Abstract: An exercise device employing side-by-side pivotally supported moving surfaces. In one particular example, an exercise device employs a first belt deployed about a front roller and a rear roller and an adjacent second belt deployed about a front roller and a rear roller. The rear of the belts in the area of the rear rollers are pivotally secured and the front of the belts in the area of the front roller are adapted to reciprocate in an up and down motion during use. In some implementations, the moving surfaces include an interconnection structure such that a generally downward movement of one surface is coordinated with a generally upward movement of the other surface. In other implementations, the moving surfaces are operably associated with one or more resistance elements that effect the amount of force required to pivot or actuate the moving surfaces.

Abstract: An exercise device employing side-by-side pivotally supported moving surfaces. In one example, an exercise device employs a first pivotable treadle assembly including a first moving surface, a first foot platform extending outwardly from a side of the first treadle assembly, and a second pivotable treadle assembly including a second moving surface. In some implementations, the exercise device includes a resistance element operably coupled to at least one of the first treadle assembly or the second treadle assembly to resist movement of the at least one of the first treadle assembly or the second treadle assembly. In some implementations, the exercise device includes an adjustment mechanism for adjusting a slope of at least one of the first treadle assembly or the second treadle assembly.

Abstract: An exercise device may include one or more leg assemblies operatively joined to a user engagement component. The leg assemblies may position the user engagement component at an initial or rest position, which may be a predetermined distance above a support surface. The leg assemblies may be configured to allow a user to move the user engagement towards the support surface from the initial or rest position. The exercise device may further include one or more biasing or resistance components that are joined to at least one leg assembly and that resist movement of the user engagement component towards the support surface. The biasing or resistance components may further be configured to return the engagement component to its initial or rest position.

Abstract: An exercise device may include a main body defining an arch-shaped structure, at least one movable support mechanism coupled to the main body and configured to support the exercise device on a support surface, and at least one gripping mechanism coupled to the main body. The main body may be formed from a shape retaining material. The exercise device may further include a biasing mechanism coupled to the main body. The at least one movable support mechanism may include wheels coupled to the main body. The at least one gripping mechanism may include a handle or a recess or an elongated slot formed in the main body. The main body may further include apertures for joining the handle to the main body at various positions.
