Wrist Support With Rotating Hand Grip
A wrist support device that includes a palm grip protection strap pivotably attached to a wrist support strap. The palm grip protection strap pivots between a first position in which it is generally perpendicular to the wrist support strap and provides palm protection and a second position in which it is generally parallel to the wrist support strap and out of the user's way. The device includes a fastening system for securing the palm grip protection strap in the second position.
BAG TOSS GAME BOARD WITH SCORE TRACKING
A game board for playing a bag toss game and methods for playing and scoring the same are provided. A playing surface includes a hole located at a distal half of the playing surface sized to receive a bag. A leg is attached to a distal half of the game board for orienting the playing surface at a non-zero angle relative to a ground surface. Attachment mechanisms are spaced apart along a side surface which extends downward from the playing surface or an underside of the playing surface. The attachment mechanisms removably receive, and temporarily secure, a scoring indicator, a first portion of which extends in a first direction away from the side surface and a second portion of which extends in a second direction towards an upper side of the playing surface when the scoring indicator is attached to one of the attachment mechanisms.
Magnetic weight selector
A weight plate for use in a weight stack of an exercise machine includes a locking member moveably attached to the weight plate between an interlocked position and an unlocked position. The weight plate further includes an interlocking magnet attached to the weight plate to retain the locking member in the interlocked position and an unlocking magnet attached to the weight plate to retain the locking member in the unlocked position.
Indoor bicycle training device
An indoor, stationary, bicycle training device that provides advantages over conventional designs of exercise bicycles is provided. The stationary bicycle may include a tilting/pivoting mechanism to orient the indoor bicycle to simulate descending or climbing. The indoor bicycle may include flexible and resilient frame elements to support the indoor training device to move side-to-side under some riding situations thereby simulating the side-to-side swaying motion of an outdoor bicycle under the same riding situations. The indoor bicycle may include several combinations of frame adjustments to provide configurable dimensions of the indoor bicycle to adjust the frame to properly fit the rider, which may be adjusted based on corresponding dimensions of a user's outdoor bicycle. Still other aspects of the stationary bicycle device may aid in creating an “outdoor” feeling while using the device.
GOLF CLUB HEAD HAVING A MAGNETIC ADJUSTABLE WEIGHTING SYSTEM
A golf club head includes a club body having a crown opposite a sole, a toe end opposite a heel end, a back end, and a hosel. A first magnet is coupled to the club body. A second magnet selectively engages the first magnet, such that in a first configuration the first and second magnets attract, and in a second configuration the first and second magnets do not attract, wherein the second magnet is configured to rotate relative to the first magnet between the first configuration and the second configuration.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PORTABLE BALL GAME
A method and apparatus facilitating a portable game including a housing for receiving all parts of the game which housing and parts can be expeditiously assembled to form goals for playing a game on land or in the water. The housing comprises a cylinder, such as a bucket, cut in half vertically, being separable and re-connectable. Each half of the housing can include a hole to be used as a scoring goal. A modular extension pole supports each half of the housing. The game is preferably played with a ball and a first and second scoring goals. The method facilitates playing in water, grass/dirt/ground, and as a team sport.
ERGONOMIC HELD WEIGHT UNIT AND METHOD OF USE
Hand held weight units of light weight manufactured as a solid unit, a shell unit with core insert combinations or modular units with interlocking ends. Shell units with core inserts and modular interlocking units allow for the changing of held weight by inserting or removing inserts or by locking or unlocking of modular weight unit sets creating varying held weight. The weight units are primarily used with upper body exercises during aerobic exercises in the home, outdoors, or in a gym setting such as walking or running to vary the intensity of workout during use.

Multi-configuration upgradable fitness device
The present invention is new in the art as a multi-configuration upgradable fitness device, which can be configured with none, one or more handle(s) attached around a 0-degree to 360-degree rotational position about a central axis as a best mode and configured for operation into (5) fitness devices not limited to; 1) an exercise ball (no handles), 2) kettle bell (1 handle), 3) medicine ball (2 handles opposite), 4) kettle bell-2 (2 handles near each other) and 5) dumbbell (1 handle to a side), and can be upgraded from 2.5 pounds of weights to 10 pounds and up to 50 pounds in increments of 2.5 pounds from (1) to (20) weights to enable 100 or more configurations of fitness equipment as a best mode that enables over one-hundred fitness exercises with this single device as detailed in the entire disclosure.
LIGHT-EMITTING GOLF BALL USING SMALL GENERATOR
A light-emitting golf ball using a small generator includes a core that is a center point of the golf ball; an inner shell formed to surround the core; an outer shell formed to surround an outer surface of the inner shell and struck by a golf club; a generator positioned on one side of the inner shell and generating a current based on a rotational force caused by a stroke; and a light emitting portion located on one side of the inner shell and providing light so that the golf ball emits light based on the generated current. According to the present disclosure, the golf ball emits light, and thus it is easy to track a trajectory of the golf ball. In addition, it is possible to more easily determine the trajectory and position of the golf ball when the day is cloudy or enters the night.
