertically oriented members. The vertically oriented members may include arm and foot support members rotatably connected to carriage members movably supported on the frame. The climbing exercise apparatus may include three-dimensional movement capabilities for a user's arms and feet to move through three dimensional paths of motion during an exercise activity.
