Abstract: An exercise bar cord impingement assembly permits exercise in two modes, defined in terms of how cord anchoring is arranged. It also permits exercise to be conducted either with a stretchable cord and handgrip together connected to the bar's body or just the stretchable cord itself so connected. In either case, there are slots in the bar's body to slide the cord through. Specially shaped wells or nests accommodate impingement of the elastic cord and firm handgrip emplacement. The ends of the bar's body are preferably shaped into pipe bowl configuration disposed to insure a good fit and avoid torque.

Abstract: A beam assembly includes a receiver section having connector and receiving ends. A first connector is provided at the connector end and includes a rounded wall that extends above the receiver section. A tongue section includes a connector end, tongue end and recess section. The tongue end is configured to match and connect with the receiving end of the receiver section. A second connector is provided at the connector end and includes a rounded wall that extends above the tongue section. A locking mechanism includes an aperture and depression on the receiver section. The depression is tapered from an inner surface out to an outer surface of the receiver section. A parabolic groove is formed on the recess section of the tongue section and is arranged to face the opening of the parabolic shape away from the tongue section. A knob is provided on the end of a cantilevered segment.

Abstract: An exercise system includes an elastic cord assembly including an elastic and plugs. The elastic has a first and second end and a stretch between the first and second ends. One of the plugs is inserted into the first end and another one of the plugs is inserted into the second end. At least one strap assembly is slidably attached to the elastic cord assembly. The strap assembly includes a block having an aperture formed from one side to another side of the block forming an unbroken wall through the block. The strap assembly also includes a strap connected to the block in a manner that forms a loop in the strap. The plugs retain the strap assembly on the stretch of the elastic cord assembly between the first and second ends.
