A device and method of exercising that is light-weight, portable, versatile and requires no assembly. The device includes a substantially rigid body portion with substantially angled ends, suitable for engagement by hands or feet of a user, or in conjunction with doors, exercise equipment or additional exercise accessories, such as resistance bands, in order to perform numerous efficient and effective exercises.

A supporting device for performing exercises is disclosed. The device comprises of a mounting panel that may be clamped to bottom sides of doors using an adhesive. A support plate may be pivotably connected to the mounting panel using a hinged connector. A locking mechanism for adjusting the angle between the support plate and the mounting panel may be provided. Herein, the locking mechanism may lock the support plate at one or more angles with respect to the mounting panel. A cylindrical support bar may be mounted on the bottom side of the support plate for providing a primary support for a user performing exercise. Further, a rope and pulley mechanism mounted on the top side of the support plate may provide a secondary support for the user performing exercise.

In some embodiments, a battle rope strength trainer device is provided. The battle rope strength trainer device provides a multifunction exercise device that combines strength building properties of body weight strength exercises with the cardiovascular training of battle rope oscillation exercises in one product. In one embodiment, the battle rope strength trainer device includes an anchor, a rope and a mounting device. The rope includes a first end coupled to the anchor and two free ends. The first end is attachable to a structure via the anchor and the two free ends are positioned opposite to the first end. The mounting device is coupled to the structure above the anchor. In that regard, the mounting device is adapted to receive a portion of the rope associated with each of the two free ends to enable movement of the rope for a plurality of exercises.

This invention is a portable exercise system capable of performing multiple exercises for strength and endurance training. The key component is the force generation unit (FGU) which is small and light enough to be suspended during the exercise yet capable of producing a force of 50 lbs. The FGU is programmable allowing it to generate various force vs distance, time or velocity profiles. Different handles, cables and attachments can be connected or used with the FGU perform different exercises. The FGU can charge its battery from the user's energy during use. The FGU can communicate bidirectionally with computers and smart phones for setup and to track the user's performance. Multiple FGUs may be used simultaneously each performing a separate function. The entire system is small enough to fit in a drawer or suitcase. The accompanying software can track the user's performance and function as an automated personal trainer.

Suspension training systems include one or more bands, and one or more handles. The handles can be coupled to the bands, and transmit user-generated forces to the bands. The systems also include a force sensor that measures the user-generated forces acting on the bands, and a computing device that acquires and displays information relating to the exercise session. The systems can generate recommendations for future exercise sessions based on the acquired information, so that exercise sessions can be tailed to the specific needs and capabilities of the user.

A portable exercise device that allows a person to do Pilates type exercises without using traditional, cumbersome equipment. The device uses a pair of wheel assemblies each attached to each end of a central shaft. The shaft height can be adjusted from the center of each wheel to a lower point closer to the ground. Adjustable cam lockable hand/foot plates are attached to the shaft allowing the user to attach his or her feet to the shaft. Each hand/foot plate assembly includes a rotational plate that allows the hand/foot plate to be positioned at various angles in relation to the shaft. Resistance bands are attached on one side to the shaft and on the opposite side to a resistance source. The resistance source can be the user's own hands or feet, or a retaining strap attached to the lower portion of a door or wall.

A vertically adjustable double end bag system includes a double end bag connected to a tether. The tether may be a continuous cord o two connected cords, and may be flexible or substantially fixed length. The double end bag includes an adjuster mechanism for selectively positioning the bag. A support, such as may be connected to a door or other upright fixture or as may be free-standing via a base, connects to and suspends the tether.

The present invention is a portable rowing machine that allows a user to perform rowing, skiing, paddling, or any other physical activities at any suitable location. The portable rowing machine contains a housing, a pulley, a flywheel, a planetary gear assembly, an anchor, a retraction mechanism, and a pull cord. The housing contains a central gear support. The pulley, the flywheel, the planetary gear assembly, and the retraction mechanism are positioned within the housing. The central gear support is positioned within the housing. The planetary gear assembly is positioned within the central gear support. The pulley and the flywheel are axially connected opposite to each other along the planetary gear assembly. The retraction mechanism is operatively connected to the pulley, where the retraction mechanism is configured to retract the pull cord into a spooled state around the pulley. The anchor is externally connected to the housing.
