A protective rowing device for compression of the abdomen is provided that comprises a brace and U-shaped support member that may connect to a rowing machine seat and rail.

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.

The present invention discloses a mouthguard. The mouthguard includes an occlusion unit to be bitten by teeth between the maxilla and the mandible of a wearer. A front end of the occlusion unit is connected to a protector for protection. The occlusion unit and the protector are transfixed with an exhalation opening, and the protector is provided with a groove unit to emplace a fixing body. The fixing body is provided with a fan which can rotate relatively on the fixing body, so that the wearer can inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth to breathe, which drives the fan to rotate, thereby increasing the vital capacity.

An exercise assembly structured to perform different rowing routines characterized different rowing motions. A resistance device is movable within a chamber and is cooperatively structured therewith to resist such movement. A drive assembly includes two drive sections each independently connected in driving relation to said resistance device. A connector structure includes two connector members each attached to a handle and connected in driving relation to a different one of said drive sections. The handle is selectively movable through the plurality of different rowing motions, at least one of which results in the two drive sections concurrently driving the resistance member and being concurrently driven by the two connector members. At least one other rowing motion of the handle is defined by each drive section alternately driving the resistance member and being alternately driven by interconnected ones of said connector members.

A rowing machine is disclosed. The rowing machine includes a frame including a base for contact with a support surface and a seat rail supported by the base. The rowing machine includes a seat configured to reciprocate back and forth along the seat rail. The rowing machine includes a rowing engine that includes at least one resistance mechanism rotatably coupled to the frame. The rowing machine includes at least one handle operatively connected to the at least one resistance mechanism, and a paddle linkage assembly operatively connecting the at least one handle to the at least one resistance mechanism such that rearward movement of the handle is resisted by the at least one resistance mechanism.

An exercise apparatus (10) has two wheels (12, 12′) rotatably mounted to a base (14, 14′), spaced apart and each located within a pair of wheel housings (15, 15′), respectively. Pivotably connected to each wheel is a cam (16). Another end of the cam (16) is pivotably connected to a push rod (17) which is pivotably connected to a handle (18) which is rotatably mounted in a housing (20). The pair of handle housings (20) are pivotably and respectively mounted to the pair of cams (16) such that movement of each arm in a vertical plane up or down by operating on the respective handle causes an elliptical rotation of the respective cam relative to the respective wheel (12, 12′).

A treadmill may include a deck, a first pulley incorporated into the deck, a second pulley incorporated into the deck, a tread belt surrounding the first pulley and the second pulley, a motor in mechanical communication with at least one of the first pulley and the second pulley to move the tread belt in a first direction, and a runaway mitigation mechanism in at least indirect mechanical communication with the motor. The runaway mitigation mechanism at least mitigates a motor runaway condition.

An exercise machine has a supporting frame; a resistance fan on the supporting frame, the resistance fan being configured to provide an amount of resistance to a user of the exercise machine; a housing enclosing the resistance fan, the housing having a plurality of openings through which air from the resistance fan is directed towards the user of the exercise machine; and a shroud on the housing. The shroud is movable with respect to the plurality of openings so as to redirect the air from the resistance fan without changing the amount of resistance provided to the user of the exercise machine.

The present application provides a folding rowing machine, including a main frame, a slide rail frame and a fixing assembly, the fixing assembly includes a swing rod, a limit rod, and an elastic member and a pedal member connected to the limit rod, an arc-shaped abutting surface which swings synchronously with the slide rail frame is arranged at a position where the slide rail frame and the main frame are hinged, a usage stop groove and a storage stop groove are recessed and formed on the arc-shaped abutting surface, the usage stop groove or the storage stop groove on the arc-shaped abutting surface is clamped and fixed with the limit rod of the fixing assembly; pedaling on the pedal member drives the limit rod to overcome acting force of the elastic member and swing toward a direction away from the arc-shaped abutting surface.

Aspects provide a punching bag formed by a body panel with a first edge joined at one edge to form a first closed end, and a second edge distal to the first that defines a second opened end of an interior enclosure of the punching bag that is bounded within interior surface sidewalls of the body panel between the first closed end and the second opened end. The first closed end traps air within the interior enclosure that is configured to interact via the second opened end with ambient air within an outer area surrounding the body panel, to thereby slow motion of the punching bag as it is conveyed through the ambient air in response to forces imparted to the bag body panel by a user.
