FIG. 6 shows an exemplary horizontal multi-use bar.
The exemplary horizontal multi-use bar 10 (FIG. 1) as shown in FIG. 6 includes handlegrips 17 (FIG. 1) and frame attachment means 605 and 610.
FIG. 7 shows an exemplary use of asymmetrical arm tubes.
FIGS. 7 and 8 demonstrate a partial body-weight dip. These are commonly done on the side of a regular gym bench or a common chair. The problem is that the body is forced to work out in front of the shoulder joints, making it a detrimental exercise for most people. By allowing the body to perform the exercise in-between the tube handles, the shoulders are in safer bio-mechanical alignment, placing the user at far less risk as compared to the old way of doing the exercise.
Additionally, the independent handles are offset on either side to allow for the more asymmetrical natural movement patterns of the body, hence a greater stimulus in a shorter amount of time.
The main muscle groups stimulated are the triceps, shoulders/deltoids and pectorals/chest. The benefits of proper stimulation of these muscle groups are increased muscle density, enhanced muscle strength, improved neuro-muscular efficiency, premature age reversal, delayed onset of premature aging, enhanced sports performance, and a reduction in common shoulder injuries
Shown in FIG. 7 are left arm tube 2, right arm tube 3, right base weldment 4, left base weldment 5, left main post weldment or left vertical support bar 6, right main post weldment or right vertical support bar 7, and rear upright 8.
FIG. 8 shows an exemplary use of asymmetrical arm tubes.
Shown in FIG. 8 are left arm tube 2, right arm tube 3, right base weldment 4, left base weldment 5, left main post weldment or left vertical support bar 6, and right main post weldment or right vertical support bar 7.
FIG. 9 shows an exemplary use of asymmetrical arm tubes.
FIGS. 9 and 10 demonstrate a partial body-weight inverted row/pull-up. This primarily focuses on the back and biceps muscle groups, with secondary assistance from several other muscle groups, such as the core, abdominal, and pelvic region. The common exercises that are typically done in health clubs and gyms are the bent-over rows and dumbbell rows. The problem with bent over barbell and dumbbell rows is the stress-force they place on the lower back discs, muscles and nerves. Injuries during these movements are quite common, even in the seasoned fitness professional crowd. Injuries range from chronic to acute and sometimes require rehabilitation and/or surgery.
The partial body-weight inverted rows allow for the body to move against gravity, while placing the exerciser at minimal risk of injury. Also present is the asymmetrical feature of the independent handles allowing for more natural movement patterns of the human body. Just like most of the movements and exercises that can be performed on the unit, these are done facing both ways, in an alternating set fashion (away from the base, and then toward the base).
Benefits of this exercise, for these specific muscle groups, are also increased muscle density, enhanced muscle strength, improved neuro-muscular efficiency, premature age reversal, delayed onset of premature aging, enhanced sports performance and reduction in common lower-back injuries.
Shown in FIG. 9 are left arm tube 2, right arm tube 3, right base weldment 4, left base weldment 5, left main post weldment or left vertical support bar 6, right main post weldment or right vertical support bar 7, and rear upright 8.
FIG. 10 shows an exemplary use of asymmetrical arm tubes.
Shown in FIG. 10 are left arm tube 2, right arm tube 3, right base weldment 4, left base weldment 5, left main post weldment or left vertical support bar 6, right main post weldment or right vertical support bar 7, and rear upright 8.
FIG. 11 shows an exemplary fitness training sub-unit.
FIG. 11 shows the rigid mat detached from the main unit base, in which it can be used this way, or if not in use, when attached to the bottom of the unit, it can also be rotated/lifted upward, rotating on its holder/hinges and placed into a stored position so the unit can be used for all the other exercises and workouts, without the hindrance of the rigid mat being in the way.
Additionally, the holders for the rigid mat can be attached to the unit base at about mid-level, allowing the rigid mat to be hung in a vertical position, with the soft side facing the user, allowing for a series of other fitness training movements, exercises and stretches.
