  • the platform (41) can slide vertically under the weight of the exerciser from a higher starting position ( Fig. 13B ) defined by an edge (45), to a lower position ( Fig. 13C ) defined by the equilibrium between the weight of the exerciser and the force exerted by an elastic element (46).
  • the elastic element (46) is a compression type spring and is inserted inside the section bar (12) of the vertical straight guide (10) and positioned below the second slider (43).
  • the straight guide (10) comprises a central opening (48) which extends for the whole stroke of the platform (41), that is from the upper end position defined by the edge (45) to the lower position defined by the block of the spring (46).
  • the second slider (43) comprises a plate (47) that fits inside the section bar (12) of the vertical straight guide (10) through the opening (48) and which crushes the spring ( Fig. 14A, 14B ).
  • the stiffness of the spring (46) is chosen for example so as to allow a platform lowering of 40cm for a user weighing 60 kg.
  • the spring can be used also springs with variable stiffness so that when the platform is used by hefty users, the spring with lower stiffness is crushed completely and then starts to work the spring with greater stiffness.
  • the spring can be used coaxial springs of different lengths inserted one into the other, or even plate springs.
  • the spring is of the traction type and it is connected at one end to the plate of the second slider and at the other end to an inner wall of the section bar of the vertical straight guide, at a position higher than the plate.
  • They may be helical traction springs or, preferably, elastic bands. It can also be used two or more elastic bands in parallel. The first elastic band is permanently attached to the plate of the second slider, while the second or subsequent are connected to the plate according to the assistance that is required and the weight of the performer.
  • Fig. 15 shows the whole apparatus (1) according to an embodiment, where the U-shaped equipment (30) is further provided with the supports for the execution of exercises of leg raises on dip bars and reverse crunch on dip bars.
  • On each of the two arms (31) are fixed two support plates (361) for the forearms of the exerciser and on the first slider (20) is fixed a support plate (362) for the back of the exerciser.
  • the two support plates (361) are inclined, with reference to when the U-shaped equipment (30) is positioned in the working position and relative to a horizontal plane, of an angle comprised between 0° and 45°, angle considered in a rotation direction that brings the two plates to look one another.
  • the exerciser can settle back on the vertical straight guide (10), leaned with his back on the support plate (362) of the first slider (20) and staying suspended with the forearms on the supports (361) of the two arms (31), and perform exercises of leg raises on dip bars and reverse crunch on dip bars.
  • the hands of the exerciser grab directly the arms (31) or the first tube (351) of the handles (35) or two dedicated handles fixed to the arms (31) or on the first tube (351).
  • two further tubes (354) are fixed on the first tube (351), which offer, when the handles (35) are positioned outwards, a grip for the hands vertical or slightly inclined.
  • the straight guide (10), the first slider (20), the second slider (43), the U-shape equipment (30), the platform (41) with its arm (42), are preferably made of a metallic material, steel or aluminium alloy.
  • the solution proposed by the present invention provides a complete apparatus for the execution of multiple bodyweight exercises that, when unused, occupies a very small space.
  • An apparatus such as that proposed by the present invention can be used alone or combined with other apparatus, to be used by multiple users simultaneously, both on one's own and under the supervision of an instructor during a course.
  • Another possible use of the apparatus such as that proposed by the present invention is the domestic one, installing it for example on an unused wall of the house.
