Abstract: An exercise chair primarily directed to employing an exercise method, with foot bars, high bars, and a foldable configuration. The seat is supported by a plurality of support elements, at least some of which are hingeably connected with the seat, so that the chair can be folded into a compact shape for storage or transport. The independent foot bars may each be attached to a lever that is hingeably coupled with one or more of the support elements. The position of the foot bars may also be adjustable by extending out of the levers and locking into the desired position. One or more resistance elements may be removably attached to a location below the chair seat, and individually connected with the levers via an adjusting assembly that can either slide or be placed in pre-set mounting locations along the lever to provide variable resistance, or can be equipped with a turnbuckle to provide varying resistance.

Abstract: A DVD random shuffle method includes adapting a DVD player to play a pre-set initial routine, and instructing the DVD player to present a subsequent routine selection to a user. The subsequent routine selection is between a first pre-set routine and a second routine. The second routine is a random re-sequencing of the first pre-set routine. The method also includes directing the DVD player to play one of the first and second routines depending on the routine selection of the user, and thereafter, commanding the DVD player to play a pre-set terminal routine.
