The present invention relates to forearm fitness equipment having a first handlebar and a second handlebar which are arranged in a longitudinal direction. The first handlebar includes a twist guide part and a first spiral inclined surface formed on an end surface of one side of the twist guide part. The second handle bar includes a second spiral inclined surface on an end surface, which comes into contact with the first spiral inclined surface. The first and second spiral inclined surfaces extend spirally respective in an opposite rotational direction to each other. A spring is configured to provide an elastic force in a direction in which the first spiral inclined surface and the second spiral inclined surface come into contact with each other.

Apparatus for bi-directional ankle exercise movements has a main frame with a seat and upwardly extending columns at either side to support a “U” shaped sub-frame, mounted so that it pivots about a horizontal axis passing very nearly through the ankles of a seated user and interconnecting linkages simultaneously enforcing ankle inversion, with plantarflexion and then ankle aversion, with dorsiflexion, about perpendicularly intersecting axes, while resisting such movements, so as to provide bidirectional ankle exercises according to a progressive resistance program, thus strengthening the ankle muscle groups for enhanced balance and dynamic stability.

A muscle strengthening system is provided having a functional core endurance training device and a pair of rolling blocks for supporting the functional core endurance training device. Each rolling block in the pair of rolling blocks includes an elongated opening for receiving a wheel of the functional core endurance training device. Additionally, each rolling block in the pair of rolling blocks includes a pair of rollers, a stabilizer and a bumper guard for grounding the surface of the wheels of the functional core endurance training device allowing the wheels to spin with increased intensity. Optionally, an individual may utilize a stationary foot pedestal or a wheeled foot pedestal that provides for both the strengthening of the muscles of the individual while simultaneously stimulating an endurance building effect on the muscular and fascial systems of the body, all of which is achieved with minimal to no impact/pounding on the joints.

An exercise machine having a force transmission assembly rotatable in first and second directions, first and second wheels rotatable in first and second directions, a first directional coupler that couples the force transmission assembly to the first wheel when the force transmission assembly rotates in the first direction, and a second directional coupler that couples the force transmission assembly to the second wheel when the force transmission assembly rotates in the second direction. The first directional coupler allows the force transmission assembly to rotate with respect to the first wheel when the force transmission assembly moves in the second direction, and the second directional coupler allows the force transmission assembly to rotate with respect to the second wheel when the force transmission assembly moves in the first direction. A resistance mechanism may be configured to resist rotation of the first and second wheels independently from each other.

A new side plank exercise device is in the shape of a spherical cap or a cone. The side plank exercise device includes a front end that is circular or oval. The side plank exercise device also includes a rear end tapered from the front end. The rear end is a spherical cap. The front end has a flat or a cavitary surface. The front end also includes two recesses for receiving a left shoe and a right shoe. The two recesses are two inches deep and also uneven in depth. Each recess further incorporates a grip at its bottom. The grip includes protruding lines or spherical caps. The device further includes an edge at the front end that extends outwardly from the front end. The edge includes an attachment point with a crossbar and an attachment cavity receiving the crossbar.

A weight lifting device including a housing having first frame having first vertical channel for accommodating first weight holding means and second frame having second vertical channel for accommodating second weight holding means, wherein first vertical channel and second vertical channel are dimensioned so that first weight holding means and second weight holding means can move up and down, when in use, in first vertical channel and second vertical channel, respectively. The weight lifting device also includes a handle bar pivotably connectable to first weight holding means and to second weight holding means from first end of handle bar and second end of handle bar, respectively. The weight lifting device further includes at least one of: first holding bar, second holding bar, first pivotable arm and second pivotable arm, arranged between pivotably connectable handle bar and first weight holding means and second weight holding means.

Embodiments of a strength training apparatus and related methods are provided. In one embodiment, a strength training apparatus may include a tower, a first arm and a second arm each pivotally coupled with the tower and each being configured to be selectively positionable independent of each other at multiple angles relative to each other, a first pulley coupled to an end of the first arm, a first cable extending through the first arm and the first pulley, a second pulley coupled to an end of the second arm, a second cable extending through the second arm and the second pulley, a magnetic mechanism coupled to the first cable and the second cable and configured to provide multiple levels of resistance to a user pulling on the first cable and/or the second cable, and a control panel located on the tower.

An exercise device including a body engagement portion that can support a user, and a guide track assembly that can rotationally house the body engagement portion. The body engagement portion includes a base surface and a rotation support assembly. The base surface may support the user in a standard plank position. The body engagement portion may allow a user to rotate between a first side plank position, the standard plank position, and a second side plank position relative to a support surface while the guide track assembly remain in contact with the support surface and the body engagement portion support upper body of the user. The body engagement portion may allow a user to statically hold a plank position or rotate between two plank positions at any angle equal to, or between, the first side plank position, the standard plank position, and the second side plank position.

This disclosure addresses an exercise device adapted to enable the user to perform a salmon ladder exercise. The ladder includes a frame with at least one pair of support protrusions that receive an exercise bar. A bearing surface that receives the shaft of a catch array rotatably mounted in the frame. The device further includes a braking mechanism that applies a variable suppression force to the catch array shaft, the variable suppression adjusting the force required to rotate the catch array shaft in the bearing surface.
