At least one carriage is configured to support a user, wherein the carriage is slidably supported on the first frame section. A first resistance system has a first resilient member removably connected to at least one of the carriage and/or the frame. The displacement of the carriage relative to the frame exerts a tensile force on the resilient member. A second resistance system includes a load moveably mounted with respect to the frame and an actuation member connected to the load. The actuation member is configured to displace the load when a force exerted by the user on the actuating member exceeds a predetermined threshold representative of the load.

A fitness device is provided, the fitness device comprising: an elastomeric member having an interior cavity, the elastomeric member comprising a cylindrical portion extending between a first hemispherical endcap and a second hemispherical endcap, wherein a surface of the elastomeric member defines an aperture positioned between the interior cavity and an exterior of the elastomeric member; and a structured surface positioned on the surface of the elastomeric member over the aperture, the structured surface extending into the interior cavity of the elastomeric member.

An exercise machine has a two-part hexagonal base. A plurality of supports is attached to the two-part hexagonal base, and a pair of intermediary elastics, each arranged by crossing one side extremity of the two-part hexagonal base from a top extremity of the exercise machine to the bottom face of the opposite extremity of the two-part hexagonal base. A top two-part bar is arranged horizontally between tops of the pair of intermediary elastics. A top cylindrical wheel arranged and centered on the top two-part bar, wherein the two-part hexagonal base having a set of cylindrical openings spaced along an entire length of the two-part hexagonal base, two side openings, two rollers, arranged transversally centered in a one of the two side openings, a bottom hollow arranged along the an entire length of the bottom of the two-part hexagonal base, two pairs of straight bottom bars arranged centered and spaced on and along the entire length of the bottom face of the two-part hexagonal base.

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.

A folding exercise bike has handlebar telescoping members configured to support handlebars, seat telescoping members configured to support a seat, a lower frame member from which the seat telescoping members and the handlebar telescoping members extend, pedals having an attachment point above the lower frame member, a first pair of legs attached to one end of the lower frame member and a second pair of legs attached to another end of the lower frame member. Each leg of the first pair of legs extending at an oblique angle from the lower frame member in a deployed position configured to support the folding exercise bike on a surface and each leg of the second pair of legs extending from lower frame member at an oblique angle in the deployed position.

A four-bar linkage assembly exercise station that can be adjusted to various configurations to create various exercise motions having at least one adjustable operational pivot that is movable prior to operation of the machine and stationary during operation of the machine and at least one stationary adjustment pivot operatively connected to the at least one adjustable operational pivot. The stationary adjustment pivot is also operatively connected to an adjusting and latching component or assembly that can be engaged by a user prior to operation of the machine to adjust the four-bar linkage assembly exercise station to a desired configuration to create a unique exercise motion and secure the desired configuration of the adjustable four-bar linkage assembly.

A supporting device for performing exercises is disclosed. The device comprises of a mounting panel that may be clamped to bottom sides of doors using an adhesive. A support plate may be pivotably connected to the mounting panel using a hinged connector. A locking mechanism for adjusting the angle between the support plate and the mounting panel may be provided. Herein, the locking mechanism may lock the support plate at one or more angles with respect to the mounting panel. A cylindrical support bar may be mounted on the bottom side of the support plate for providing a primary support for a user performing exercise. Further, a rope and pulley mechanism mounted on the top side of the support plate may provide a secondary support for the user performing exercise.

A strength training machine includes a first bracket, a second bracket and a first connection assembly, in which a cavity of a first end of the first bracket and a cavity of a first end of the second bracket are provided with a counterweight mechanism, a bottom of the first end of the first bracket and a bottom of the first end of the second bracket are provided with a first sliding pad or wheels, and at least two foot pads, a side wall of the first end of the first bracket and a side wall of the first end of the second bracket are provided with a second sliding pad or wheels; the first connection assembly includes a connection handle, a second end of the first bracket and a second end of the second bracket are connected through the connection handle.

A resistance training device for hands-free exercising of the back and shoulders includes a frame. A bench is coupled to the frame and is configured to seat a user. A backrest is coupled to the frame proximate to a rear edge of the bench. A pair of arms is pivotally coupled singly to opposing side supports of the frame. A resistor is operationally coupled to the pair of arms. The arms are positioned on the frame such that the arms are configured to abut elbows of the user seated on the bench. The resistor is positioned to resist the user's effort to pivot the arms relative to the frame, thus exercising the back and shoulders of the user without use of the user's hands.

An upper posterior development device is shown and described. The upper posterior development device includes a frame. The frame is created by a plurality of legs. The legs may be secured to one another at a bottom end for additional support. A bench is secured to the upper end of at least one of the plurality of legs. The bench may be rotatably secured to the frame such that the angle of the bench is adjustable. In this instance the bench is secured at least one different leg of the plurality of legs via an adjustment device. A pendulum movably secured to an underside of the bench. The pendulum is configured to have weight added or removed therefrom.
