Claims8
A method of exercise comprising:
- providing a weighted element guided along a stick member wherein the weighted element is movable both up and down along the axis of stick member and the stick member is rockable within a defined invert cone of movement;
- the stick member being affixed at its bottom end to a curved rockable support;
- and,
- the curved rockable support being in a rocking guide whereby the movement of the bottom end of the stick member is restricted to the bottom of the inverted cone of movement during exercise.

A method of exercise comprising:
- providing a volumetric element that is guided along a rockable stick, wherein the volumetric element is movable both up and down along the axis of rockable stick and the rockable stick is movable within a inverted cone of movement with its bottom end at the narrow portion of the inverted cone;
- providing a resistance between the rockable stick and the volumetric element to increase the resistance to movement of the volumetric element along or about the rockable stick;
