An indoor, stationary, bicycle training device that provides advantages over conventional designs of exercise bicycles is provided. The stationary bicycle may include a tilting/pivoting mechanism to orient the indoor bicycle to simulate descending or climbing. The indoor bicycle may include flexible and resilient frame elements to support the indoor training device to move side-to-side under some riding situations thereby simulating the side-to-side swaying motion of an outdoor bicycle under the same riding situations. The indoor bicycle may include several combinations of frame adjustments to provide configurable dimensions of the indoor bicycle to adjust the frame to properly fit the rider, which may be adjusted based on corresponding dimensions of a user's outdoor bicycle. Still other aspects of the stationary bicycle device may aid in creating an outdoor feeling while using the device.

Disclosed is a track exercise device including at least two substantially parallel tracks, at least four movable platforms, wherein at least two movable platforms are on a first track, and wherein at least two movable platforms are on a second track. A transverse attachment attaches the movable platforms on adjacent tracks, a longitudinal attachment attaches the movable platforms on the same track, and a tilting adjustment provides for inclined or flat movement.

A multipurpose exercise device having a base that rests on a support surface and a user platform upon which the user stands. The lower end of a perpendicular support post is mounted to the base to axially pivot thereon and the upper end of the post is pivotally mounted to the lower surface of the user platform. The user platform pivots with the support post in a horizontal plane parallel to the support surface and pivots on the support post in a vertical plane perpendicular to the horizontal support surface. Resistance elements are provided having one end mounted to the support post and the other end mounted to the base to control the velocity and angle of pivot of the user platform in the horizontal plane. Preferably, a plurality of resistance elements are provided having one end mounted to the base and the other end mounted to the user platform to control the velocity and angle of pivot of the user platform in the vertical plane. In use, the user stands on the user platform and performs exercise motions to propel the user platform to pivot in the horizontal plane and the vertical plane. The user platform may include various type foot mounts to simulate sports activities such as skiing and snowboarding.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a gymnastic apparatus and method for cycling simulation having a transmission portion driven by pedals, through which a user may perform cycling training. The transmission portion may comprise a flywheel and a braking portion, which may apply a braking force to the flywheel. The apparatus may further comprise a control logic unit, through which training parameters may be set, and a sensor coupled to the control logic unit. The sensor may detect a signal relating to the torque acting on the flywheel and thereby send a signal to the control logic unit; the control logic unit may be configured to adjust the braking force of the braking portion applied to the flywheel, thereby adjusting the resistance to the pedals as a function of parameters set, as appropriate, and communicate information and adjust such changes via a feedback signal from the sensor.

An exercise device focusing on core strengthening and development of abdominal and gluteal muscle groups provides a curved inner track which provides a rolling seat and a flat outer track providing a rolling leg support over which the legs of a user engage, positioning the body in a recumbent position, with contraction and extension of the abdomen of the user compelling the rolling seat and rolling leg support using a pelvic thrusting motion to strengthen and exercise lower back, abdominal, gluteal, quadriceps and hamstring muscles and to improve and refine a shape and condition of the muscle groups.

A training apparatus/device has a frame and two elongated pedal elements, which are pivotally connected to the frame. The pedal elements are each provided with a footrest and a pedal axle and are, by a coupling element connected to each other, so that the pedal elements, in use of the training apparatus, are held parallel to each other. Further, the training apparatus has a transmission mechanism, which is connected via the coupling element with the pedal elements, as well as resistance mechanism, which is connected to the transmission mechanism and is driven by lateral displacement of the pedal elements. The coupling element is formed by an elongated element, whereby near each of the ends of the pedal elements is connected to the pedal element axles via a ball joint. As a result, this makes the training device less susceptible to interference and compact.

An exercise device is disclosed including a first elongated structural member extending in a longitudinal direction. A resistance element is connected to the first elongated structural member, the resistance element providing a resistance force. A seat is connected to the first structural member, the seat includes a seating surface. A drive which drives the resistance element includes a handle to be held by a user. The seat and resistance element are moveable with respect to each other in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction and a centroid of the resistance element is arranged lower than an upper edge of the first elongated structural member.

A variable difficulty balance board for standing desk and fitness use is provided. The balance board facilitates the conditioning and rehabilitation of the nerves, bones, muscles, and joints of the body by limiting the range of motion and biomechanical forces around the longitudinal and lateral axes. The balance board comprises a deck, a fulcrum receiver, and a fulcrum insert. The fulcrum insert is press-fit into a fulcrum cavity of the fulcrum receiver. The fulcrum insert extends outward from the fulcrum receiver and provides an area where the balance board can pivot. The fulcrum insert may be replaced by the user such that it may occupy either a first orientation or a second orientation within the fulcrum cavity. The first orientation and the second orientation configures the fulcrum insert such that it provides a lateral or longitudinal axis of balance relative to the deck, respectively.

Exercise machine includes a base and a cushion. The cushion is slidably connected to the rotary rod. A left pedal and a right pedal are arranged at the front end of the base or at positions. A supporting rail is arranged on the base and has two sides respectively provided with guide grooves. A sliding frame is cooperatively disposed on the supporting rail and provided with left wheels and right wheels, which are respectively matched with the guide grooves. A left cross rod and a right cross rod respectively extend out from two sides of the supporting rod. A left pull rod and a right pull rod are respectively hinged to the end of the left cross rod and the end of the right cross rod. Elastic ropes are disposed between the left pull rod and the rotary rod, and also between the right pull rod and the rotary rod.
