Embodiment Construction

[0016]Referring now to FIG. 1, a perspective view of an aquatic exercise system (“system”) 10 is shown. System 10 includes an aquatic exercise apparatus (“apparatus”) 12 positioned within an aquatic environment 14, which may be any type of natural or artificial structure or formation containing a volume of water. Aquatic environment 14 includes, among other things, ponds, hot tubs, baths, and pools (hereinafter, “pool 14”). Apparatus 12 includes a base 16 and an aquatic exercise pole (“pole”) 18 coupled with base 16. As will be apparent from the following discussion, each apparatus 12 is structured to be deployed in a pool 14 to assist users during aquatic exercise.

[0017]Referring now also to FIG. 2, a sectioned side view of system 10 is shown. As can be seen, pool 14 may have a floor 20 and a plurality of walls 22 adjacent to floor 20. Pool includes a volume of water that has a water surface 26 defining a horizontal plane 28. Floor 20 may include at least one substantially planar s...

Abstract

An aquatic exercise system includes a pool and an aquatic exercise apparatus positioned in the pool. The aquatic exercise apparatus includes a base and an aquatic exercise pole having a first substantially straight section, a second substantially straight section, and a curved transition section between the first substantially straight section and the second substantially straight section. The curved transition section includes a bend, and the aquatic exercise apparatus is positioned in the pool such that bend is above a surface of water in the pool.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 554,796 titled “AQUATIC EXERCISE AND STRETCHING APPARATUS,” to Mark V. Saunders, filed Nov. 15, 2017, the entire disclosure of which is expressly incorporated by reference herein.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present disclosure relates generally to an exercise device and, more specifically, to an aquatic exercise apparatus suitable for use in an aquatic environment.BACKGROUND[0003]In the United States and in many other countries throughout the world, populations are aging at a rapid pace. For example, the percentage of Americans over the age of 65 is expected to reach 20% within the next 15 years. Occurrences of aging-related health issues are therefore likely to continue to increase, likely intensifying an already burgeoning public health crisis. The elderly population is known to experience higher rates most types of health-related ailments and conditions, including, but certainly not...
