Abstract
An elastic resistance exerciser comprises an an elongated elastic member having a loop formed at each end, a tubular handle slidably fit onto each loop of the elastic member, and a self-locking slider having three holes; with the elastic member slidably threaded through two of the holes and terminating the end of each loop in the third hole of each slider; the slider being adjustable along the elastic member, whereby the size of the loop may be varied by moving the slider with no tension on the loop, but self-locking by the application of tension to the loop. A preferred embodiment provides a band of flexible material attached approximately to the center of the length of an elastic member having more than one elastic element.
Claims7
An elastic resistance exerciser comprising:
- an elongated elastic member formed into a loop at each end;
- a generally tubular handle threaded onto each loop of the elastic member;
- a self-locking size adjusting means, slidable along the elastic member closing each loop, in which each loop size self-locking adjusting means is a block having three holes therethrough;
- the elastic member passing slidably through a first hole, entering a first side of said block and exiting a second side, then bent back to pass slidably through a second hole from the second side to the first side of the block, then passing through a tubular handle and being formed into a loop by again entering the second side of the block, passing through a third hole, then provided with an enlargment which precludes withdrawal back through the third hole.
