Benefits of technology

The present invention is a device that can be used for exercise by attaching various accessories to it. The device includes a second accessory disk that is placed on top of the bottom plate and has a curved surface for training the stability of the body.

Problems solved by technology

Further as told by Aquino, current exercise apparatus that permits a user to exercise a wide variety of muscle groups is generally massive, heavy and is intended for use in a fixed location.
In order for a user to achieve a full body workout using available portable exercise apparatus, a variety of different independent types of apparatus would be required that, in total, would be bulky, heavy and not practical as being portable.
However, push-up bars are often bulky and restrict the type of exercises that can be performed using solely the push-up bar.
In addition, for the physically fit, conventional push-ups, even when performed using a push-up bar, can be boring to perform and require a significantly large number of repetitions before the upper body experiences exertion.
