An exercise apparatus for performing one or more exercises is described. The exercise includes at least one support structure, one or more elastic bands, and a back support member. The one or more elastic bands is coupled to the at least one support structure at one end of the one or more elastic bands. The back support member is arranged in an inclined position such that a first end of the back support member is detachably coupled to the at least one support structure and a second end of the back support member is supported at a surface positioned at a height lower than a height at which the first end is positioned. The one or more elastic bands are configured to assist a user during one or more exercises, where the back support member configured to support a body of the user.

One of the most common health and fitness problems that modern-day humans face is the “Belly Bulge Syndrome”. This core problem is related to weakness of the abdominal muscle, mainly Rectus Abdominus muscle. The current invention provides a customizable anatomical sacral-ischial apparatus in different embodiments as multiple devices to assist the user to strengthen the abdominal and lower back muscle during exercise and rest. These devices are called HUMAN ABDOMINAL REHABILITATION DEVICES (“HARD”). The use of these devices can improve human health and fitness and contribute to a more active and fulfilling lifestyle.

The present disclosure provides a sit-up motion information management system and detection method based on an Internet of things. The method includes: acquiring detection data of a sensor at present time; determining whether the detection data of the sensors at the present time meet a first counting condition, determining that a sit-up action is correct if yes, and incrementing a flag value by one; acquiring detection data of the sensors at next time; determining whether the detection data of the sensors at the next time meet a second counting condition, determining that a sit-up action is correct if yes, and incrementing a flag value by one; determining whether a flag value is greater than or equal to a preset value to obtain a third determination result; and determining, if the third determination result indicates yes, that one rep of sit-up actions is completed, and recording a number of sit-up reps.

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 device comprising a frame having an outer frame periphery formed of outer longitudinal peripheral members and outer lateral peripheral members, wherein at least two internal handles are formed by at least two internal transverse members extending between the outer longitudinal peripheral members. Preferably there are at least two internal handles which project from the profile of the outer frame and is a centrally positioned aperture suitable for receiving a user's head in use. Preferably the frame is curved along the longitudinal extent. Preferably the frame comprises a deformable coating.

A weight lifting apparatus including a generally rectangular beam and two handles arranged near its ends. Each apparatus is designed to provide a more equal distribution of heavier weight across the length of the apparatus. Apparatuses may be connected to one another through locking mechanisms. A weight lifting system includes a series of weight lifting apparatuses of varying lengths and weights and is designed to gradually increase a minimum-to-maximum amount of weight. The series of apparatus gives the user a compact, functional weight increment (a gradual increase in weight for muscular strengthening), with comfortable management during the increase in weight, which is useful for a range of bodyweight motions; standing, sitting, bending, and/or on the ground. The weight lifting system also includes a base with handles and a series of additional beams that can be secured to the base to add incremental weights.

An exercise machine support system for providing increased versatility including inclination or declination of an exercise surface, a reduction in the overall length and width of the exercise machine, and an enhanced user interface which reduces the risk of injury. The exercise machine support system generally includes a cantilevered exercise machine which is adapted to have a variable angle of incline or decline with respect to a horizontal ground surface. The exercise machine will generally include a base and a support which extends between the base and the exercise machine. The upper end of the support is connected to the exercise machine by a first pivot such that the exercise machine pivots about the support. An adjustment device may be utilized to pivot the exercise machine and thus adjust its angle of incline. Various types of adjustment devices are disclosed, including an actuator, ratchet-and-pawl, gears, and cam.

A universal gym exhibits improved versatility employing a frame supporting a weight stack connected via cable to an exercise attachment point, which further engages a floating pulley with an extension cable. Accessory receiving ports throughout the frame allow placement of the floating pulley virtually anywhere the athlete desires, affording a vast array of exercises employing the weight stack. Free weights, elastic bands, and the weight stack, alone or in combination, can provide a diverse resistance. Decorative panels, optionally mounted with hollow-headed bolts each having an axial recess for receiving and retaining a panel-mounting rivet, can disguise the universal gym when not in use.

A restoring mechanism for providing a restoring force to an exercising device which includes a fixing structure and a wheel is provided. The restoring mechanism includes a restoring set, a driving set and a connecting set. The restoring set includes a fixed portion and a link-up portion. The fixed portion is connected to the fixing structure. The driving set is connected to the link-up portion. The connecting set is selectively coupled to the driving set. When the connecting set is coupled to the driving set, rotation of the wheel causes the driving set to drive the restoring set such that the restoring set is allowed to accumulate energy.

A system, method, and apparatus for providing an abdominal exercise cycling apparatus is provided having a body support apparatus, secured to a base apparatus using fasteners, an adjustable lumbar support pad, secured to the base apparatus using a fastener; an anti-slip component, having a friction textured surface configured to interlock with the lower surface of the base apparatus; a stabilizing member, an adjustable member capable of affixing the frame portion in at least one fixed position when the adjustable member is inserted in an aperture comprising a supporting member, the supporting member, providing load bearing support when in the at least one fixed position; a housing covering, a display, having a user interface capable of displaying real-time readings, set in the housing; a resistance apparatus having a contactless eddy brake unit whereby the resistance apparatus utilizing the contactless eddy brake unit to create progressively increasing resistance as speed increases.
