An exercise system is disclosed that includes a storage apparatus or like item having an interior area, and a reformer pivotably coupled thereto to transition between an in-use position for use as exercise equipment and a stowed position. The reformer includes at least one telescoping rail having a first end and a second end, at least one ground support apparatus configured to support the at least one rail and raise the at least one rail from a ground surface, and a carriage movably engaged with the at least one rail to translate between the first end and the second end of the at least one rail. A variable resistance system is disposed in the storage apparatus, the variable resistance system comprising at least one tension member that imposes tension or resistance on an operator of the carriage.

A treadmill may include two separate left and right belts rotating around two sets of rollers, four legs having an adjustable height via air suspension to customize an inclination of the treadmill, a thermoelectric assembly, a fragrance assembly having a rotating fragrance cartridge to emit various smells toward a user of the treadmill, a display on which exercise programs are played, and an attachment module having a dispensing tray on which treats are dispensed. A handle of the treadmill may have a sensor to sense a height and front-rear position, and a belt divider provided between the left and right belts may have position or proximity sensors to sense a left-right position. An inclination of the treadmill may be automatically adjusted according to positions detected by the sensors, and the fragrance assembly, attachment module, and inclination may be automatically operated in accordance with an exercise program played on the display.

An exercise apparatus is provided. The exercise apparatus includes first and second base assemblies, each having a plurality of riser segments. A first rail is connected to and spans the first and second base assemblies. The first rail has a plurality of horizontal segments interspersed with a plurality of vertical segments. A second rail is spaced apart from the first rail and is connected to and spans the first and second base assemblies. The second rail has a plurality of horizontal segments interspersed with a plurality of vertical segments. The horizontal and vertical segments of the second rail correspond to the horizontal and vertical segments of the first rail. Adjacent horizontal segments of each of the first and second rails are vertically spaced apart.

A hand grip exercise apparatus, comprising: a first half configured with at least one vertical surface, at least one horizontal surface and at least one angled portion; a second half configured with at least one vertical surface, at least one horizontal surface and at least one angled portion; and, a hinge, connecting the first half to the second half at the angled portions of each half.

An exercise machine is disclosed. The exercise machine comprises a pancake motor. The exercise machine comprises a torque controller coupled to the pancake motor. The exercise machine comprises a high resolution encoder coupled to the pancake motor.

A variable resistance exercise device is provided that comprises a pair of arm bands and a handle tube that has a longitudinal interior bore. The tube has first and second ends and includes a solid metal center shaft fitted through the interior bore thereby exposing respective first and second end portions of the shaft at the respective first and second ends of the tube. The first and second band arm of the pair of bands arms are respectively fitted onto the first and second ends of the shaft. In some instances, the device is part of a kit that includes a base having a bottom face, where the bottom face includes a groove, and one or more elastic bands, each such band configured to removably couple the base to the exercise bar by fitting the into the groove of the base and through the first and second arm bands.

A shoulder strengthening apparatus includes a base, a shaft having a distal end portion and a proximal end portion pivotably coupled to the base, a hand rest coupled to the distal end portion of the shaft such that the hand rest is configured to move with the shaft relative to the base, and a resistance mechanism configured to restrict movement of the shaft relative to the base.

An aqua-resistance exercise device includes an elongate member, a strap, fasteners, and one or more fins. The elongate member includes an engagement portion, a shaft extending from the engagement portion, and a handle to be gripped by a user. The fasteners are provided to the engagement portion of the elongate member and an inner side of the strap to releasably attach the strap to the engagement portion of the elongate member. The one or more fins are adapted to be received on the strap, and the fasteners releasably secure the strap to the engagement portion of the elongate member to thereby releasably secure the fins to the elongate member.

An improved kettlebell is provided. More specifically the improved kettlebell may include a frame with a holding portion and a base portion. The improved kettlebell may further include a weighted assembly including a first weighted component and a second weighted component. The weighted assembly may be coupled to the base portion of the frame through a fastener. Through the same fastener, the first weighted component may also be coupled with the second weighted component forming the weighted assembly. The weighted components may be manufactured to a variety of different weights, thus allowing users to adjust the weightlifting difficulty.

A core training apparatus for the golf swing. A semicircular member is coupled with a support member, and a resistance member is connected to one of the coupling points. The resistance member is secured to a fixed point, and the user rotates the apparatus back and forth with the user standing at the center rotational axis of the semicircular member, with the resistance member being guided along the semicircular member. The back-and-forth rotation acts to increase and decrease tension on the resistance member thereby exercising the core of the user.
