An exercise machine system that allows for completion of a plurality of exercises on one machine is disclosed. The exercise machine system includes a frame having a front bar and a base with a first cross bar extending therebetween; a weight attachment bar pivotally attached to the first cross bar via a pivot joint secured to the first cross bar, the weight attachment bar extending to a weight end; a triangular frame extending from the front bar; a second cross bar extending from the base and coupled to the triangular frame; a body support positioned above the triangular frame, the body support having one or more pads to allow for supporting a person thereon, the body support having one or more bars configured to removably couple to the body support; a leg support secured directly to the body support, the leg support having one or more pads; a cable having a first end and an opposing end; a first pulley secured directly to the leg support via first anchor; and a second pulley secured directly to the weight attachment bar via a second anchor.

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.

An exercise machine includes a resistance device and vertical members extending from a base. A moveable section mounted to the vertical members moves vertically along the vertical members and horizontally towards or away from a user. Additional vertical members, which are located outside the vertical members, extend from the base, and accommodate functional training devices which facilitate three-dimensional exercise movements by the user. Each functional training device includes pulleys which accommodate a cable mechanically linked to the resistance device and extending between the pulleys to a cable termination device.

Controlling an exercise machine includes receiving a stream of measurements of extension of a component of an exercise machine. It further includes characterizing the stream of measurements including detecting at least one extremum having at least one extremum parameter. It further includes matching the extremum parameter with a previously determined signature associated with a user. It further includes changing an output of the exercise machine based at least in part on the match.

A retractable walking treadmill which may be connected to an adjustable-height desk, in such a way as to be able to be retracted and stowed vertically when not in use.

A portable exercise device that allows a user to train the muscles in both the upper and lower body while offering a user to choose among varying amounts of resistance. The portable exercise device also allows a user to pack the entire exercise device into a compact unit that is convenient for transporting or traveling. The portable exercise device is composed of a platform, a hinged body, a base, rods, cables, and a series of handle assemblies to provide the user with the ability to perform a variety of exercises.

A portable lower limb therapy device having a support base and a force transfer system. The support base includes an exterior surface suitable to slide on smooth surfaces and an interior surface suitable to receive and conform to a foot of a user. The force transfer system embodied through one or two cords integrated with the support base and operates to transfer force applied behind and above the foot of a user that is in the support base to the support base. The portable lower limb therapy device may be used with a wearable anchor that is attachable to the thigh of the user of allows for the cord or cords to be fixed in place for the performance of static progressive stretch therapy motions without requiring ongoing manual force.

An exercise apparatus for exercising the neck muscles with a frame and an exercise mechanism which is mounted on the frame, which can be coupled to a coupling member that can be worn on or around the head of a person who is exercising, wherein the exercise mechanism comprises a cross slide which makes available two translation axes on which a rail is mounted so as to be adjustable in height and rotatable, in such a way that, by means of the exercise mechanism, the coupling member is rotatable about three rotation axes and is movable in translation along three translation axes.
