Abstract: A portable elastic resistance exercise apparatus comprising two panels selectively affixed in a 90 degree angle. Both panels are padded for user interaction. Elastic resistance is positioned as chosen within cutouts in the back panel, at any height and with any resistance chosen. Grips on the resistance enable either grasping or hooking around limbs or body parts. The apparatus folds for portability and also includes non-skid and other anchoring devices for temporary affixation to foreign objects and surfaces. The apparatus therefore offers a truly portable, all-in-one exercise device.

Abstract: A hand held exercise device includes a pair of dumbbells rotatably attached to a cross bar and which can be held between the hands of a user gripping the dumbbells. Grips are preferably positionable around the dumbbells to require the user to hold the exercise device in an open hand grip. The dumbbells are removably connected to the cross bar to permit use of the dumbbells separately, with or without the grips.

Abstract: An apparatus used for exercising includes a shaft with a crossbar mounted at one end. A pair of stirrups connected by a cord are trained about a pulley which is carried by the crossbar. The apparatus may be used for simulating a bicycle-like motion by placing one's feet in the stirrups while sitting down and alternatingly pumping the back and forth in the stirrups. A second handle and carrying case complete the apparatus such that when the crossbar and pulley are removed from the shaft the handle may be removably attached to the same end and the shaft then used as a walking assist device. The crossbar, pulley, and stirrups may then be stored in the carrying case.

Abstract: A hand held exercise device includes a pair of dumbbells rotatably attached to a cross bar and which can be held between the hands of a user gripping the dumbbells. Grips are preferably positionable around the dumbbells to require the user to hold the exercise device in an open hand grip. The dumbbells are removably connected to the cross bar to permit use of the dumbbells separately, with or without the grips.

Abstract: An apparatus for performing exercises including a case for transporting the exercise device and for use in performing the exercises. The case can be a simulated briefcase, so that the exercise device can be carried around like ordinary luggage, or be another type of container. Included are elastic cables which can be moved from stowed positions in the case to exercising positions in which portions of the cables extend outwardly from the case. The portions of the cables remaining in the case are restrained against stretching thereby allowing essentially only the portions of the cables extending outwardly from the case to be stretched. In performing exercises, the outwardly extending portions of the cables are pulled against the case, thereby setting up isometric forces which resist the pulling action and enable the desired strength training. It is possible to exercise all of the major muscle groups and to replicate the exercises performed on popular stationary exercise apparatus.
