A pole vault swing-up rack includes a frame body with upper hooks and a lower push bracket. The rack is designed to hang vertically from a horizontal bar—as a pull-up bar—by the hooks. An athlete hanging from the pull-up bar in an upright vertical position may kick his/her legs and torso up to an inverted vertical position to simulate movement of a pole vault. The athlete's shoulders rest against vertical uprights of the rack to maintain the athlete's shoulders and body in front of a vertical plane as in a pole vault movement. A trainer can use the lower push bracket to assist the athlete in the kicking motion. The parts of the rack that come into contact with the athlete may be covered in foam padding and a rubber coating.

A muscular training apparatus to present muscular training accessories. The muscular training apparatus has a bottom part including a central panel and two lateral panels on each side of the central panel. The two lateral panels are installed free to pivot about the central panel. The apparatus can be converted between at least one working position and one storage position. In a working position, the lateral panels are unfolded at the sides of the central panel to form a self-supporting structure. In the storage position, the lateral panels are folded adjacent to the central panel. The bottom part further includes a locking element to secure the self-supporting structure in the working position of the apparatus.

A multi-layered composite for performing cardiovascular/pulmonary training comprising a first core layer, the upper surface of which is adapted for frictional contact with a body part of a user of the composite and a lower surface affixed to a second layer adapted for frictional contact with a floor of a venue occupied by the user, and a kit and method of performing cardiovascular/pulmonary conditioning.

Provided herein are exemplary embodiments including a fitness training unit that includes a large bench pad, the large bench pad having a proximal end and the large bench pad having a distal end, a small bench pad having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end of the small bench pad connected to the distal end of the large bench pad, a frame support for the large bench pad and the small bench pad, a distal end of the frame connected between two vertical support bars, wherein an angle formed between the proximal end of the small bench pad and the distal end of the large bench pad is approximately ten degrees.

A folding exercise rack, particularly a squat rack, is provided. The squat rack is movable between an operating position having a width and length to a storage position having a substantially reduced width and length. This allows for the squat rack to be set up in the operating position temporarily which allows for a user to remove the squat rack from a space after their exercise session and thus does not require that a user have a dedicated semi-permanent space for their squat rack. The reduction in width and length also allows for the squat rack to be easily stored, for example, in a closet, without taking up a large volume of space and with a relatively small footprint compared to the operating footprint. It also allows for the relatively easy transport of the squat rack from one location to another, for example, while traveling as complete disassembly is not necessary to achieve this reduction in the length and width directions.

A squat rack mountable dip exercising system includes a frame that is removably positionable on and extended between a first guard and a second guard wherein the first and second guards are engaged with and extend forwardly from a squat rack. A grip is attached to the frame and is configured to be graspable by a person performing a dip exercise.

A mobile-exercise trailer includes a platform having at least one exercise equipment arranged thereon. Two sidewalls each have a first end joined to the platform, and at least one of the two sidewalls has a window. A first door is arranged to cover the window in at least one sidewall. A roof is attached to a second end of each of the two sidewalls, and a first power rack is retractably extendable from one of the two side walls. Attachment strips may be arranged on one of the two sidewalls. At least one of dip bars, wall ball targets, a punching bag, and a virtual weight pulley machine can be connected to the attachment strips. Video monitors are arranged on at least one of the two sidewalls. Two wheels are axially arranged below a portion of the two sidewalls, and a manual and/or remote controlled trailer dolly extends from a front of the mobile-exercise trailer.

Apparatuses, systems, and methods of use are disclosed for enhancing upper body exercise. An apparatus includes a domed hand support section, the domed hand support section having a plurality of recesses configured to receive a palm, thumb, and fingers of a user's hand while the user's hand is held in a naturally curved open-position. The apparatus also includes a surface engagement section secured to an underside of the domed hand support section and configured to engage a supporting surface. When the surface engagement section is deployed on the supporting surface and the palm, thumb, and fingers of the user's hand are placed in the plurality recesses on the domed hand support section, the domed face supports the user's hand in the naturally curved open position while the user exerts force against the domed hand support section and that is at least partially directed toward the supporting surface.

A pair of push up bars has a first supporting stand, a second supporting stand and a handle. The first sleeve of the first supporting stand and the second sleeve of the second supporting stand provide different assembly depths. The handle is the long arm and the short arm of unequal length, which are combined with the first and second supporting stand respectively, so that the handle and the first and second supporting stand can be arbitrarily matched to have different use angles and states to improve the variability of the structure. It is only necessary to replace the first and second supporting stand with each other, which adds the convenience of structural change.

A Pilates spine corrector having a user-adjustable handle assembly that rotates. The handle assembly has a grip bar that is eccentrically positioned such that it is off centered.
