DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0017] With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 6 thereof, a new workout apparatus embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.

[0018] As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 6, the wheeled workout handle apparatus 10 generally comprises a base 12 comprising a pair of side bars 14 and a cross bar 16 perpendicularly extending between the pair of side bars 14 such that each side bar lies along parallel axes. Each of the side bars 14 has rounded ends 18. A handle 20 is coupled to the base 12 and has a pair of vertical portions 22 coupled to a top side 24 of the pair of side bars 14 and a horizontal portion 26 extending between the pair of vertical portions 22. The handle 20 is rounded between each of the vertical portions 22 and the horizontal portion 26. The handle 20 is configured to be gripped on the horizontal portion 26 by a user or to receive a user's foot in the area between the cross bar 16 and the handle 20. A grip 28 is coupled to the handle 20 around the horizontal portion 26 for improved comfort and to reduce slippage.

[0019] A plurality of wheels 30 is coupled to the base 12 to allow the user to perform dynamic exercises. Each of the wheels 30 may have a round attachment hub 32 comprising an upper platform 34 coupled to a bottom side 36 of the side bar 14 and a lower platform 38 rotatably coupled to the upper platform 34. The wheel 30 has a pair of forks 40 extending from the lower platform 38 and a tire 42 rotatably coupled between the pair of forks 40. The plurality of wheels 30 may alternatively be fixed oriented along axes parallel with the axes of the side bars or along axes perpendicular to the axes of the side bars.

[0020] In use, the user secures one or a pair of the apparatus 10 by the grip 28 to perform upper body exercises such as pushups and planks and may utilize the plurality of wheels 30 to introduce dynamic variations. The user may alternatively place her feet on the cross bar 16 beneath the handle 20 to perform exercises such as lunges, mountain climbers, or others that involve moving the feet.

[0021] With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.

[0022] Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word comprising is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article a does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
