Abstract: A mechanism for adjusting the length of two straps making up a strength trainer of the type having a hand or foothold connected to a first strap and a second anchored strap. The mechanism has a rectangular ring mounted to move through a cross member engaged with a housing by a spring extended between the ring and the housing. A first strap is looped around a first member of the ring, while the second strap passes thought the ring below an opposite member and wrapping the cross member to pass through the ring a second time after passing between the opposite member of the ring and the second member so as to engage two high friction surfaces on the cross member and one on the ring. Adjustment is by rotating the housing and ring to be perpendicular to the load to unload the second strap from the high friction surfaces.

Abstract: A core wheel exercise device has a wheel with an axle and a shaft which extends through the wheel axle to which are mounted two handles. The handles in an extended configuration may be gripped or engaged by a user for exercise purposes, and in a collapsed storage configuration are aligned parallel to the wheel radius with a collapsed length equal to or slightly longer than the wheel radius so the core wheel may be supported on the ends of the handles. The handles are moved from the extended to the collapsed configuration by pushing the handles toward the wheel along dovetailed grooves in blocks on the shaft, allowing the handles to be rotated perpendicular to the shaft for storage. The blocks have an extension on one side of the shaft so the handles support a user so the handles cannot collapse under the load.

Abstract: An agility ladder exercise device has plural rungs which are connected by spaced flexible straps. Each rung has a left connector and a right connector, the left connector having structure thereon which engages with a right connector of a similar rung in a non-pivoting connection. The one or more ladders may be laid out on a play surface for use in agility exercises where the rungs of each ladder are spaced parallel to one another. Multiple ladders may be connected side to side, and can change lanes, or form a zig zag path. The ladders are stored with the rungs stacked parallel to one another within a holder with a U-shaped base. Each holder has connectors allowing a pair of holders to be releasably connected, and has a necked down region defined by restraint walls that engage with notches in the rungs.
