Problems solved by technology

However, many of these exercising assemblies require bulky parts and therefore become inconvenient pieces of equipment.
Many exercising assemblies are muscle group-specific, and purchasing a plurality of exercising machines can be costly.
The use of numerous machines limits a user's workout routines and lengthens the time interval for resting, which can be a hindrance to one's cardiovascular workout.
A further disadvantage of existing methods of exercise is the unnecessary stresses placed on the body, which can potentially lead to injury or long-term harmful effects.
In addition, conventional workout apparatuses and methods become stagnant after periodic usage and the effectiveness on the conditioning of the body declines.
