Abstract: An exercise apparatus includes a squat rack comprising a number of members forming a cage, a resistance device associated the said squat rack, a cable pull device attached to one of said number of members, and a cable connecting the resistance device to the cable pull device, where the cable extends along one or more of the number of members such that sides of the cage are unobstructed by the cable.

Abstract: An exercise machine includes a resistance device and vertical members extending from a base. A moveable section mounted to the vertical members moves vertically along the vertical members and horizontally towards or away from a user. Additional vertical members, which are located outside the vertical members, extend from the base, and accommodate functional training devices which facilitate three-dimensional exercise movements by the user. Each functional training device includes pulleys which accommodate a cable mechanically linked to the resistance device and extending between the pulleys to a cable termination device.

Abstract: A handle for a rowing machine is provided. The handle has a cursor control device which accepts user input. A processor is in electronic communication with the cursor control device and an electronic display. An electronic storage device comprises executable software instructions, which when executed, configure the processor to receive user input from the cursor control device and move the cursor on a graphical user interface (“GUI”) in response to the received user input or update the GUI based on user input.

Abstract: An exercise machine may include a box rack and at least one functional training device secured to the box rack and connected to at least one resistance device. The box rack may be comprised of a number of base members, vertical members, and upper members. A first functional training device may be mounted to a first vertical member in a slidable arrangement. A second functional training device may be mounted to a second vertical member in a slidable arrangement. A third functional training device may be located on an upper portion of the box rack. A fourth functional training device may be located on a lower portion of the box rack.

Abstract: An exercise machine for performing a leg press exercise includes a resistance device and a plate configured to receive a user's feet during the leg press exercise. An adjustable resistance attachment device is mechanically coupled to the plate and is be selectively coupled to an adjustable resistance attachment device. One or more cables mechanically couple the adjustable resistance device to the resistance device to define a resistance ratio. Attachment of the adjustable resistance device to the adjustable resistance attachment device results in an increase of the resistance ratio for the machine.

Abstract: An exercise machine includes a first and second vertical member extending from a base section. A moveable section is mounted to the first and second vertical members and is moveable vertically along the first and second vertical members as well as horizontally. A third and fourth vertical member also extend from the base section. A first and second functional training device are mounted to the third and fourth vertical members, respectively, and are selectively securable at various locations along the same. At least one cable connects a resistance device to the moveable section as well as to the functional training devices.

Abstract: A boot and bicycle tire bath and method of using the same for facilitating the removal of undesirable material, such as from rubber or synthetic material, including cleaning snow and ice with grit from the soles of footwear and/or the tires of bicycles. Footwear may be dipped in a fluid in the bath, removing grit and other material, and thereafter left to dry on optional heel and/or toe holds. A bicycle tire, optionally supported by spaced apart rollers, may likewise be rotated through the fluid for cleaning.

Abstract: An array of equi-spaced photodetectors can be used to detect the reconstructed image of a binary-coded Fraunhofer hologram read out at a different wavelength from that employed in recording the hologram, without the chance of spurious data bits due to reinforcement of intermodulation components, by aperiodically spacing an array of points, corresponding to the bit positions of the binary code, during the recording of the hologram in an appropriate manner.
