A proximal frame end is pivotally attached to the first platform assembly adjacent the pair of first extension legs. The platform support portion is pivotally attached to a distal frame end and enables a user to adjust an angle of inclination of the second platform portion relative to the first platform portion for positioning the user between the first and second platform portions for variously exercising muscle groups.

An exercise device that is specifically configured for use by persons having diabetic neuropathy or other foot pain issues is described. The exercise device comprises footrests for the left and right feet of the user that elevate the feet and support them in the ankle region to assist in the performance of exercises that may otherwise be too painful for the user to perform.

Coupling device (20) for a vertical pole (8) for gym exercises comprising a hemispherical element (3) positioned inside a seat (22), a base (1), a shaft (5) inserted inside the hemispherical element (3) to which the vertical pole (8) for gym exercises is connected, said device (20) being characterized in that the hemispherical element (3) comprises a plurality of blocking elements (10, 33, 45) configured to be coupled to a plurality of corresponding elements (26, 34, 44), made on the inner surface of the seat (22) of the hemispherical element (3) to prevent the rotation of the pole (8) around an axis (X) passing through the centre of the coupling device (20) while leaving free the oscillatory movement of the pole (8) with respect to said axis (X).

An abdominal exercise assembly includes a bracket that is longitudinally elongated to extend substantially across a door frame. The bracket has a pair of foot recesses each integrated into the bracket to have a respective one of a user's feet positioned in the foot recesses. A plurality of foot pads is each positioned on the bracket and each of the foot pads extends along a respective one of the foot recesses to cushion a respective one of the user's feet when the user's feet are extended into the foot recesses. A pair of clamps is each movably integrated into the bracket. Each of the clamps is movable toward or away from the bracket to engage opposite sides of the door frame for retaining the bracket in the door frame.

A group exercise device is provided. The device has a top where a person exercising can obtain balance and positional support during the exercise routine. In addition, the exercise device provides different points of attachment for exercise units. The attachment points vary in vertical placement measured from the floor such that individuals of different builds and heights can jointly use the unit during either solo or group routines. The exercise device of the present invention promotes group interaction during an exercise routine by providing a stable attachment point for multiple users of exercise units, such as resistance bands, and a balance bar accessible in a communal fashion.

Exercise block systems and methods of use thereof include a plurality of exercise block components. In example forms, the exercise block components are configured for detachable engagement to one another such that the block components may be used separately or connected to one another. The exercise block system may be used as yoga blocks, stretch assistance equipment and/or a meditation seat. The block components may include a plurality of planar and/or non-planar surfaces to accommodate various uses thereof and improve comfort and usability of the exercise block system.

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 treadmill includes a frame, an exercise deck attached to the frame, and a first handle movably attached to the frame. The first handle has a first orientation where the first handle is positioned within a region above the exercise deck and stabilized to support a user's weight during a body weight exercise, and a second orientation where the first handle is positioned away from the region above the exercise deck.

A yoga block includes panels forming a quadrilateral tube and secured to one another by hinges such that the tube may be collapsed. Endcaps secure to ends of the quadrilateral tube and engage the quadrilateral tube to resist collapse when in place. Panels may define protrusions engaging recesses on edges of the endcaps. Magnets in the endcaps may engage the hinges to secure the endcaps in place. Rotating or sliding tabs may also be used to lock the endcaps. Inner surfaces of top and bottom panels may define grooves for receiving a weight plate. Endcaps may be secured to panels by hinges. The hinges securing panels or endcaps may be double hinges.
