Abstract: An exercise device includes a rigid handle having a lower end and an upper end. The upper end is adapted for grasping by a person's hand, and the lower end is fixed with a shaft receiver. A bottom end of the shaft receiver is adapted for receiving a top end of a rigid shaft that is adapted to receive one or more weights. A weight stop projects away from a lower end of the rigid shaft to prevent the weights from sliding off of the rigid shaft. In use, with one or more of the weights fixed on the rigid shaft, and with the top end of the rigid shaft fixed with the shaft receiver, the person may grasp the handle to perform exercises. A latch of the shaft receiver selectively locks the rigid shaft with the shaft receiver. The shaft and shaft receiver may include cooperative screw threads.

Abstract: An exercise machine which includes a centralized spring box and multiple gripping surfaces with which an exerciser may perform a wide range of exercise moves. The exercise machine includes a movable carriage and platform on a track. Bias members may be connected between the carriage and various structural elements of the exercise machine so as to impart a resistance force against movement of the carriage. An outer handle may be positioned around a carriage platform so as to surround the carriage platform. Inner handles may be positioned between the carriage platform and the outer handle, with the inner handle(s) being connected not to the outer handle or the carriage platform, but to an underlying support assembly.
