The present invention is directed to a system and method for attaching exercise modalities such as elastic tubular resistance bands, elastic flat resistance loops, non-elastic suspension-type exercise systems in a plurality of different positions and orientations as well as other exercise, rehabilitation and stretching components that either require or benefit from a stationary anchor unit.

A stair and slide assembly includes a stair portion including a plurality of stairs, a slide portion including a slide with an entrance and an exit, and an assist bar positioned proximate the exit of the slide to assist a user with pivoting from the exit of the slide to the stair portion. The slide has a first portion extending substantially linearly from the entrance of the slide at an angle and a second portion extending from the first portion to the exit of the slide. The second portion transitions the slide from the angle of the first portion to substantially horizontal. The exit of the slide is configured to be positioned at a target height above a ground surface. The target height is between about 18 inches and about 30 inches.

A multifunctional fitness horizontal bar which relates to the technical field of fitness horizontal bars, comprises: an outer tube, an inner tube telescopically and axially assembled on both ends of the outer tube, a support part provided on the outer side of the inner tube, and a plurality of hanging buckles provided on the outer tube and/or the inner tube, wherein a mounting hole is provided on each of the plurality of hanging buckles. Adopting the above technical solution has the advantage of being convenient to be used in combination with other fitness equipment.

An exercise apparatus configurable in a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration is provided. The exercise apparatus includes: a horizontal upper support structure comprising a pair of vertical sleeves at opposing ends of the upper support structure; first and second inserts receivable in a corresponding one of the vertical sleeves; and first and second leg assemblies coupled to a corresponding one of the first and second inserts. A bottom contact surface of each of the first and second inserts angles upwardly laterally outward, and wherein a top contact surface of each of the first and second leg assemblies is level, whereby when the exercise apparatus is in the expanded position respective top contact surfaces of the first and second leg assemblies abut corresponding bottom contact surfaces of the first and second inserts, whereby the first and second leg assemblies splay laterally outward.

This disclosure addresses an exercise device adapted to enable the user to perform a salmon ladder exercise. The ladder includes a frame with at least one pair of support protrusions that receive an exercise bar. A bearing surface that receives the shaft of a catch array rotatably mounted in the frame. The device further includes a braking mechanism that applies a variable suppression force to the catch array shaft, the variable suppression adjusting the force required to rotate the catch array shaft in the bearing surface.

A modular exercise apparatus includes a pair of vertical frame members secured in spaced-apart relation by two or more internally threaded cross bars the ends of which are fitted with L-shaped mounting brackets that are manually secured by threaded mounting bolts passing through opposing aligned apertures in the frame members and into the threaded ends of the cross bars, the frame members further stabilized by at least one flanged U-shaped supporting member secured to a base member of the frame members by a threaded mounting bolt, enabling the apparatus to be assembled without the use of tools to form a variable, stable configuration that allows one or two users to execute a wide variety of vigorous exercises, and disassembled for compact storage. For solo use, the frame members are reduced in length and weight facilitating ease of movement of the assembled unit, as well as the disposition for storage.

An exercise apparatus for attachment and use within a door frame includes a pair of elongated frame elements with each having apertures configured to receive various types of cross bars. The frame elements are designed to be secured to vertical portions of a door frame without interfering with passing through the doorway or closing the door. A cross bar having a length greater than the door width is configured to be received within corresponding apertures among the frame elements. A cross bar has a retractable spring pin protruding from the bar so that the spring pin may engage a frame element to limit axial excursion of the bar. Two such spring pins may be included in the bar, so that with the frame elements including apertures having pin-receiving pockets, one type of bar may rotate freely while another type of bar is prevented from rotation.

According to a first embodiment of the present application, Applicant discloses an aquatic exercise device for assisting a swimmer to practice swimming in place. The device comprises: a pair of tines, each tine comprising an upper end and a lower end; a fork root attached to the upper ends of the pair of tines; and a suspension element attached to and suspending the fork root. The suspension element suspends the fork root and the upper ends of the tines above water comprising a practice area, the lower ends of the tines are submerged in the water of the practice area, and the pair of tines operative to maintaining a position of the swimmer in the practice area.

A highly functional and portable exercise belt is described herein that can be used to help an exerciser perform pull-up exercises with a fully extended hanging body position for the exerciser. Additionally, the present invention relates to a device that affords body building and weightlifting practitioners lower torso and abdominal region support during weightlifting exercises so as to prevent damage to the kidneys and internal organs, and injury to the lower spinal region.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to an adjustable-incline climbing wall. The climbing wall comprises one or more climbing panels supported by a frame and a system for adjusting the incline of the frame to provide a climbing wall of a desired incline. The incline of the climbing wall may be adjusted by activating an actuator, which extends the upper portion of the frame a distance from a support wall, tilting the climbing wall to a desired incline. When the climbing wall is substantially vertically oriented, the system for adjusting the incline of the climbing wall may extend only a small distance from the support wall so that the adjustable-incline climbing wall has a relatively small footprint. In some embodiments, the climbing wall may also include one or more fitness accessories that can brought to an optimal height for a particular user through adjustment of the climbing wall incline.
