My invention pertains to a portable fitness apparatus that allows you to add numerous exercises to your back workout routine with the use of different angles while maintaining lesser points of body contact compared to modern gym back machines. The benefit having lesser points of body contact while using this apparatus is that you burn more calories compared to a modern gym back machine, primarily because you voluntary engage your back muscles as your primary target while involuntary engaging core muscles and quadriceps as your secondary target within the same movement. This apparatus is unique because nothing like this exists in the fitness industry. It is easily assembled, disassembled and light weight so you can take it anywhere. This invention creates a constant tension on your core muscles and quadriceps while working your back muscles, which allow you to burn more calories during your regular exercise movement, and all within the same time frame.

Exercise bench with enhancements that allow the obese, elderly, and physically challenged to participate in exercises performed on a conventional exercise bench

Номер: US20170259109A1
Принадлежит: II William Charles McJames

An exercise bench that allows elderly, obese, and physically challenged individuals to participate in the same exercise regimens as younger, more agile athletes is provided. The exercise bench of the current invention comprises cushioned side supports that stabilize the individual during reclining and during exercise. Due to the nature of the exercises performed in the prone position, an exercise bench is generally narrow in order to allow freedom of movement for the Individual's arms. The narrow bench can provide stability challenges for elderly and obese individuals which the side support cushions address by providing the required stability without interfering with the individual's range of arm motion for exercising. The present invention also includes mechanical means to assist the user in reclining to a prone position, and returning to an upright sitting position. Many individuals who want to use a conventional exercise bench are prohibited from doing so because they lack the abdominal strength to lie down slowly from a sitting position, and return to a sitting position after exercising without assistance. The exercise bench of the current invention overcomes these obstacles.
