Abstract
The Exercise Band Resistance System provides for an improved exercise resistance system to perform numerous total body exercises. An adjustable length elastic resistance cord may be combined with weights in order to vary the means of creating resistance during exercise. The length of the elastic resistance cord may be adjusted by means of a slip free, length quick adjustment device. The exercise band may be passed through the length quick adjustment device, which may be secured at any point along the length of the band, to change its effective usable length and thus change the level of strength, and range of motion. One end of the exercise band is attached to the hand. The other end of the band is secured to any anchor structure, including the foot.

SPECIFICATION
Field of the Invention This invention relates generally, to exercise devices and particularly to the adjustment of resistance bands to adapt to the unique dimensions of the users, the individual type of exercise and the resistance level need for a particular activity.
Background of the Invention Exercise devices of the type having elastic resistance bands are well known.
One drawback of an exercise device of this type having an elastic exercise band is that due to fixed band lengths in traditional handle designs, it becomes difficult to adjust to varying heights of the individual users.
Additionally, because of this fixed design, it does not accommodate different types of handles, which provide biometric benefits for various types of exercises. Lastly, due to the fixed length, it does not accommodate the need to increase and decrease the level of resistance.
Description of Invention The present invention as shown in Figure 1 provides for an improved exercise resistance system to conduct numerous total body exercises. An adjustable elastic resistance cord may be adjusted by means of a twist lock quick adjustment device as shown in Figures 2 and 3. The elastic resistance cord may be passed through the length quick adjustment device, which may be secured at any point along the length of the elastic resistance cord, to change its effective usable length. The quick adjustment device may be secured by twisting the device in one direction, and in the opposite direction to release the device.
The mechanical, nature of the twist lock device allows for the interchangeability of varying handles without having any additional mechanism to facilitate different handles by threading the new handle onto the twist lock quick adjustment device. An example how the handle can interchanged or varied by adding a weight is shown in Figure 4.
Securing the elastic resistance cord at a different point along the length of the elastic resistance cord effectively changes the resistance level.
