Disclosed herein is an exercise machine that includes an elongated frame having a head end and a foot end, and a moveable carriage slidably coupled to the elongated frame and moveable between the head end and the foot end, the moveable carriage having a spring bracket coupled to an underside of the moveable carriage. The exercise machine also includes a spring support rod slideably coupled with the elongated frame and disposed adjacent the foot end, and selectively positionable with reference to the foot end by a handle that extends from an interior area of the elongated frame to an exterior area of the elongated frame. The exercise machine also includes at least one resistive member coupled at a first end with the spring support rod and at a second end with the spring bracket, and configured to bias the moveable carriage towards the foot end of the elongated frame.

A rowing exercise assembly includes a pair of elevation units that is each positionable at a selected point between a minimum elevation and a maximum elevation. A rowing machine is coupled between each of the elevation units thereby facilitating the rowing machine to be positionable at a variety of horizontal angles. In this way the elevation units enhance rowing exercises. A pair of cables is coupled to a resistance unit. A pair of handles is respectively coupled to the pair of cables and each of the handles may be gripped for performing the rowing exercises. A control is positioned proximate to the rowing machine and each of the elevation units is electrically coupled to the control. Moreover, the control actuates each of the elevation units to be positioned at the selected point between the minimum and maximum elevations.

A pilates reformer machine has a frame with a longitudinal central extruded spine (2) extending between a first support member (4a, 4b) and a second support member (6a, 6b), a carriage (8) supporting a platform (9) moveable along the spine, at least one retention spring housed within the spine and attached to the carriage, the at least one retention spring being selectively attachable to the frame by buttons (12), the carriage being provided with sides that wrap around sides of the spine and engage with an underneath of the spine, the carriage further including a plurality of wheels receivable within tracks formed within the central spine. A leg exerciser (30) and foot bar (20) may be included in the machine.

An exercise machine with a slidable carriage and accessories providing for a plurality of exerciser positioning surfaces and gripping handles. The exercise machine generally includes one or more lifting handles for raising or lowering either end of the exercise machine with respect to a ground surface. The exercise machine may also include a plurality of wheels each including a ridge adapted to engage with a corresponding groove in a track of the exercise machine. The exercise machine may also include a handle including a pair of arms which are positioned at a distance just greater than a width of the carriage.

A foldable rowing machine comprises a main part, a rowing machine seat, at least one drawing stand, and at least two turning stands. A storage chamber is formed in the main part, and a pedal is hinged to an opening of the storage chamber. A rope winder for winding a rope to a required length is disposed on main part, and a damping adjustment device for realizing a damping adjustment effect by means of magnets and a metal ring is disposed at position of a damper. A whole frame can be folded to be stored, the rope can be wound by a short distance, damping force of the damper can be freely adjusted, and a movable frame for avoiding a high-low clearance is disposed on turning stands to fulfill a shock absorption effect; and various functions are realized, and user experience of the rowing machine can be effectively improved.

A rowing exercise apparatus has a linkage assembly that is provided in two boxes. One box includes a forward frame member, a crank rotatably mounted on the forward frame member, and a forward portion of a seat supporting link operatively connected to the crank. Another box includes a rearward frame member, a rocker link pivotally mounted on the rearward frame member, and a rearward portion of the seat supporting link operatively connected to the rocker link. The linkage assembly is made suitable for use by rigidly connecting the two frame members to one another and by rigidly connecting the two portions of the seat supporting link to one another. At least one bracket is rigidly interconnected between the two portions of the seat supporting link. One such bracket is welded onto a rearward end of the forward portion of the seat supporting link to underlie and directly support a proximate end of the rearward portion of the seat supporting link. A seat is mounted on the seat supporting link for movement through at least one elliptical path as the linkage assembly moves through cycles relative to the rigidly interconnected frame members.

A rowing machine exercise device includes a vertically adjustable rear support base. The vertically adjustable rear support base includes an outer vertical support beam coupled to and extending down from the rowing machine frame, where the outer vertical support beam has a vertical channel extending upward therein from a bottom of the outer vertical support beam and has a latch pin hole extending through a wall of a bottom portion of the vertical support beam; an inner vertical support beam received in a telescoping manner within the outer support beam through the bottom of the outer support beam, where the inner vertical support beam has a plurality of adjustment holes uniformly spaced along a vertical line in an outer wall of the inner vertical support beam.

A fitness exercise apparatus includes a base member, a support unit disposed on the base member, and a slide bar disposed on the support unit. A seat frame includes a connector connected to and slidable along the slide bar, a guide rail connected to the connector, and a foot post connected to the guide rail opposite to the connector. A swing frame is connected to the guide rail at a position corresponding to the foot post. An elastic cord unit includes a plurality of first and second elastic cords connected to the support unit. A pulling unit includes two first cables connectable with the first elastic cords. An operating unit is connectable with the first cables.

A fitness exercise apparatus includes a base member, a support unit disposed on the base member, and a pivot assembly disposed on the support unit. A seat frame includes a guide rail having a front end provided with a pivot connecting member pivotally connected to the pivot assembly. The seat frame is pivotally movable to different angular positions relative to the base member. An elastic cord unit includes a plurality of first and second elastic cords connected to the support unit. A pulling unit includes two first cables connectable with the first elastic cords. An operating unit is connectable with the first cables.

A paddling simulator includes a bar, a cable attached to the bar, a motor operationally coupled to the cable such that the motor can apply a force to the cable, and a controller configured to control the motor to generate a first tension in the cable during a propulsion phase of a paddling stroke and a second tension in the cable during a recovery phase of the paddling stroke.
