Abstract
Embodiments herein are directed to an aquatic exercising assembly. The aquatic exercising assembly includes a container having a liquid retention portion. The liquid retention portion includes a bottom wall, a pair of opposing sidewalls, and a pair of opposing end walls, a pedal assembly and a paddle assembly. The pedal assembly is rotatably coupled to the one of the pair of opposing end walls. The paddle assembly is coupled to each one of the pair of opposing sidewalls. The paddle assembly is movable between a rearward position and a forward position in a longitudinal direction. The pedal assembly is rotatably moved by a lower body movement of a user and the paddle assembly is moved by an upper body movement of the user.
Claims18
An aquatic exercising assembly comprising:
- a container having a liquid retention portion, the liquid retention portion having:
- a bottom wall, a pair of opposing sidewalls, and a pair of opposing end walls,
- a pedal assembly rotatably coupled to the one of the pair of opposing end walls, the pedal assembly including a flywheel having a plurality of liquid receiving depressions such that when the flywheel is rotated, the plurality of liquid receiving depressions interact with a fluid provided within the liquid retention portion to provide a resistance;
- and
- a paddle assembly coupled to each one of the pair of opposing sidewalls, the paddle assembly is movable between a rearward position and a forward position in a longitudinal direction,
- wherein the pedal assembly is rotatably moved by a lower body movement of a user and the paddle assembly is moved by an upper body movement of the user.
An aquatic exercising assembly comprising:
- a container having a liquid retention portion and a plurality of ascending stairs, the liquid retention portion having:
- a bottom wall, a pair of opposing sidewalls, and a pair of opposing end walls;
- a pair of descending steps formed from one of the pair of opposing end walls;
- a pedal assembly rotatably coupled to the one of the pair of opposing end walls, the pedal assembly including a flywheel having a plurality of liquid receiving depressions such that when the flywheel is rotated, the plurality of liquid receiving depressions interact with a fluid provided within the liquid retention portion to provide a resistance;
- and
- a paddle assembly coupled to each one of the pair of opposing sidewalls, the paddle assembly is movable between a rearward position and a forward position in a longitudinal direction,
- wherein the pedal assembly is rotatably moved by a lower body movement of a user and the paddle assembly is moved by an upper body movement of the user.
A method for using an aquatic exercising assembly, the method comprising:
- entering, via a plurality of ascending stairs and a pair of descending steps, a liquid retention portion of a container;
- sitting onto a lower step of the pair of descending steps;
- positioning a pair of feet onto a pedal assembly, the pedal assembly including a flywheel having a plurality of liquid receiving depressions such that when the flywheel is rotated, the plurality of liquid receiving depressions interact with a fluid provided within the liquid retention portion to provide a resistance;
- gripping a handle portion of a paddle assembly;
- rotating the pedal assembly via the pair of feet;
- and
- moving the paddle assembly between a rearward position and a forward position in a longitudinal direction.
