A cross country skiing exercise machine is disclosed. The machine has ski members slidingly mounted to a base frame and front and rear arm exercise units mounted towards the front and rear of the base frame, respectively. The front arm exercise unit has a front pair of flexible lines to be gripped by a user's hands to permit the user to reciprocally pull back on said front pair of flexible lines. The rear arm exercise unit has a rear pair of flexible lines having straps configured to be attached to the user's arms to permit the user to reciprocally pull forward on the rear pair of flexible lines. The front and rear arm exercise units are configured to apply a drag force to the front and rear pair of flexible lines, respectively. A rear leg exercise unit having flexible lines for mounting to the user's legs is also provided.

Disclosed is a rehabilitation training apparatus. The rehabilitation training apparatus includes a pair of first tracks formed parallel to each other along first axis, a second track disposed on the pair of first tracks, and moving along the first axis, and formed along second axis, a hand holder disposed on the second track, and moving along the second track, and on which at least one of hand and arm of a user is held, a stopper for a track disposed on the pair of first tracks for limiting a movement range of the second track, and a stopper for a holder disposed on the second track for limiting a movement range of the second pair of first tracks, wherein the first axis and the second axis are disposed with an inclination.

A bimanual arm trainer that provides therapeutic bimanual repetitive exercise to improve upper body movement and flexibility has a top support that is elevated relative to a ground surface. The trainer further includes: (a) first and second arm holders that are pivotable relative to the top support; and (b) first and second arm holder housings that are pivotably coupled to the top support and can be moved into a plurality of different positions and locked in place in one of the plurality of different positions relative to the top support. The first arm holder is pivotably coupled to the first arm holder and the second arm holder is pivotably coupled to the second arm holder. A reciprocating translation mechanism operatively connects the first and second arm holders such that the motion of one of the first and second arm holders is mirrored in the other of the first and second arm holders.

A workout system is provided that includes a piece of furniture having at least a backrest and a seat. A chair workout machine is provided coupled to the piece of furniture. The chair workout machine includes a support frame coupled to at least one structure of the piece of furniture. At least one rotatable arm is rotatably attached to the support frame. One or more resistance elements are coupled to the at least one rotatable arm, where the resistance elements arranged to provide resistance to movement by at least one body part of a user.

A fitness equipment includes two handles each including a gripping part gripped by hands and an elastic member-coupling part to which an end portion of an elastic member configured to extend between the two handles is coupled; and a supporting base provided with a supporting surface provided at a location opposite the gripping part of the handle, and supported on a bottom surface, wherein the handle and supporting base assemblies are used to perform push-up exercises, and the elastic member is coupled between the two handles to perform chest expander exercises.

Strengthening and rehabilitation apparatus and methods of use. A strengthening and rehabilitation apparatus includes a base, a shaft having a distal end portion and a proximal end portion pivotably coupled to the base, a rest structure rotatably coupled to the distal end portion of the shaft. A method of use includes adjusting resistance of a joint within the base to provide a selected degree of resistance for restricting movement of the shaft relative to the base, supporting a first portion of a user's body on the rest structure, and moving the rest structure with the first portion of the user's body supported thereon along an exercise pathway, thereby moving the shaft relative to the base with the selected degree of resistance and rotating the rest structure relative to the shaft as the shaft moves relative to the base.
