An exercise apparatus comprises a main body with a cavity that can be selectively covered with a lid. The main body is angled to increase the range of motion of a user of the apparatus. At least a portion of the lid is selectively housed within the cavity. A smaller scale embodiment of the exercise apparatus can be utilized as a sitting apparatus that corrects posture while a user is in a seated position. A method of exercise comprises a variety of steps which can be performed by a user while the user remains on his or her back.

Exercise and sitting apparatus and method

A hunting blind includes frame formed by first and second tubular support poles into which first and second rods, respectively, are slideably received. A connector of the frame couples the first and second tubular support poles in a manner that enables those poles to pivot with respect to each other. A brace pole engages the connector. A sheet is attached to each of the first and second support poles and the first and second rods, such as by caps placed onto ends of the support poles and rods. When the rods are extended from the support poles, the sheet is held taut on the frame forming a wall held upright by the brace pole and behind which a hunter can sit. Another embodiment of the hunting blind is formed by connecting two such frames together to form an enclosure for a hunter.

A game call apparatus for imitating sounds of game upon receiving air exhaled by a user includes a mouthpiece, a reed assembly, and a secondary air member. Air is capable of entering and exiting the game call through the secondary air member, and the game call is capable of producing multiple types of game vocalizations, such as those of male deer.

A convertible winter garment converts from a cap or hat configuration to a neck gaiter, face cover, or hand warmer. The garment is a four-edged fabric with two layers such that opposing side edges of the fabric provide openings for insertion of the user's hands between the layers when the garment is used as a hand warmer. A transparent window through one layer of the garment permits observation of a mobile device held between the layers. Clips mounted along the edge opposing the longest edge can be attached to edges of the bill of a baseball cap worn by the user and anchor the garment to the baseball cap. In one embodiment, a bill having view openings is attached to the garment such that it can be used to shield the user's face from either overhead or below.

A safety and support garment that is worn by a user to assist the user in climbing a tree and then maintaining either a standing or sitting position in the tree. The garment includes a girdle with leg holes through which the user extends his or her legs and pulls the garment up around the waist. A rigid seat is secured to the girdle and is positioned around the user's lower back while the user is on the ground to provide lumbar support, and then is positioned to serve as a seat when the user is in a tree. In addition, ropes of adjustable lengths are attached to the girdle as support and safety ropes for encircling the tree while allowing the user to freely move completely around the tree. Suspenders or an additional harness may also be attached to the girdle for additional support and comfort.
