A workout device includes a base frame, a top cover and a gliding mechanism. The base frame includes a chassis and through holes formed in the chassis. The top cover includes dome structures aligned with the through holes, respectively, when the top cover is assembled to the base frame. The gliding mechanism consists of multi-directional rotating members accommodated in the dome structures and partially protruding from the through holes, respectively, when the top cover is assembled to the base frame. In response to a pressing force exerted onto the cover body, the dome structures are in contact with the multi-directional rotating members so as to cause friction therebetween, and the friction changes with the force exerted onto the cover body.

An exercise management device using a hula hoop having a device for measuring spinning direction and exercise amount includes: an annular body part; a sensor unit including a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, and a gravity sensor; a hula hoop including a control unit including a MICOM for receiving and analyzing a data value detected by the sensor unit to calculate and obtain exercise information, a communication unit having a Bluetooth chip for transmitting the exercise information or the data value, and a power unit for switching on/off the control unit; and a wireless communication device having a dedicated program for receiving the exercise information or the data value transmitted from the communication unit and displaying the exercise information.

An exercise and standing transport unit includes a base, superstructure, motor, wheels, power source, and controller operably connected to carry a user, in a standing posture. From a sitting position on any furniture a user may pullup a standing posture on the base (surrounded by support forward, backward, and on each side) and then move at will along a support surface powered by the motor, and controlled through the controller forward, backward, and pivoting about a vertical axis. A user is thereby free to exercise upper body, lower body, and core, including muscles, bones, and tendons, even through daily living activities, thus maintaining mass and motivation for compliance, and circulation by movement to resist compression sores.

Disclosed is an exercise device having a platform and a roller. The platform has a surface sized and shaped to support a body part of a user and a pair of handles. The roller is coupled to the platform and configured to rotate relative to the platform. The platform is configured to translate in a first direction when the roller rotates in a first direction of rotation and translate in a second direction when the roller rotates in a second direction of rotation.

A multi-functional sliding grip exercise device, specifically but not limited to: sliding grip medial pull-ups, sliding grip lateral pull-ups, lower back extension/sit-up assistance exercise. Exercise device will have rotatable rubber pegs attached to horizontal bars to aid in utility. Horizontal bars supporting hand grips will have apertures on its frame; apertures will take on the form of a T with arms going vertically down to engage device locking system. Horizontal bar with apertures will have tracks on top surface and bottom surface to support guidance of Hand grips. Horizontal bar with apertures will have a resistance element housed within, preferably but not limited to springs; also housed within bar will be spring caps with an protuberance attached that will make contact with Handgrips appendage to engage springs. Handgrips may have indentations to support lower back bar for lower back extension/sit-up assistance exercise. Device may have adjustable resistance.

A sit-up board is provided comprising a non-slip backboard, a heel block on the backboard, and a foot strap in front of the heel block configured to hold a user's feet together and against both the heel block and the backboard during sit-ups.

A multi-axis adjustable exercise machine which is pivotable about both a pitch axis and a roll axis with respect to a base for allowing an exerciser to perform a wide range of exercises on a pitched or rolled exercise machine. The multi-axis adjustable exercise machine generally includes an exercise machine which is adjustable with respect to a base. The exercise machine may be pivoted about a roll axis to adjust the roll angle of the exercise machine or may be pivoted about a pitch axis to adjust the pitch angle of the exercise machine. One or more actuators may be connected between the base and the exercise machine to effectuate the pivoting of the exercise machine about either or both axes with respect to the base.

In one embodiment, an exercise system includes a user interface device sized and configured to fit within a user's hand, the user interface device including a microcontroller configured to control operation of the device, a first sensor configured to sense movements of the device, a second sensor configured to sense forces applied to the device, and a communication device configured to communicate data concerning the sensed movements and forces to a separate device.

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.

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.
