A block plate apparatus system, comprising: at least one block plate; a plurality of stackable blocks, wherein the at least block plate is fastened to the plurality of stackable blocks to form a unified stack.

A system and method of using two exercise machines for performing a wide range of exercise movements that utilize both of the exercise machines in concert. The system and method of using two exercise machines generally includes first exercise machine and a second exercise machine which are used in concert to perform a wide range of exercise movements. The first exercise machine may include a track, a carriage movably connected to the track, and an end platform. The second exercise machine may include its own separate track, a carriage movably connected to the track, and an end platform. The exercise machines may be positioned side-to-side in parallel orientation such that an exerciser may perform various exercise moves by positioning different limbs on the respective carriages, end platforms, and/or tracks of the exercise machines, in addition to the surface underlying the exercise machines.

A collapsible and portable dip apparatus may be structurally configured for use with one or more resistance bands for adjusting the intensity of exercises. Specifically, a dip apparatus according to the present teachings may include side structures that are pivotable towards a central support structure to reduce a footprint of the dip apparatus, e.g., for storage. Further, the side structures may include support bars that are structurally configured for engagement with a resistance band, where the support bars are located below gripping bars of the dip apparatus. To this end, the present teachings include an exercise system featuring the aforementioned dip apparatus and resistance bands, where a user can engage a resistance band with each of the side structures of the dip apparatus such that a user can place his/her knees on the resistance band for support when performing a dip exercise.

A pull-up fitness exercise machine with a grip bar hanging frame structure for a hang-up training includes a support board. The support board is automatically lifted upward by a pushing unit for the user to take an expected pull-up exercise. The pushing unit is activated by an electric adjusting element in a mechanism box unit for a proper adjustment of the pushing force. The support board is provided with a hand-operated switch unit and a foot-operated switch unit for cooperating with their corresponding barbed hooks respectively, such that the support board can always be kept at a relatively low position in the case that the foot-operated switch group is not stressed. A hanging frame having a plurality of corresponding hanging bars is positioned on both top ends of the front frame for providing a random hanging of a grip bar with a safety sling.

An exercise apparatus includes a squat rack comprising a number of members forming a cage, a resistance device associated the said squat rack, a cable pull device attached to one of said number of members, and a cable connecting the resistance device to the cable pull device, where the cable extends along one or more of the number of members such that sides of the cage are unobstructed by the cable.

Disclosed herein is a stair climber that includes a frame having a base, an upper axle and a lower axle, and steps revolvably coupled to the upper axle and the lower axle. The stair climber also includes an electric brake mechanism operating in generative mode and coupled with the steps and configured to provide a variable resistive force. Also included is a controller that receives an indication of a selected exercise mode from a user that includes a first speed, a second speed, and a difficulty level. The controller also balances a load, in a learning mode, on the steps based a user's weight at the first speed, and controls, in response to the user applying an additional load to the steps via a rail system, the electric brake mechanism to apply the difficulty level of the selected exercise mode and prevent the steps from exceeding the second speed.

According to an aspect of an embodiment, an adjustable pull-up bar may include a bar, a structural mount, a lever arm, and a control system. The structural mount may be sized and configured to be attached to a stationary object. The lever arm may include a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end may be coupled to the structural mount. The distal end may be sized and configured to support the bar. The control system may be configured to adjust the height of the bar relative to the ground.

An exercise device for allowing multiple exercise movements is provided. The device includes a substantially cube-shaped frame, and a unit for doing exercise movements on at least one side of the frame.

An exerciser allows two new exercises to be performed. The new exercises enabled by the exerciser include a leaning miming in place exercise and 2) a traction in suspension exercise. Two identical rectangle-shaped supports, hinged on two adjacent vertical sides permit a user to grip upper horizontal handle-bars. When not in use, the exerciser can be folded, occupying a very small space.

A retractable wall mounted weightlifting bench system for that is extended outwardly from the wall when in use and retracted towards the wall when not in use. The retractable wall mounted weightlifting bench system generally includes a mounting bracket adapted to be attached to a wall, a bench pivotally connected to the mounting bracket that has an extended position and a retracted position, a first support member pivotally attached to the bench and a second support member pivotally attached to the bench. The first surface of the bench is horizontal or inclined when in the extended position to be used as a weightlifting bench. The first surface of the bench is in a substantially vertical position when in the retracted position for compact storage of the bench near the wall.
