A waist twister includes a base disk, a rotation disk rotatably mounted on the base disk, a top disk secured on the rotation disk, a drive motor secured on the top disk and having an impeller, and a top cover secured on the top disk to cover the impeller. Thus, the impeller has an unevenly distributed weight on the drive motor, so that when the drive motor is operated to rotate the impeller, the drive motor produces a vibration to vibrate the top disk, the rotation disk and the base disk to prov...

An exercise apparatus that exercises at least two groups of muscles is disclosed. The apparatus utilizes a seated position for the person exercising and incorporates a elastomeric tension members to provide a resistance. The exercise apparatus has a seat and two legs formed on a semi-circle frame. Two rotatable arms have vertical adjusting means to accommodate persons of different statue. The present invention can be folded into a compact, easily transportable and storable unit.

Device for stimulating venous return in the lower limbs including a frame (1) intended to rest with a supporting surface against a foundation such as a floor, a bed head, a wall etc. The device is distinguished in that a foot plate (4) is arranged to tilt on frame (1) from an starting position that is angled in relation to the floor and thus frame (1) around an axle (5), that foot plate (4) is provided with a leaf spring (9) acting between a section (7) of the frame and the underside of foot pla...

An improved twist disc structure having a base disc with an axle in the center thereof for pivotally fitted thereon a movable disc, the upper surface of the base disc being provided with a plurality of undulating tracks. The movable disc has multiple through holes provided therein, and each through hole accommodates a lifting element. The base of these through holes are supported on the tracks. When the movable disc rotates on the base disc, the lifting elements move up and down in the correspon...

An exercise machine (10-10l) is provided having a platform (12-12l) on which a user (14-14l) is supported in a reclining position with the weight of the user (14-14G) being utilized as a resistance which may be selectively varied to the various exercises which may be performed on the exercise apparatus (10-10l). A lever (20-20l) is pivotally connected (30-32l) to the platform (12-12l) with the lever being actuated by the user for raising one end of the platform (12-12l) with respect to a pivot p...

A tilting inversion exerciser includes a table rotatably supported on a supporting stand for supporting a user, two pivot coupling devices each having a middle axle for pivotally attaching to the supporting stand and each having one arm secured to the side portions of the table for offsetting the table from the axles of the pivot coupling devices, and a rotating device for rotating the pivot coupling device relative to the supporting stand, to rotate the table relative to the supporting stand. T...

A tilting inversion exerciser includes a table rotatably supported on a supporting stand, a foot retaining device for being powered and actuated to clamp and to retain ankle portions of the user to the table without being operated manually by the user. A motorized coupling device may move and adjust the table relative to the stand. A safety device may be used for switching off the foot retaining device to prevent the ankle portions of the user from being disengaged from the foot retaining device...

In accordance with the principles of the present invention an exercise device is provided that comprises an oscillating platform and a support platform. The oscillating platform is connected to the support platform by a support having a main axis and an oscillating platform axis extending at an angle from the main axis, such that the oscillating platform defines a plane that is non-parallel to a plane defined by the support platform. An oscillating platform stabilizer enables the free angular un...

Balancing equipment that provides a selectively dynamic platform for an individual thereon. The weight and movement of the individual causes the platform to tilt in any direction, thereby attempting to throw off the balance of the individual, causing the individual to work on maintaining balance while on the dynamic platform. The dynamic nature of the platform can be adjusted to correspond to the balancing abilities of individuals. An adjustment mechanism increases or reduces the amount the plat...

An angle-adjustable exerciser comprises a base, an adjustment disk set and a support plate. The base attaches to a spherical cast piece on top and a plate with large surface at bottom. At the periphery of the spherical cast piece, there is an adjustment disk set composed of the first disk, the second disk and a few screws. At center of the first and second disks, there are holes for the disks to install at the periphery of the cast piece. At the corresponding position, there are several through ...
