A hydraulic resistance exercise apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus has a frame adjustably supporting at least one drum body. One of an arm bar and a leg bar pivotally attached to the at least one drum body. A hydraulic vane cylinder is carried in each the at least one drum body. The hydraulic vane cylinder has one or more hydraulic channels and at least one vane coupled to one of the arm bar and the leg bar, such that operation of one of the arm bar and the leg bar urges a hydraulic fluid contained within the hydraulic vane cylinder under a resistance by passage of the hydraulic fluid through the one or more hydraulic channels.

A pedal of an exerciser contains: a body and a fitting sleeve. The body includes multiple slots parallelly defined on the body, and the body includes a first slide rail and a second slide rail symmetrically formed on two sides of the body. The fitting sleeve includes a connection portion received in the multiple slots, a first rotatable seat and a second rotatable seat symmetrically fixed on two sides of the fitting sleeve. The first rotatable seat has a first receiving orifice, and the second rotatable seat has a second receiving orifice, such that a coupling bolt is inserted through the first receiving orifice of the first rotatable seat, the first slide rail of the body, the second slide rail of the body, and the second receiving orifice of the second rotatable seat. Thereafter, the coupling bolt is locked by two first defining elements and two second defining elements.

An exercise apparatus includes a resistance device including left and right sheaves and associated rewind mechanisms. Left and right cords are routed from the sheaves through left and right swivel pulleys to left and right force receiving members. A person stands on a foot platform and exercises by using her arms and/or her legs to pull the cords from the sheaves. The person may stabilize herself by placing one or both hands on handlebars when those hands are not involved in the pulling activity.

An exercise machine adjustable resistance system and method for efficiently varying the workout resistance for an exercise machine. The exercise machine generally includes a carriage movably positioned with respect to the at least one rail, a plurality of springs selectively connectable to the carriage to provide a resistance level to the carriage, a plurality of electrically actuated mechanical devices adapted to latch a corresponding one of the plurality of springs to the carriage when in the latch state and unlatch a corresponding one of the plurality of springs to the carriage when in the unlatch state and a control unit in communication with the plurality of electrically actuated mechanical devices to selectively control the state of each of the plurality of electrically actuated mechanical devices to be within the latch state or the unlatch state.

An exercise machine resistance adjustment system for providing an exerciser the ability to immediately adjust the resistance force by changing their body position on the movable carriage or end platforms. The exercise machine resistance adjustment system generally includes a frame, a carriage movably positioned on the frame, a spring connected to the carriage to apply a biasing force to the carriage, one or more left projections within the carriage adapted for a left hand of an exerciser to grasp, and one or more right projections within the carriage adapted for a right hand of an exerciser to grasp. The exerciser is able to efficiently adjust the amount of resistance force applied to the carriage by repositioning their hands (or feet) from a first set of projections at a first distance to a second set of projections at a second distance from the first end of the exercise machine.

There is provided a limb exercise device comprising: a force sensor configured to determine a weight applied to the device; a sliding component configured to facilitate the sliding movement of the device along a separate surface, wherein the separate surface is a surface that is separate to the device, wherein the sliding component comprises a part of an external housing of the device; a device movement sensor configured to determine a movement of the device on the separate surface; a limb position sensor configured to determine a position, in at least one dimension, of a limb of a user positioned above or adjacent to the device; and an output device configured to output an indication in dependence on a signal from at least one of: the force sensor, the device movement sensor and the limb position sensor.

An apparatus for exercising the muscles. The apparatus includes an exercising device having a power arm or lever, which can be equipped with actuating elements at a first end of the power arm or lever. A second end of the power arm or lever is arranged on a retaining element in a way pivotable about a pivot axis at a first articulated joint. A compression-spring element can be articulated, by way of a first end of the compression-spring element at a first point of articulation on the power arm and articulated, by way of a second end of the compression-spring element at a second point of articulation on the retaining element. A cable-pull arrangement has a cable and is fixed in a releasable manner in a spatial relationship to the exercising device, independently of the exercising device, by means of a first fixing device and is able to be combined with the power arm of the exercising device by means of a second fixing device, so that the cable-pull arrangement is connectible to the exercising device in order for training to take place.

An ankle exerciser device is described. The device can include a base component, a jointed foot plate assembly attached to the base component, the jointed foot plate assembly comprising a foot plate and a joint, the joint configured to allow the foot plate to tilt, pivot, and/or rotate relative to the base component, and a maze board attached to the foot plate of the jointed foot plate assembly, the maze board comprising a maze. A method of exercising the ankle can include positioning a ball in the maze of the maze board, and moving the ball through the maze by applying forces to the foot plate with a foot.

The present disclosure provides an exercise apparatus with a mobility mat and an orthopedic device. The mobility mat can have a plurality of segments with a plurality of assistive features such as hand holds, foot holds, and a contoured cushion. The mobility mat can be configured to couple with the orthopedic device. The orthopedic device can have an inclined face and a plurality of remaining faces including various additional assistive features.

A radial swing portable squat rack is disclosed. When performing the Bulgarian or single leg squat with conventional methods, the users back (or floating) foot remains stationary or has limited forward and downward movement. This device gives optimal movement for the users back (or floating) leg so as to keep the user in a neutral (or upright) posture throughout the movement (Bulgarian or single leg squat). A pivoting foot support, secured by a frame equipped with structural supports facilitates the movement of the floating leg securely during the squat.
