A retractable wall mounted weightlifting bench system for that is extended outwardly from the wall when in use and retracted towards the wall when not in use. The retractable wall mounted weightlifting bench system generally includes a mounting bracket adapted to be attached to a wall, a bench pivotally connected to the mounting bracket that has an extended position and a retracted position, a first support member pivotally attached to the bench and a second support member pivotally attached to the bench. The first surface of the bench is horizontal or inclined when in the extended position to be used as a weightlifting bench. The first surface of the bench is in a substantially vertical position when in the retracted position for compact storage of the bench near the wall.

The Under the Desk Treadmill allows an office worker to engage in slow walking sessions while working without compromising the quality and quantity of job performance. It consists of a foldable, automated, walking treadmill, which is easily installed and stored under almost any existing office desk, requires no additional space, and does not diminish the under the desk space required for the desk worker's legs. The conversion from treadmill into the storage position and back to the walking position is automated. The office worker can perform the full range of office duties while walking due to the “Stop” element claimed by the basis, Office Treadmill patent. Additionally, the Under the Desk Treadmill can be used as a standalone unit, providing a low-speed walking unit for old, sick, recovering, or disabled persons.

A garment attachable to an exercise or therapeutic apparatus that is capable of elevating the user slightly above the ground, reducing potential for injury and strain by shifting the user's weight to the frame of the apparatus. The garment is incorporated into the apparatus by comprising panels under the buttocks and around the thighs, providing balance and lifting the user comfortably in conjunction with the frame. A low-friction plate is positioned under the user's feet so that the user can ambulate freely while held in place by the frame.

A method of exercising includes positioning a foot of a user onto a pedal of an exercise device. The pedal is pivotably connected to a pair of supports forming a triangular base and has a neutral position relative to a pivot axis of the device. The method includes applying a first force to the pedal to rotate the pedal about the pivot axis in a first direction, toward a first support. The method includes resisting movement of the pedal toward the first support with a resistance mechanism of the device. The method includes applying a second force to the pedal to rotate the pedal about the pivot axis in a second direction, opposite the first direction, toward a second support and away from the first support. The method includes resisting movement of the pedal toward the second support with the resistance mechanism of the device.

A motorized lifting rack that selectively lifts and lowers a barbell through linear actuators is provided. The powered lifting rack can engage a barbell at floor level. The linear actuators can also selectively raise and lower safety bars design to spot the barbell for a single user. The powered lifting rack is embodied in a system that includes a platform that the safety bars can nest in. The platform provides a plurality of actuating benches for a user of the barbell to utilize.

A collapsible sports cage system. The system includes a wench that has a retractable cable. A collapsible sports cage is connected to the retractable cable. The collapsible sports cage is capable of moving from an in-use upright position to a non-use lowered position. The collapsible sports cage has pivot feet and pivotally connected support posts that are pivotally connected to the pivot feet. Lower position support braces are rigidly connected to the pivotally connected support posts. When the collapsible sports cage is in a non-use lowered position the lower position support braces are braced against the ground. Pivotally connected upper support beams are pivotally connected between the pivotally connected support posts. Also, horizontal overhead support beams are rigidly connected between the pivotally connected support posts. A ball retention net is draped over the collapsible sports cage. When the wench pulls the collapsible sports cage from the non-use lowered position to the in-use upright position, the collapsible sports cage is ready for usage. Likewise, the user may place the sports cage in a non-use position by using the wench to lower the collapsible sports cage from an in-use upright position to a non-use lowered position.
