Yoga ball paddleboard
A yoga paddleboard may include a yoga board body having a hole extending therethrough. The hole may be formed at the approximate lateral and longitudinal center of the paddleboard. The hole may be sized and configured to support a yoga ball pressed in the hole to establish an interfacing friction connection therebetween. The yoga ball may be used to perform yoga exercises while floating on the paddleboard. Alternative embodiments may include yoga ball supports configured to support yoga balls of different sizes and/or multiple yoga balls for use with the paddleboard.
Resistance training device and method
A method for use with a physical training device is provided. The device including an elastic resistance strap having first and second handles. The method includes pulling at least one of the first and second handles to generate force on a target muscle group through resistance training. The method also includes pulling the at least one of the first and second handles to generate anaerobic and aerobic muscle activity within the target muscle group through cardiovascular interval training.
TRAINING AND REHABILITATION DEVICE
A device for training and rehabilitation of a limb is provided. The device provides a board with a plurality of movement tracks to allow for controlled movement of the limb in various directions. Blockers and other controlling structures may be arranged on the device to limit range of motion of the movement of the limb.
Exercise device and related methods thereof
An exercise device includes a main pulley configured to rotate about a hub and having a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a peripheral surface. The exercise device also includes a lower pulley coupled to a resistance drum and a belt wrapped partially around the peripheral surface of the main pulley coupling the main pulley to the lower pulley. Brake lining is positioned inside the resistance drum and are configured to be adjusted inwardly and outwardly along interior sidewalls of the resistance drum. In addition, a cable is coupled to the brake lining to control an amount of resistance to a rotation of the resistance drum, and a crank shaft is coupled to a hub of the main pulley and configured to be operated by feet of an individual for rotating the main pulley about the hub against the resistance to exercise the individual.
PORTABLE AND FOLDABLE GLUTEUS MAXIMUS BRIDGING AND HIP THRUSTING EXERCISE APPARATUS
An apparatus that satisfies the need for a portable and foldable exercise equipment to perform glute bridge, hip thrust and other resistance band exercises without the need for additional equipment. The apparatus includes opposing panels hingedly connected, and accommodations to affix resistance bands to the panels. A cross member is preferably hingedly connected to one panel and extends through an opening and engages the other panel. A resistance band may include an adjustable belt so that a user may securely fasten himself or herself between the opposing panels and the resistance band to perform the glute bridge, hip thrust or other exercises.
Training and rehabilitation device
A device for training and rehabilitation of a limb is provided. The device provides a board with a plurality of movement tracks to allow for controlled movement of the limb in various directions. Blockers and other controlling structures may be arranged on the device to limit range of motion of the movement of the limb.
Moving exercise apparatus
A Moving Exercise Apparatus is provided which includes a frame structure member, an intermediate support member, a user support member, and a track guide member. The intermediate support member moves upon the frame structure member along a generally linear path of motion. The user support member moves upon the intermediate support member also along a generally linear path of motion, generally perpendicular to the movement of the intermediate support member upon the frame structure member. A track guide member is mounted upon the frame structure member at a location below the user support member. The user moves the user support member, which operatively engages the track guide member and follows a predetermined path of motion as designated by the track guide member. Different track guide members may be utilized to provide different paths of motion.
Exercise Machine Support System
An exercise machine support system for providing increased versatility including inclination or declination of an exercise surface, a reduction in the overall length and width of the exercise machine, and an enhanced user interface which reduces the risk of injury. The exercise machine support system generally includes a cantilevered exercise machine which is adapted to have a variable angle of incline or decline with respect to a horizontal ground surface. The exercise machine will generally include a base and a support which extends between the base and the exercise machine. The upper end of the support is connected to the exercise machine by a first pivot such that the exercise machine pivots about the support. An adjustment device may be utilized to pivot the exercise machine and thus adjust its angle of incline. Various types of adjustment devices are disclosed, including an actuator, ratchet-and-pawl, gears, and cam.
Physical therapy device for lower limbs and therapeutic methods thereof
The invention concerns a device and methods for unilateral or bilateral physical therapy of lower limbs of a person. The device comprises a curved rail mounted on a base and a pair of support members on which the legs are disposed. The curved rail is configured to allow lateral movements of the lower limbs with the support members, the lateral movements being driven by a force of the lower limbs. The initial reinforcement of the lower limbs of the person is improved by the use of this device, which reduces friction or resistance caused by the device during prescribed movements. The invention provides to patients with severe lower limb disability a physical therapy device that is easy to use with minimum supervision by a physical therapist.
Exercise Machine Inclination Device
An exercise machine inclination device for providing variable exercise intensity on an exercise machine by inclining the exercise machine. The exercise machine inclination device generally includes a base adapted for being positioned upon a floor, a support structure adapted for supporting an exercise machine, a hinge pivotally connecting the base and the support structure and an actuator connected between the base and the support structure, wherein the actuator adjusts an angle of the support structure.
