  • Publication number: 20170182352
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a gyroscopic exercise apparatus. The present invention is comprised of a rotatable disc, a pair of retractable strings, and attachment means to connect the rotatable disc with the retractable strings. The rotatable disc is comprised of an outer ring structure that has crisscross connecting rods connecting the outer ring structure with inner center disc, and two plastic insert holes to allow the passage of retractable strings from the disc. This process will create tension when twisted and turned due to back and forth movement of the rotatable disc, which causes muscle development and fatigue.
