RESISTIVE THERAPEUTIC WRIST DYNAMOMETER AND EXERCISER DEVICE
A resistive therapeutic device is disclosed such that upon a user applying torque a controller emits a signal to an electromagnetic resistance generating member. The controller detects a maximum torque applied by a user detects if the maximum torque applied by a user is less than or equal to a resistance setting. The torque resistance is variable from a neutral position to a maximum position, and the controller increases the resistance setting as a user moves a torque application member in a direction away from the neutral position that represents an increase in torque applied by the user. A control and user interface for a resistive therapeutic device includes an evaluation display of torque strength applied and displays an angle of rotation clockwise or counterclockwise directions ranging from 0 degrees to 360 degrees and a count of repetitive times a user has rotated at least 360 degrees in either direction.

EXERCISE DEVICE
In general, an exercise device includes a handle having a first end and a second end. A curved member is coupled to the first end of the handle. A movable member is coupled to the curved member, with the movable member configured to travel along a length of the curved member, where the movable member has a first portion and a second portion, and the second portion is configured to move relative to the first portion. An elongate member has a first end and a second end, and the first end of the elongate member is coupled to the second portion of the movable member. A weight is coupled to the second end of the elongate member.

TRAINING APPARATUS
A training apparatus for training a user's grip and strength. A rod element is disposed through a female tube that is disposed at a first end of the rod. The rod extends through a male tube that is inserted into at least a portion of the female tube. A grommet is disposed on the rod, inside the female tube, and abutting the male tube. A fastening means couple to the first end of the rod, mitigating movement of the grommet toward the first end. A tensioner is rotatably attached to a second end of the rod, wherein when the tensioner is rotated clockwise it presses the male tube forward against the grommet, which is compressed between the male tube and fastening means, expanding inside the female tube. The grommet pressing against the inside of the female tube provides a desired resistance for a user rotating an attached training member.
FLEXIBLE EXERCISE AND REHABILITATION BAR
An exercise and rehabilitation bar including a flexing bar, at least one resistance insert, and at least one handle, The flexing bar has a first end, a second end, and a cavity running from the first end to the second end. The at least one resistance insert is removably carried within the cavity of the flexing bar and the at least one handle is removably securable to either the first or second end of the flexing bar,
Arcuate motion apparatus and method
A training or exercise apparatus may have a base and an adjacent movable armature or frame that carries a riding member, or shuttle, or carrier. The carrier has an engagement interface with an element of sporting or exercise equipment. The sporting or exercise equipment is engaged by the user, typically by being grasped. The apparatus defines a physical or virtual schedule describing an arc for a swing in the particular activity. The apparatus may include a manual or electronic means of imposing resistance to the motion. This resistance may be adjustable, and may be programmable as a function of one or both of position and speed. The apparatus may include an array of sensors such as may be used to determine the pre-existing stroke, and such as may be monitored during training to assess progress. The apparatus may be operated passively, or it may be operated interactively in a manner in which real-time feedback causes the apparatus to adjust resistance to the motion.
Free weight with ridged grip
A free weight which has a ridge on the top of the weight for a user to grip is provided. The ridge may at least partially surround the top end and/or bottom end of the free weight. In certain embodiments, the ridge may completely surround the top end and/or bottom end of free weight. The user may grasp the weight by wrapping their fingertips around the ridge and perform reps to strengthen the grip and arms of the user.
WRIST EXERCISER AND ROTATION MECHANISM THEREOF
A rotation mechanism of a wrist exerciser is provided. The rotation mechanism includes a sleeve ring, a spinning mass, and a driving assembly. The sleeve ring is rotatable along an annular groove. The sleeve ring includes an annular body and a mount component. The annular body has a first mount portion and a first insertion hole respectively located at two opposite sides of the annular body. The mount component has a second mount portion and a second insertion hole. The second mount portion of the mount component is engaged with the first mount portion. Two shaft portions of the spinning mass are respectively and rotatably located in the first insertion hole and the second insertion hole, allowing the spinning mass to be rotatable. The driving assembly includes a stator fixed to the mount component and a rotor mounted on the spinning mass.
