An exercise device includes an adjustable strap to secure the device to a free standing object, such as a piece of furniture having two sections. The strap includes hook fabric portions and a loop fabric portion to adjust to a desired length to fit within the sections of the furniture. The exercise device also includes oval rings to attach to the strap at ends thereof. Each oval ring includes a bar located in its center to engage the strap. The position of the oval rings is secured against the furniture. Attachments for exercising, such as exercise bands, are attached to the oval rings so that a user operates the exercise device as needed, then disassembles the device for storage or to use elsewhere.

An exercise apparatus for use with a bed. The exercise apparatus may be configured with a base and a rod. The base is held in place by a leg of the headboard or a leg of the bed frame. The rod connects to the base and the rod extends through a space between the mattress and the headboard above a top surface of the mattress. At the top of the rod an elastic exercise band or other exercise accessory may be attached.

An exercise device includes a first anchor tube, a first flex tube, a first resistance coupler, and a first stiffener. The first anchor tube is configured to be anchored between two substantially fixed surfaces. The first flex tube is configured to provide resistance against and in response to manual flexing of the first flex tube. The first resistance coupler comprises a resilient material and is configured to attach the first flex tube to the first anchor tube. The first resistance coupler is made from a resilient material that provides resistance against and in response to manual manipulation of the first anchor tube and the first flex tube relative to each other. The first stiffener rod is sized to be inserted within the first flex tube to increase resistance required for manual manipulation.

A portable and kinetic motion resistance upper body invention that can be used for a variety of exercises. This invention combines dial tension adjustment clutch sheaves, a variable linear tract bearing and a one piece resistance shock-cord, together these core components achieve a unique minimal impact work-out. The multi-motion and changeable adjustments for this invention, result in a wide variety of muscular stimulation and therapeutic exercises that are non-existent in the fitness and health industry. The outcome of the mechanism can be customized for a particular sport requirement or physio and other therapeutic restorations, or even for case specific industrial and robotic counter-balancing controls. This invention is can also be used as a lift-assist device.

An apparatus for exercise has a base with first and second ends. A housing is coupled to the base adjacent to the first end. Wheels are coupled to the housing. The wheels are independently rotatable about a first axis. Pedals can be engaged by a user. Each pedal is coupled to and extend from a respective wheel, and facilitate rotation of the wheels. A resistance mechanism can be coupled to the first housing adjacent to the wheels. The resistance mechanism can independently resist rotation of each of the wheels when the pedals are selectively engaged by the user. An actuator can be coupled to the resistance mechanism and can actuate the resistance mechanism. A control system can be coupled to and control the actuator. The control system can independently vary the resistance to each of the wheels, and can independently stop rotation of each of the wheels.

An exercise bay including: an enclosure defining an exercise area; at least one camera directed toward the exercise area for capturing video of a user exercising in the exercise area; and at least one display within the enclosure for displaying content to the user.

A patient support apparatus may include a frame. A control module may be positioned on the frame. A graphical user interface may be in communication with the control module. An exercise apparatus may be coupled to the frame and may be in communication with the control module.

An exercise apparatus that may be used in a bed, primarily for stretching and resistance exercises. The exercise apparatus may be configured with a lower frame and an upper frame. The lower frame is disposed between and connected to a bed frame and a headboard. The upper frame is connected to the lower frame and has exercise equipment attachment couplers.

A bed with an exercise function includes: an upper exercise arm which is embedded in an insertion groove formed in a front surface or peripheral part of the head part, has a horizontal bar and leg parts extending downward from both ends of the horizontal bar, and is rotatable to protrude forward by a rotary support part provided at a lower end of the leg part; and a rotation stopping part which is coupled to the upper exercise arm and stops rotation of the upper exercise arm in a state in which the upper exercise arm protrudes forward at a predetermined angle.

An exercise machine has a mobile base and an upright support extending upwards from the mobile base. An upper support assembly extends forward from an upper portion of the upright support and an exercise device is suspended from the upper support assembly at a location spaced forward from the upright support. The exercise machine may include a compact and safe counterbalancing gas spring mechanism that tends to move the exercise device away from the exerciser, and that requires a force to be applied to move an exercise device down towards the exerciser. The exercise machine may include an exercise device that is rotatable along a vertical axis, and may be coupled to an adjustable monitor for a wide range of uses. The exercise machine may be used by a exerciser lying supine, sitting in a chair or wheelchair, or standing in front of or adjacent the exercise machine.
