A two-way reciprocating structure includes a body, a rotational axis assembly, a flexible element and a reciprocating member. The rotational axis assembly is disposed on the body. The flexible element has a first flexible end and a second flexible end, the first flexible end is connected to the rotational axis assembly. The rotational axis assembly is rotated by a force along a rotating direction to wind the flexible element around the rotational axis assembly, and the rotating direction is a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction. The reciprocating member has a first reciprocating end and a second reciprocating end. The first reciprocating end is disposed on the body, and the second reciprocating end is connected to the second flexible end and is simultaneously displaced with the second flexible end, wherein the rotational axis assembly is restored via a restoring fore relative to the force provided by the reciprocating member.

A person support apparatus includes a support surface having a patient facing surface and includes a head section, a seat section, and a foot section, the head section and the foot section being rotatable with respect to the seat section. One or more actuators are provided to rotate the head section and the foot section with respect to the seat section. At least one strain gauge is provided proximate the patient facing surface of the support surface to detect a change in pressure against at least one of the head section and the foot section. A controller is configured to transmit a signal to one or more of the actuators to rotate a corresponding one of the head section or the foot section in response to receiving data from the at least one strain gauge indicating a change in pressure that exceeds a predetermined reduction in pressure.

An exercise device that is specifically configured for use by persons having diabetic neuropathy or other foot pain issues is described. The exercise device comprises footrests for the left and right feet of the user that elevate the feet and support them in the ankle region to assist in the performance of exercises that may otherwise be too painful for the user to perform.

A multifunctional abdominal exercise wheel with a pulling rope includes a first wheel assembly. The first wheel assembly includes a first main support, a first main wheel, a chassis cap and a first sucking disc. An end of the first main support is detachably connected to the first main wheel. The chassis cap is connected to the first main wheel by a bearing. The first sucking disc is connected to the chassis cap by a sucking disc support, and a sucking disc spring is arranged between the sucking disc support and the chassis cap. Another end of the first main support is disposed with a first beam, and the first beam is perpendicularly connected to the first main support. The multifunctional abdominal exercise wheel may have advantages of reasonable structure, multiple functions, high utilization, easy to carry, and being capable of meeting various occasions for fitness at any time.

An abdominal exercise equipment comprises a rest pad, a foot grip, a frame, and three contact arms. The rest pad is disposed in a horizontal direction and the foot grip slides up and down perpendicular to the rest pad. A frame moves at an oblique angle to the rest pad and three contact arms are slidably coupled with the frame and provide targets for a user to contact using his/her hands.

An exercise machine with multiple contact surfaces for providing secondary exercise support platforms positioned at various planes relative to the horizontal plane of the primary exercising platforms, the secondary platforms further serving as handles used during the performance of exercises. The exercise machine with multiple contact surfaces generally includes a frame, a carriage movably attached to the rail, and a first support structure and a second support structure attached to the frame near the first end. The support structures each include one or more platforms having an upper surface that is positioned above the base plane of the carriage.

The device for lower extremity muscle force measurement in isokinetic movement conditions consists of a supporting surface (3) for knees, angular position sensor (4) equipped with an arm (5), stand with dynamometers (2) and a control unit equipped with an imaging device and containing firmware to measure, record and evaluate data from the angular position sensor (4) and dynamometers (2) connected to it. Procedure for the measurement carried out on the device is defined by the forward angular motion of the measured person kneeling on the supporting surface (3), thus producing pressure on the arm (5) that is pushed in the direction and speed of the measured person's motion, wherein the control unit (6) evaluates the change in angular position of the arm (5) and indicates the current and required speed of change in angular position on the imaging device to maintain the isokinetic movement.

A storable exercise bench is provided. The exercise bench may include a frame including at least one beam operatively coupled to first and second floor supports and a member operatively coupled with the at least one beam. The exercise bench may be positioned into an operating position in which the first and second floor supports support the at least one beam and the member, and the at least one beam runs generally horizontally in reference to a support surface. The exercise bench may be positioned into a storage position in which the second floor support and the member support the at least one beam and the first floor support, and the at least one beam runs generally vertically in reference to the support surface.

Provided is a multiple exercise machine arrangement that, according to its characteristics, allows an exercise machine to be created in its own specific portable and mechanical type structure, based on the concept of individualized physical conditioning through a two-part base, bottom supports, intermediary elastics, top two-part bar and top wheel, in order to enable complete optimization in routine procedures practiced through individualized physical conditioning through high versatility in the range of exercises that can be practiced, combined with high strength and mobility of the set as a whole and, based on exercises with great resistance, safety and versatility.

An exercise system includes a portable case that has a base with a selectively openable top and at least one peripheral edge. The top when engaged with the base defines an internal storage volume therein. At least one resistance band is adapted for storing in the internal storage volume of the case and has a plurality of apertures therethrough. At least one anchor is fixed with the at least one peripheral edge of the case and is adapted for fixing with the at least one resistance band through one of the apertures thereof. Preferably each anchor is selectively detachable from an anchor aperture traversing the case. As such, with the at least one resistance band fixed with the case, and with the case pressed against the item within the environment by the person, the person may perform exercises by stretching the at least one resistance band.
