According to one example, an exercise system includes a vertical housing, a first weighted touchpoint coupled to the vertical housing and configured to allow a user to exercise one or more muscles on a first side of the user, a first weight system coupled to the first weighted touchpoint, a second weighted touchpoint coupled to the vertical housing and configured to allow the user to exercise one or more muscles on a second side of the user, and a second weight system coupled to the second weighted touchpoint. The exercise system further includes a control system configured to cause the first weight system to automatically provide a first heavier weight to the first weighted touchpoint for a first exercise and further cause the second weight system to automatically provide a second lighter weight to the second weighted touchpoint for the first exercise.

Methods and systems are presented in which one or more heavy-duty straps are positioned in contact with a top and bottom of a door and engaged with a heavy mechanism exerting a static tension greater than 10 newtons. A user can exercise using removable extenders attached to any of several loops at various vertical positions, creating enormous leverage along the strap(s). Supplemental cushioning may be utilized to minimize damage from large kinetic energy imbued upon components of the methods and systems during or after exercise.

A seated exercise system is provided having a pair of sliders devices, each slider device including a body portion having a continuous side wall and a support surface. The support surface is sized and shaped to receive a foot of a user. A floor portion configured to slide on a floor surface during operation is provided. A grip portion is attached to the support surface, wherein the grip portion is constructed from a traction material providing traction to the foot during operation. Motion tracking components configured to detect movement data of the foot and during operation are provided. At least one slider of the pair of floor sliders is configured to communicate the detected movement data to the other slider; and, wherein at least one slider of the pair of floor sliders includes a wireless communication device configured to send the detected movement data a computerized device such that the detected movement data is available to the user.

An exercise machine support system for providing increased versatility including inclination or declination of an exercise surface, a reduction in the overall length and width of the exercise machine, and an enhanced user interface which reduces the risk of injury. The exercise machine support system generally includes a cantilevered exercise machine which is adapted to have a variable angle of incline or decline with respect to a horizontal ground surface. The exercise machine will generally include a base and a support which extends between the base and the exercise machine. The upper end of the support is connected to the exercise machine by a first pivot such that the exercise machine pivots about the support. An adjustment device may be utilized to pivot the exercise machine and thus adjust its angle of incline. Various types of adjustment devices are disclosed, including an actuator, ratchet-and-pawl, gears, and cam.

An exercise system that may be rail-less, frameless, and/or portable is described. The exercise system includes a carriage having a plurality of wheels and a stationary platform. The stationary platform is independent of and separate from the carriage, and the stationary platform is freestanding. At least one tension member having a first end is attached to the carriage and a second end is detachably attached to the platform such that the carriage is movable on a horizontal plane parallel to a ground surface while the stationary platform remains in a fixed position.

The present invention relates an exercising system. The exercising system is a geodesic dome structure coupled with an exercise device such as a flywheel. The geodesic dome is made up of multiple struts coupled to each other at multiple hubs. The exercise device is engaged with the hub to allow a user to exercise through the flywheel.

An exercise apparatus is provided that allows the user to assist the force applied with one arm or leg by exerting force from another appendage, without the use of complex mechanical linkages. The apparatus may also be reconfigured to accommodate the user in a wide variety of positions.

When a body in movement is weak and out of alignment it is prone to more injury, and such injury usually takes place in the overextension of muscles and joints, particularly manifesting in the spine during bending and lifting. This translates into a decrease that affects performance, efficiency, strength, stamina and endurance. The present invention provides a solution by encapsulating the body in an elastic resistance fully flexible support that provides structure to muscles and joints, reducing over extension and harnessing collective muscular cooperations to help all the muscles work together. The elastic resistance harness includes at least one thigh pad, an elastic tube to provide resistance, a series of buttons and locking mechanism through which the elastic tube can be threaded to connect the thigh pads, and in some embodiments, an upper body harness to apply resistance to the upper body, which can further be connected to the at least one thigh pad using the elastic tube.

A wearable exercise device with adjustable resistance adjustment controls includes a strap having a first fastener on a first end and a second mating fastener on a second end, wherein the strap is configured to removably secure around a user's waist. A housing connected to the strap, which includes a pair of internal spools each operably connected to a spring-loaded resistance mechanism. A cable is affixed at one end to each internal spool. The cables extend outwardly from opposing sides of the housing through a pair of cable openings. A handle is connected to an opposing end of each cable. A pair of resistance adjustment controls disposed on the housing are operably connected to each spring-loaded resistance mechanism. The user can wear the waist strap and grasp the handles to perform arm exercises. The resistance adjustment controls allow the user to independently adjust the resistance of each cable.

According to one example, an exercise system includes a vertical housing, a first weight system coupled to a first upper weighted touchpoint, a second weight system coupled to a second upper weighted touchpoint, a third weight system coupled to a first lower weighted touchpoint, and a fourth weight system coupled to a second lower weighted touchpoint. The exercise system further includes a control system that is configured to cause the first weight system to provide weight to the first upper weighted touchpoint independent of each of the second, third, and fourth weight systems, and cause the third weight system to provide weight to the first lower weighted touchpoint independent of each of the first, second, and fourth weight systems. The first upper weighted touchpoint and the first lower weighted touchpoint may allow the user to exercise the first arm and the first leg of the user simultaneously.
