International Classification:

A63B 3100

US Classification:

482111

Abstract:

A device designed for use on land solely as a rehabilitative balance board apparatus and in water (e. g. , a swimming pool) as a rehabilitation and/or fitness apparatus.

International Classification:

A63B 2300

US Classification:

441120

Abstract:

A water sport, fitness, exercise, life preserver, and therapy device (8) including a shortpant design with a flotation waist band (1) , and with an adjustable belt (3) to which flotation modules (10) are attached at various positions around the waist. Pockets (6A) for receiving flotation modules are distributed over the surface of the shortpant. Other material, for example, cups each with an adjustable opening, is arranged to provide adjustable resistance to motion through the water, and the belt has means to attach a tether which the user can exercise by moving to extend the tether.

Kipp K. Dye - Boston MA

International Classification:

A63B 2104
A63B 21055

US Classification:

482 55

Abstract:

A water fitness, exercise and therapy system designed with an elastic tether (17) connected via pulley assembly (16) to shoe (31). The combination provides fitness training in varying depths of water (e. g. running, swimming, and therapeutic exercises). The present invention includes an adjustable buoyancy bladder attached to or constructed within the sole of the shoe where the bladder does not extend so as to interfere with normal running motions. The user expends energy by moving through the water and by stretching the tether.

International Classification:

A63B 6912

US Classification:

482 55

Abstract:

An exercising device which includes a cuff and a mitt usable separately or together. The cuff being a body of flexible material arranged with a central opening therethrough, and including an inner surface of an elastic material to be placed against the skin of a user, an outer surface of an elastic material, the inner and outer surfaces being joined but spaced apart to form a space. There is a flexible ballast material disposed in the space between the inner and outer surfaces and an elastic material. There is a separation disposed along the body, including a strong VELCRO strap, and a flexible attachment, and there is webbing of an elastic material disposed at the inner surface and outer surface as well as an O-ring attached to the outer surface.
