A hammer with an elongate handle having a longitudinal axis, a proximal end and a distal end; a protrusion mounted at the distal end of the handle having a pin and a notch therethrough oriented along a transverse axis relative to the longitudinal axis and a flexible generally geometrically uniform mass affixed to the handle at the distal end thereof. The mass is molded onto the distal end of the handle whereby at least part of the mass extends through and fully occupies a channel in the handle and cooperates with the pin to secure the mass to the handle.

A weighted exercise apparatus including a substantially cylindrical handle having a back end, a front end, a threaded opening disposed within the front end, a back portion, a front portion attached to the back portion, a lip disposed between the back portion and the front portion, and a gripping member disposed on the back end. At least one rubberized weighted ball has a continuous cylindrical aperture medially disposed through a diameter of the at least one weighted ball. The front portion of the handle is removably disposed through the aperture of the at least one weighted ball. A wing screw having a wingspan greater than a diameter of the aperture of the at least one weighted ball selectively threadably engages the threaded opening of the handle when the front portion of the handle is disposed through the aperture of the at least one weighted ball.

The present application is directed to an athletic training tool. The athletic training tool includes a ball and an elongated member attached thereto, the elongated member is attached to the ball in a manner effective to maintain the center of gravity of the ball. The elongated member may be visually observable during use of the athletic training tool.

The present invention is a connected portable exercise apparatus that allows for weight resistance or weight-bearing exercise. A portable exercise ball-and-stick apparatus, which includes a base having a partial and concave spherical region for accepting therein a ball and with a rod-portion extending from the ball, which may be either linearly- or non-linearly shaped, and preferably with a handle at the end of the rod distal from the ball for gripping the rod with the handle preferably being rotatable relative to the rod. The handle has a sensor in it that allows for the determination of the motion of the rod. The motion of the rod is compared to desired movements in a given exercise, and feedback is given to the user when they go outside of the desired movements for an exercise.

A sports training ball is disclosed that is made up of a shell having an embossed design that defines an enclosure having an interior volume substantially occupied by a filler that includes a mixture of a first material, a second material, and a third material.

A golf training device with audio and visual/touch cues for independent golf swing training in an absence of a golf instructor includes a tube having a first end and a second end and an outer surface. A hand grip is disposed at least in part about the outer surface of the tube. A sliding mass is disposed slidingly within the tube, the sliding mass including a chamfer on at least one end of the sliding mass. A ball holding rod is mechanically coupled to the second end of the tube has a ball hold rod first end and a ball hold rod second end. A ball is mechanically coupled to the second end of the ball holding rod. A club head stem extends into a club head, the club head stem is mechanically coupled to the first end of the tube to rigidly affix the club head to the tube.

A golf training device with audio and visual/touch cues for independent golf swing training in an absence of a golf instructor includes a tube having a first end and a second end and an outer surface. A sliding mass is disposed slidingly within the tube, the sliding mass including a chamfer on at least one end of the sliding mass. An end stop is mechanically affixed to the first end of the tube. A ball holding rod has a ball hold rod first end and a ball hold rod second end. A bushing is disposed on the ball hold rod first end to mechanically couple the ball hold rod first end to the second end of the tube, an outer diameter of the bushing including a male thread corresponding to a female thread disposed in the second end of the tube. A ball is coupled to the ball holding rod.

In general, an exercise device includes a handle having a first end and a second end. A curved member is coupled to the first end of the handle. A movable member is coupled to the curved member, with the movable member configured to travel along a length of the curved member, where the movable member has a first portion and a second portion, and the second portion is configured to move relative to the first portion. An elongate member has a first end and a second end, and the first end of the elongate member is coupled to the second portion of the movable member. A weight is coupled to the second end of the elongate member.

A rotation exercising ball structure includes two shells, two pivot seats, a weight unit, and two handle protecting members. The two shells are combined to construct a hollow ball. Each of the two shells has a space. Each of the two pivot seats is formed on the space and has a through hole. The weight unit includes a mandrel, a rotation member, two bearings, and a weight. The mandrel has two ends each secured in the through hole of one of the two pivot seats. The rotation member has a first end provided with a mounting hole for mounting the two bearings. The weight connects a second end of the rotation member. The rotation member and the weight are rotated on the mandrel. The two handle protecting members are mounted on the two shells.