Shown in FIG. 11 are small bench pad 15 (FIG. 1) and large bench pad 16 (FIG. 1). Also shown in FIG. 11 is the exemplary frame support 11 (FIG. 1), including a proximal end 405 (FIG. 4), which may be in contact with a flat horizontal surface, angle inflection point 410 (FIG. 4), wherein the angle formed between the proximal end of the small bench pad 15 (FIG. 1) and the distal end of the large bench pad (16) (FIG. 1) is approximately ten degrees, and frame attachment means 420. Frame attachment means 420 is at or near the distal end of the frame support.
Also shown in FIG. 11 is distal end 1105 of the small bench pad 15, the proximal end 1110 of the small bench pad 15, the distal end 1115 of the large bench pad 16 and the proximal end 1120 of the large bench pad 16.
FIG. 12 shows an exemplary use of the fitness training unit.
FIG. 12 demonstrates an example of the core/lower-body training movement, where the rigid mat is attached at a slightly elevated height, allowing for several inches of extra ground clearance, while providing comfort and ergonomic stability via various gripping options and the 10 degree angle of the 2 bench pads.
Shown in FIG. 12 are right base weldment 4, left main post weldment or left vertical support bar 6, and right main post weldment or right vertical support bar 7. Also shown in FIG. 12 is the exemplary frame support 11 (FIG. 1) with the small bench pad 15 and large bench pad 16 covered by a towel. Additionally, FIG. 12 includes a proximal end 405 (FIG. 4) of frame support 11, which may be in contact with a flat horizontal surface.
FIG. 13 shows an exemplary use of the fitness training unit and the fitness training sub-unit.
FIGS. 13 and 14 demonstrate several stretching exercises on the rigid mat, in conjunction with tube handle gripping assistance from the main unit, and with gripping options built into the rigid mat itself. These exercises are done to improve flexibility which reduces back aches and pains, reduces risk of common injuries due to weak and stiff back muscles, and also enhances sports and life activity performance.
Shown in FIG. 13 are left arm tube 2, right arm tube 3, right base weldment 4, left base weldment 5, left main post weldment or left vertical support bar 6, bench frame or frame support 11, center bracket weldment 13, and base crosstube weldment 14.
FIG. 14 shows an exemplary use of the fitness training sub-unit.
Shown in FIG. 14 are small bench pad 15 (FIG. 1) and large bench pad 16 (FIG. 1). Also shown in FIG. 14 is the exemplary frame support 11 (FIG. 1), including angle inflection point 410 (FIG. 4) and frame attachment means 415 (FIG. 4).
FIG. 15 shows an exemplary use of the fitness training sub-unit.
FIG. 15 demonstrates the rigid mat being used, detached from main unit, on ground level, so as to allow for easier variations of certain exercises for various users and goals.
Shown in FIG. 15 are small bench pad 15 (FIG. 1) and large bench pad 16 (FIG. 1). Also shown in FIG. 15 is the exemplary frame support 11 (FIG. 1), including angle inflection point 410 (FIG. 4) and frame attachment means 415 (FIG. 4).
FIG. 16 shows an exemplary use of the fitness training unit and the fitness training sub-unit.
FIG. 16 demonstrates the rigid mat being used in combination with the beveled platform step attached to the main unit base. This particular exercise replaces several older, traditional, more costly health club machines, by providing physical stimulation of various muscle groups on the calves, legs, hips, core, torso, shoulders and abdominals—through the use of body-weight training against gravity, in positions that challenge the body in a natural way that simplifies the workout process and the results desired, while reducing the risk of common gym workout training approaches.
It is difficult to perform these types of exercises otherwise because traditional fitness equipment is built to use extra weight plates, weight stack with cables, barbells and dumbbells—and therefore are not built for these gentler, more natural movements that are more easily performed by the general population.
Also, it is dangerous to even attempt doing any of these movements on home-made equipment, or household furniture. The intentional design and stability of the fitness training unit and sub-unit make all of the possible exercise programs and workout routines safe and conducive to better health, wellness and quality of life.
Shown in FIG. 16 are right base weldment 4 (FIG. 1), left base weldment 5 (FIG. 1), left main post weldment or left vertical support bar 6 (FIG. 1), platform 9 (FIG. 1), bench frame or frame support 11 (FIG. 1), base crosstube weldment 14 (FIG. 1), small bench pad 15 (FIG. 1), and large bench pad 16 (FIG. 1). Also shown in FIG. 16 is angle inflection point 410 (FIG. 4) and frame attachment means 415 (FIG. 4).
