The training resistance value can also comprise a function or a vector, for example a function linking a speed of movement of a user and/or a user contact element and a force applied against said movement. The control device can be a control device for controlling the training machine assembly. The training resistance can comprise an actuator. The actuator can comprise an electric motor. The training resistance can comprise a weight. The training resistance can comprise an element configured to provide a resistance against a movement of the user. The training machine assembly can comprise at least one camera.

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.

An exercise rack enclosure system for providing an exercise rack which is concealable within an enclosure. The exercise rack enclosure system generally includes an enclosure including an interior space. An exercise rack is pivotably connected to the enclosure within the interior space. The exercise rack is adjustable between a collapsed position, in which the exercise rack is completely positioned within the interior space of the enclosure, and an extended position, in which the exercise rack extends out of the interior space of the enclosure for use. The enclosure may optionally include one or more doors for concealing the interior space and exercise rack when not in use. Various attachments may be stored in the enclosure and removably connected to the exercise rack for performing a wide range of exercise moves.

A transformable exercise apparatus is disclosed. The exercise apparatus includes base arms parallel to each other, front legs and rear legs extending from the base arms. The exercise apparatus includes top arms, each connecting respective front and rear leg of each base arm. The exercise apparatus presents telescopic members stored in the front legs. The exercise apparatus includes a first table top and a second table top. The second table top includes collapsible legs. The collapsible legs fold and allow for placing the second table top and the first table top over the top arms, thereby transforming the exercise apparatus into a furniture. The second table top demounts and transforms into a workbench. The telescopic members extend and include a pull-up bar at the top, transforming the exercise apparatus into a pull up exercise apparatus. The apparatus may transfer into a leg press and arm press.

An abdominal exercise device includes a frame comprising top, middle, and bottom frame sections. The middle frame section has a curved shape for creating a teeter-totter movement during exercise. The device includes a headrest connected to the bottom frame section, a plurality of connectors for connecting elastic bands to the frame, and an elastic band connected to at least two connectors. The two ends of the elastic band are connected to two straps. The device creates the teeter-totter movement to exercise the abdominal muscles in response to a person lying down in supine position with the back of the head on the headrest and the feet in the two straps, the person applying a downward pressure with the feet to the straps to move the headrest from a resting position, and the person removing the downward pressure to allow the headrest to go back to the resting position.

Provided is a squat exercise system and a method for tracking squats performed that includes a bench component which functions as a landing for a user and a remote control system that controls operations performed by the squat exercise system and includes a remote control unit operating the squat exercise system, and a housing removably attached to an underside of the bench component that includes a power supply unit supplying power, a sensing device which senses a body part of the user when within a predetermined distance from the bench component and generates a signal, a processor/control unit that receives and processes the signal by the sensing device in communication therewith, and automatically tracks, in real-time a count of each successful squat completed and a total count thereof, and a notification unit in communication with the processing/control unit that generates a notification signal indicative of successful completion of a squat.

An exercise machine is used to train the low back core musculature and lumbopelvic complex. The exercise machine can also be used to provide stability to the lumbar spinal column. The exercise machine includes a stationary bench substantially parallel to the floor and a rotating bench that is capable of rotating at an angle α about an axis, wherein the axis is located between the stationary bench and the rotating bench. A resistance means is used to adjust the amount of force required to move a resistance bar away from the rotating bench, while performing at least one of: a plank, a side plank, a bird-dog, a superman, a lumbar extension, a glute bridge, a single leg raise, a dual-leg raise, a bent leg raise, or a resisted push-up.

An exercising assisting and support assembly includes a body having a bottom surface, a top surface, a first lateral side, a second lateral side, a first end and a second end. The body is elongated from the first end to the second end and a cross-section of the body has a trapezoidal shape. The body has a length from the first end to the second end is between 24.0 inches and 48.0 inches and a height from the bottom surface to the top surface being at least 12.0 inches and less than 16.0 inches. The bottom surface has a width from the first lateral side to the second lateral side between 16.0 inches and 20.0 inches and the top surface has a width from the first lateral side to the second lateral side at least equal to 4.0 inches and no greater than 10.0 inches.

The Pop-up Bench Surfing Trainer will be a durable bench that will last a lifetime. It will aid in developing muscle and ability for popping up on a surfboard after paddling into a wave. The popup surface of the bench will be 97″ by 24″. The angles of the bench will range from 0° to 40° for different levels of skill development. The higher the angle the harder it will be to popup and stay on the bench. Ankle wraps will be suggested while popping up on the bench. Cross training shoes will also be recommended while popping up on the bench.

Disclosed herein is a barbell safety device. The device mounts in pairs over the spaced stop collars of a barbell. The device is generally ‘T’ shaped and is used in an inverted ‘T’ orientation. The device comprises a stop collar receiver configured to house a portion of a loadable sleeve of a barbell as well as the stop collar of the barbell. A central support assembly extends from the stop collar receiver to an elongate base support. The central support assembly in preferred forms is telescoping and can be fixed by pins or other means at a variety of lengths to accommodate to the needs of the user. When the barbell is lowered during exercise, the base support will engage the ground and prevent further lowering of the barbell thereby protecting the user from injury.
