Abstract: An exercise apparatus for surface-based gliding is provided. The gliding apparatus includes a handle structure including a handle-bar having two handle-ends respectively mounted on two end-base structures and a disk structure having a weight member clamped to a base member. The disk structure is removably coupled to the handle structure by locking the two end-base structures to two edge regions across the weight member. The two edge regions are configured for coupling from below to an alternative disk structure. The handle structure is configured to allow a user to engage anywhere from the handle-bar to a top surface of the disk structure to drive said disk structure with the base member gliding against a surface in an arbitrary direction for exercise. Exercise methods of using the gliding apparatus are also provided.
