A track exercise device with at least first and second substantially parallel tracks, and first, second, third, and fourth movable platforms. The first and third movable platforms are movable on the first track, and the second and fourth movable platforms are movable on the second track. Transverse attachments selectively and respectively attach the first and second movable platforms together on the first and second tracks and the third and fourth movable platforms together on the first and second tracks. Longitudinal attachments selectively and respectively attach the first and third movable platforms together on the first track and the second and fourth movable platforms together on the second track. A tilting adjustment selectively provides for inclined or flat movement of the first, second, third, and fourth movable platforms.

A resistance training system includes a tackle providing mechanical advantage, and a user performs strength training exercises by pulling or pushing on the running block while resisting motion of the running block by pulling or pushing on the free end of the runner. The running block, fixed block and free end of the system may be secured at various locations of the body.

An exercise machine carriage handle system for providing handles for an exerciser to grasp with their hands thereby expanding the type of exercises that may be performed. The exercise machine carriage handle system generally includes a frame having a track, a carriage movably connected to the track, a bias member connected between the frame and the carriage, a first handle connected to the carriage near the first side, and a second handle connected to the carriage near the second side. The first handle and second handle are adapted for grasping with a first hand and a second hand respectively of a user during the performance of an exercise on the exercise machine.

An exercise machine creates a simulated continuous resisted climbing motion. The machine includes a floor- or ground-contacting base frame and two or more substantially vertically oriented uprights, wherein at least one upright is rigidly connected to the base frame. The machine further includes two handles and two foot pedals, each handle and each foot pedal being movably engaged with an upright for linear reciprocating motion along the upright. The handles and foot pedals are interconnected so that they move concurrently. An adjustable resistance mechanism may be operatively connected to the interconnection of the handles and foot pedals to provide adjustable resistance for the simulated continuous climbing motion.

A combination exercise assembly for performing aerobic and strength training exercises includes a base, which can be positioned on a substantially horizontal surface. A stationary bicycle is engaged to the base so that a user positioned on a seat of the stationary bicycle faces a first end of the base. A lat pulldown machine engaged to the base proximate to a second end of the base is positioned for engagement by the user positioned on the seat of the stationary bicycle. The stationary bicycle is pedaled to perform aerobic exercise and the lat pulldown machine resists a pulldown motion to perform strength training exercises.

An exercise device includes a base member configured for engaging a surface of a mounting structure, a coupling system for coupling the base member to the structure, and at least one resistance member coupled to the base member. Each of the at least one resistance members includes a control member configured to be manipulated by a portion of a user. The mounting structure includes a first surface and an oppositely arranged second surface with the first surface facing towards the user and the second surface configured to engage the base member. The configuration of the base member relative to the mounting structure allows for at least a portion of a force applied to one of the resistance members to be transferred to the mounting structure.

An exercise device for alternating movement of arms and legs by which users perform alternating active exercises and passive exercises repetitively is revealed. The exercise device includes a base, a hand driving member, and a leg driving member. Both the hand and leg driving member are pivotally connected to the base while the leg driving member is arranged under the hand driving member. One end of the hand driving member and one end of the leg driving member are configured to be pivotally rotated on the base. The hand and leg driving members are pivotally connected by a linkage. By the pivotal connections of the above parts, the hand and leg driving members are linked and moved with each other so as to lift up or press down arms and legs for stretching. The stretching of arms and legs also generates pressure on the abdomen of the user to exercise his or her abdomen.

Described is a utility training flotation vest designed for physical and leisure activities such as strength training, cardiovascular training, water activities, posture assistance, body building competitions and hiking. This invention is comprised of one or more connector strap to assemble and/or disassemble, sling band, chambers, storage compartment, loop, fastener, working strap, compressed lining, mesh and optional attachments, preferably to limb straps. The sling band comprising of at least one adjustable working strap to adjust the customized strength and/or length wherein can expand and return to the original length. The chambers and compartment are designed to comprise the sling bag and/or weighted objects.

According to one example, an exercise system includes a vertical housing, a first weighted touchpoint coupled to the vertical housing and configured to allow a user to exercise one or more muscles on a first side of the user, a first weight system coupled to the first weighted touchpoint, a second weighted touchpoint coupled to the vertical housing and configured to allow the user to exercise one or more muscles on a second side of the user, and a second weight system coupled to the second weighted touchpoint. The exercise system further includes a control system configured to cause the first weight system to automatically provide a first heavier weight to the first weighted touchpoint for a first exercise and further cause the second weight system to automatically provide a second lighter weight to the second weighted touchpoint for the first exercise.
