A protective rowing device for compression of the abdomen is provided that comprises a brace and U-shaped support member that may connect to a rowing machine seat and rail.

An exercise method and an exercise equipment are provided. The exercise method includes: determining an exercise guiding video according to a selected music input/audio signal, wherein the exercise guiding video includes a first exercise guiding video and/or a second exercise guiding video, the first exercise guiding video is a live video automatically generated according to the selected music input/audio signal, the second exercise guiding video is a video previously recorded according to the selected music input/audio signal; generating CGA and special-effect/animated feedbacks corresponding to the music information/audio signal and instruction/cuing in the exercise guiding video; playing the exercise guiding video, the CGA, the special-effect/animated feedbacks and the selected music input/audio signal on a display and computing device; receiving user performance data; displaying interactive feedback data on the display and computing device, according to a result obtained by matching the user performance data with music information/audio signal analyzed from selected music input/audio signal.

An exercise bike and a handlebar assembly are provided. The handlebar assembly includes: a rod-shaped handlebar; a support post; a first connecting component comprising a first recess, and further comprising a first tenon and a second tenon; a second connecting component comprising a first side, a second side away from the first side and a sidewall connecting the first side to the second side, wherein the second side of the second connecting component is provided with a second recess, and further provided with a first mortise and a second mortise. When the second recess is aligned with the first recess, a first through-hole is formed for the handlebar passing through, the first tenon is inserted in the first mortise, and the second tenon is inserted in the second mortise. The handlebar assembly can be easily assembled to the exercise bike.

A handlebar glove-like cover system for use on an exercise device wherein the cover system includes a generally U-shaped handlebar cover with a support band extending therebetween to provide support for items used by the user during the exercise program and the glove-like handlebar cover extends along and covers the majority of the handlebar of the exercise device while giving the user's hands a reliable grip and circumferential access to common riding positions.

A limbs cooperation exerciser and a control method for the same are provided. The limbs cooperation exerciser includes a frame, an upper limb exercise mechanism, a first driving module, a lower limb exercise mechanism, a second driving module, a first rotating speed sensor, a second rotating speed sensor, and a control module. The control module controls at least one of the first driving module and the second driving module according to the first rotating speed and the second rotating speed, making a differential value between the detected first rotating speed and the second rotating speed be smaller than or equal to a predetermined differential value. That is, the limbs cooperation exerciser controls the rotation of the first operating member or the second operating member to lower the difference between the rotating speeds of the first operating member and the second operating member.

A self-powered vibration mechanism is provided that can be mounted on an existing pedal shaft yet operates independent from the existing pedal. Mechanical isolation or mechanical decoupling permits transferring the vibrating energy to the foot rather than to the pedal shaft and the bicycle. In another embodiment, a full removable pedal with self-powered vibration mechanism can replace an existing pedal.

A stationary bicycle having a ballet barre coupled thereto is disclosed herein. While the stationary bicycle can have any suitable feature, in some cases, it includes a seat assembly having a seat post that is configured to be selectively raised and lowered with respect to a pedal axis of the stationary bicycle, a seat slide that is coupled to the seat post so as to selectively slide forward and backward with respect to the seat post, and a bicycle seat that is coupled to the seat slide. In some cases, the ballet barre is coupled, in a horizontal orientation, to at least one of: the seat post, the seat slide, and the bicycle seat such that the ballet barre is configured to be selectively raised and lowered with respect to the pedal axis of the stationary bicycle. Other implementations are described.

An exercise machine and a dual resistance structure combining wind resistance and magnetic resistance are disclosed. The dual resistance structure combining wind resistance and magnetic resistance includes a rotating shaft, a wind resistance unit, and a magnetic resistance unit. The wind resistance unit is disposed on the rotating shaft, and includes blades arranged annularly. Each blade has a notch recessed in an axial direction of the rotating shaft. The magnetic resistance unit includes a magnetic resistance member and a magnetic resistance wheel. The magnetic resistance wheel is disposed on the rotating shaft. The notch of each blade faces the magnetic resistance wheel to form a moving space between the magnetic resistance wheel and the notch. When the magnetic resistance member is moved relative to the magnetic resistance wheel along a radial direction of the magnetic resistance wheel, part of the magnetic resistance member is movable in the moving space.

The exercise machine having integrated video gaming system comprises a frame, a seat, pedals, a steering assembly, a display screen, and a controller. The exercise machine having integrated video gaming system may be a device adapted to be used by a user while exercising and may encourage the user to move in a manner that strengthens muscles, increases lung capacity, increases metabolism, or combinations thereof. The seat may be adapted for the user to sit upon while pedaling the pedals. The steering assembly may be adapted to be held and moved by the user while exercising. The display screen may be adapted to present still or moving images to the user while the user exercises. The display screen, the steering assembly, the pedals, or combinations thereof may be operable to interact with the controller as a gaming system.

An exercise apparatus having a stationary frame, a handlebar assembly, a frontal-torso assembly, a resistance assembly, a rotatable crankset having a pair of crankarms with pedals mounted thereon where the crankset is positioned rearward of the handlebar assembly and the frontal-torso assembly.
