An apparatus for exercising the muscles. The apparatus includes an exercising device having a power arm or lever, which can be equipped with actuating elements at a first end of the power arm or lever. A second end of the power arm or lever is arranged on a retaining element in a way pivotable about a pivot axis at a first articulated joint. A compression-spring element can be articulated, by way of a first end of the compression-spring element at a first point of articulation on the power arm and articulated, by way of a second end of the compression-spring element at a second point of articulation on the retaining element. A cable-pull arrangement has a cable and is fixed in a releasable manner in a spatial relationship to the exercising device, independently of the exercising device, by means of a first fixing device and is able to be combined with the power arm of the exercising device by means of a second fixing device, so that the cable-pull arrangement is connectible to the exercising device in order for training to take place.

An ankle exerciser device is described. The device can include a base component, a jointed foot plate assembly attached to the base component, the jointed foot plate assembly comprising a foot plate and a joint, the joint configured to allow the foot plate to tilt, pivot, and/or rotate relative to the base component, and a maze board attached to the foot plate of the jointed foot plate assembly, the maze board comprising a maze. A method of exercising the ankle can include positioning a ball in the maze of the maze board, and moving the ball through the maze by applying forces to the foot plate with a foot.

A plank support exercise apparatus and related methods is provided. The plank support exercise apparatus has a frame and at least one arm support pad connected to the frame. A ground-interface surface is positioned along at least a portion of the apparatus.

A radial swing portable squat rack is disclosed. When performing the Bulgarian or single leg squat with conventional methods, the users back (or floating) foot remains stationary or has limited forward and downward movement. This device gives optimal movement for the users back (or floating) leg so as to keep the user in a neutral (or upright) posture throughout the movement (Bulgarian or single leg squat). A pivoting foot support, secured by a frame equipped with structural supports facilitates the movement of the floating leg securely during the squat.

Apparatus and methods relate to a multi-modal rehabilitation device having a reconfigurably lockable, adjustable knee stabilizer and a removable foot plate provided with removable resistance elements. In an illustrative example, the resistance elements may be repositionable. The foot plate may be provided with rollers. The rollers may be configured for use in gliding exercises. The rollers may be configured for self-massage therapy. The rollers may be removable. The rollers may be disposed in a removable leg band which may be disposed around a leg of a user. In an illustrative example, the device further includes a graduated self-deflating thermal-compression device. Various embodiments may provide multiple therapy modalities in an efficient, economical, and user-friendly device.

A virtual reality (VR) system includes a VR display and a VR movement apparatus that includes hand user interfaces (UIs) and foot UIs that can support the hands, feet, seat, and total weight of a user. The VR movement apparatus allow the user's hands and feet to move in 3-dimensional space that include vertical, lateral, and fore-aft direction movements. A computer running VR software coordinate and synchronizes the VR movement apparatus and the VR display to provide system users with simulated activities in a VR environment.

A standing forward bend bench press apparatus is provided. The standing forward bend bench press apparatus having a horizontal support beam containing a first support member fused at a front end and to a midway point of a second support member. A rear vertical ground support fused at a rear end of the first support member and two leading vertical ground supports fused at each end of the second support member. Two angled support beams each containing a vertical support member fused to an angled support member and coupled to the horizontal support beam. Two swing arms each rotatably coupled to the leading vertical ground supports above the second support member and having a handle rotatably affixed to a top of the swing arms via a hinge. Two stops each fused to the rear of the leading vertical ground supports below the swing arms and the leading vertical ground support.

A calf exerciser includes a free standing platform with independent foot braces that pivot and rotate for providing an optimally positioned foot and ankle position for a calf exercise. A pair of rotating platforms mount to a base, and each rotating platform has a pivot brace that angles left and right. Positioning and locking the foot braces at various positions of rotation and right/left angles provide a selectable, varied position as the calf exercises generally involve an ankle driven force against the foot braces, often bearing on the ball or arch of the foot. A beveled or curved edge with a grip surface further enhances contact with the user's foot.

Embodiments herein are directed to an aquatic exercising assembly. The aquatic exercising assembly includes a container having a liquid retention portion. The liquid retention portion includes a bottom wall, a pair of opposing sidewalls, and a pair of opposing end walls, a pedal assembly and a paddle assembly. The pedal assembly is rotatably coupled to the one of the pair of opposing end walls. The paddle assembly is coupled to each one of the pair of opposing sidewalls. The paddle assembly is movable between a rearward position and a forward position in a longitudinal direction. The pedal assembly is rotatably moved by a lower body movement of a user and the paddle assembly is moved by an upper body movement of the user.

The present disclosure provides training systems and apparatus for working out. The training system includes a pivotal bracket and a workout bar. The pivotal bracket includes a first portion and a second portion pivotally coupled to the first portion. The first portion is couplable to a support surface. The workout bar is coupled to the second portion of the pivotal bracket. The workout bar includes a cylindrical weight receiving portion positioned distal relative to the second portion of the pivotal bracket and a rectangular intermediate portion positioned between the second portion of the pivotal bracket and the cylindrical weight receiving portion. The weight bar may include a plurality of pairs of holes spaced apart along a length of the bar for receiving various attachment members for performing landmine workout movements. The training system may include other support structures to which the pivotal bracket is connected.
