Exercise system

Abstract

An exercise device is provided. The exercise device may include a mounting mechanism, a telescoping tube assembly and at least one strapping mechanism. The telescoping tube assembly may be extended and/or retracted to removably secure the exercise device within a frame, so that an operator may perform body-weight supported exercise routines therefrom. Moreover, the at least one strapping mechanism may adjustably slide about the telescoping tube assembly so that the operator may precisely set attachment points for any exercising accessories, such as resistance bands.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of priority of U.S. provisional application No. 61 / 815,613, filed 24 Apr. 2013, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to exercise systems and, more particularly, to an exercise devices that may be adjustably mounted to a door frame.[0003]Current exercise systems using resistance bands typically mount on a door. As a result, there attachment points are predetermined by the size and shape of the door, and so not adjustable. Moreover, the stationary attachment points are usually only at the top and the bottom of the door. Therefore, certain groups of muscles cannot be properly engaged, because these non-adjustable attachment points of resistance are either too high or too low. Additionally, some use pulleys that are noisy. Another problem is that utilization of such devices sometimes require that the door be closed, conseque...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0006]In another aspect of the present invention, exercise device for removably mounting to a frame comprises: a telescoping tube assembly comprising: at least one main tube, wherein each main tube terminates at a first opening and an opposing second opening, wherein each main tube has at least one main pinhole near the first opening and the second opening; and at least one join tube, each join tube comprising: two opposing ends; at least one join pinhole near each opposing end; a push button pin connected within the join tube near each join pinhole, wherein each first opening slidably receives a portion of the at least one join tube so that each push button pin assumes a fastened position; at least one end tube, each end tube comprising: at least one pinhole fastener; a main end; a mounting end

Problems solved by technology

As a result, there attachment points are predetermined by the size and shape of the door, and so not adjustable.

Therefore, certain groups of muscles cannot be properly engaged, because these non-adjustable attachment points of resistance are either too high or too low.

Additionally, some use pulleys that are noisy.
