Benefits of technology

[0010]An exercise ball assists in a natural rocking motion that assist in the user crunching the abdominal or flexing the lower back muscles. Furthermore, the user has to balance oneself on an exercise ball which adds to the exercise process giving the user those additional benefits of working small stabilizer muscles in additional to the m...

Problems solved by technology

Strengthening small stabilizer muscles also decreases the chance of injury to the core muscles.
But, a regular exercise ball does not support a user's head and there is no place for the hand to grip.
This isn't easy to do.
However...

Embodiment Construction

[0051]Referring to FIG. 1, there is shown an embodiment of an isometric view of an core exercise equipment 100 which has a single hand bar 1 with head rest 2 removably attached to the top of a substantially round seat 3.

[0052]The round seat 3 is further connected to the top of a semi-sphere base 4 as shown in FIG. 2 which is a front view of the core exercise equipment 100 of FIG. 1. The semi-sphere base 4 includes a top flat layer 22 made of a rigid material and a semi-sphere 23 made of an elastic material such as rubber or the like that allows for the safe tilting of said device without creating harm to the flooring underneath.

[0053]As shown in FIG. 2, the center portion of the hand bar 1 has a rubber wrapping 21 to ensure a firm grip that prevents the hands from sliding. The headrest 2 has a felt surface to cushion the head.

[0054]The core exercise equipment 100 may further comprise a soft pad 8 on top of the seat 3 to provide comfort to the user. The top of the seat 3 and bottom o...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an apparatus that has the specific feature of acting as an abdominal and lower back muscles workout device that is structured in the shape of a semi-sphere with a flat top seat and side handle bars that can be attached on each side to the flat top seat and rotated around to various positions or pulled outward or upward to any desired width or height as well as a single handle bar that has a head rest on one side and can be attached to the semi-sphere base. The semi-sphere base prevents the floor from being scratched.

REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This patent application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 883,192 filed on Sep. 27, 2013, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a core exercise equipment and more particularly to a portable exercise equipment that has the specific features for working and strengthening abdominal and lower back muscles.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]Exercise devices provide muscle building benefits in a variety of ways. Some exercise devices require repetitive body motion and use pulley or lever assemblies to simulate exercises done with free weights. Others use isometric principles, or utilize resilient devices such as springs or elastic cords.[0006]To balance oneself on a device also adds to the exercise process. In addition a device can be created that will assist with certain exercises to fac...
