A miniature trampoline includes a frame having at least a pair of spaced apart upper frame members each having an upper front end and an upper rear end, respectively, the upper frame members being inclined toward the upper rear ends, respectively. A trampoline bed includes at least one planar surface and a pair of elongate side edges situated between the upper frame members and extending substantially between the upper rear ends and upper front ends of the pair of upper frame members, respectively. The trampoline includes a plurality of springs, each spring having a spring fastener coupled to a respective upper frame member and a bed fastener coupled to the trampoline bed proximate a side edge thereof, wherein the springs are spaced apart along the respective upper frame members, respectively, such that the trampoline bed is selectively held in tension between the upper frame members, respectively.

Aerobic and strength training percussion apparatus incorporating a specially designed bass drum with internal striking mechanism which is activated by such actions, but not limited to, the user jumping, walking, running, bouncing, dancing, or leaning atop it while simultaneously striking a plurality of smaller drums, mounted vertically on a frame, with specially weighted mallets. Apparatus can be utilized individually or in groups, either as an exercise device or a dedicated percussion instrument. Additionally, the base of the apparatus can be utilized as a percussion instrument, a percussion toy, and, when a multitude are place adjacent to one another, as a musical floor.

The standing step trainer is a device that allows a user to engage in movement that is similar to walking, although less strenuous. The standing step trainer assists users in raising their center of mass after it has been lowered via plantar flexion, ankle flexion, dorsiflexion, and knee flexion. Because users receive an assist in returning to an upright, neutral standing position, they are able to move on the standing step trainer for extended periods of time. This type of movement has been shown to provide myriad health benefits including an increase in the flow of nitric oxide throughout the blood. The methods of the present invention disclose using the standing step trainer to attain these and many other health benefits while working at a desk, watching television, attending class, or any other activity that has heretofore been done from a sitting or standing position.

The present invention relates to a jumping exercise equipment, and more particularly to a jumping exercise equipment including an elastically adjustable leaf spring and a coil spring to compensate for the ballistic force generated by the user's jumping exercise, wherein the present invention can provide a jumping exercise equipment that can compensate for the recoil force generated by the user's jumping exercise by including a recoil force complementary part with an elastic force in the lower part of the leaf spring.

A portable diving board is attachable to a receiver, such as boats, docks and other aquatic structures, through removable clamps. The board portion is attached to a platform box and given resiliency through a spring. Each clamp has a bi-through threaded nut attached to its lower portion, such that vertical and horizontal pressure rods can be rotated by knob to tight and release the clamps from the receiver. Pressure distribution pads at the end of each pressure rod allow for even distribution of pressure, thereby protecting the receiver from damage.
