A portable full body exercise device is described. The device can be affixed inside a door jamb from either end to perform a variety of exercises and can also be used to exercise free of a door on a chair, bed, or mat. This versatile device is comprised of a handle at one end, an elastic membrane (middle portion), and a double loop/door attachment end. The design of the device allows the resistance of the elastic membrane to be altered from both ends, allowing more or less resistance to be achieved by altering the elastic membrane's overall length.

A shoulder motion exercise device and method of use having a retainer, a connector, an extender, and a slider. When the user mimics a golf swing, the device aids in the stretching and exercise of at least a shoulder and a portion of the torso.

An exercise system comprises an anchor and at least one extendible tether extending from a mooring on the anchor to a grip end. Each extendible tether is longitudinally movable between an extended configuration and a retracted configuration. At least one sensor alignment arm is movably coupled to the anchor, and a sensor is associated with each sensor alignment arm and extendible tether. The sensor alignment arm carries a first sensor element and the extendible tether carries a second sensor element. Each extendible tether is longitudinally movable relative to its sensor alignment arm and angular movement of the extendible tether relative to the anchor moves the sensor alignment arm to maintain longitudinal alignment between the first sensor element and the second sensor element. The sensor detects movement of the second sensor element past the first sensor element as the extendible tether moves between the extended configuration and the retracted configuration.

A shoulder end range of motion improving device has a linkage, the linkage including a first link member, a second link member supported on the first link member, the second link member configured for being secured to an arm of a patient and being rotatable about a second link axis for rotating the arm of the patient about a shoulder joint of the patient through an arm range of motion, the second link axis being displaceable into a selectable fixed position, the fixed position being maintained during rotation of the second link member, an actuator for rotating the second link member about the second link axis, and a controller controlling the actuator for selectively rotating the second link member about the second link axis through the arm range of motion.

Various hand-held exercise weights are configured to fit comfortably in a person's hand. Some embodiments define a circular loop about a central opening. Some embodiments have first and second segments that change in girth as a function of distance from a juncture defined therebetween. Some of the embodiments have handgrips of different shapes.

A programmable range of motion system has a frame, a range of motion device, a controller, a computer and sensors. The frame has a seat to support a rehab patient. The range of motion device is attached to the frame. The actuator, servo or alternate mechanism selectively rotates the range of motion device through a range of motion for a rehab patient's limb. The controller controls the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism. The computer is connected electronically to the controller. The computer has a software, program or application including a plurality of programmable range of motion movements for exercising the limb. The sensor detects movements of the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism and records data back to the computer. The term actuator as used hereafter includes servo or alternate articulating mechanism.

An exercise apparatus includes a pair of handle elements and a pair of housing elements. Each handle element includes a manually grippable bar and a base portion having a substantially spherical contact surface. Each housing element is substantially hemispherical and has a substantially central window. Each handle element is releasably locatable within a housing element to form a substantially hemispherical handle body in which the contact surface of the handle element is located within the window of the housing element and provides a contact point about which the housing body is rotatable when located on a support surface.
