An apparatus for stretching and strengthening the forefoot of a user may include a pair of parallel hollow tubular leg members each having a first and second end and having a cross bore adjacent each of the first and second ends, a barrel bridging and joining the pair of leg members and positioned intermediate the first and second end of each leg member, the barrel providing a support for the arch of a user's forefoot for flexing and strengthening the forefoot over the barrel, a pair of extenders each adapted to removably attach to and extend from one of the leg members, and a removable elastic band or sleeve positionable over the leg members intermediate the first end and the barrel to hold the toes of the user's forefoot over the barrel during flexing of the forefoot.

Foot stretching and strengthening apparatus

An exercise apparatus includes a frame, first and second free pulleys, first and second handle portions, first and second frame pulleys attached to the frame, a central pulley, a pull cord, and a resistance member. The first free pulley includes a first pulley wheel and a first hub with the first pulley wheel configured to rotate in relation to the first hub. The second free pulley includes a second pulley wheel and a second hub with the second pulley wheel configured to rotate in relation to the second hub. The first and second handle portions are in mechanical communication with the first and second hubs with the pulley wheels configured to rotate relative to the handle portions. The pull cord is looped about the pulleys with the resistance member configured to resist movement of the pull cord.

An arm cord handle is disclosed that includes a flexible loop handle having a U shaped distal end and having proximal ends joined together at a common base portion. An external strap lies around and against the U shaped distal end in a storage position. The external strap has its ends fastened to the loop handle at a location spaced from the common base portion. The external strap can be deployed to an operational position away from the U shaped distal end of the flexible loop handle so that the arm cord handle is converted into a foot loop handle with the external strap positioned around a user's ankle while the U shaped distal end is positioned around the user's forefoot during exercise.

Convertible arm cord loop handle

An exercise apparatus including a frame, a carriage, a central pulley, first and second frame pulleys, a pull cord, and a locking mechanism. The frame defines a longitudinal axis. The carriage is mounted on the frame and movable along the longitudinal axis. The central pulley is attached to the carriage. The first and second frame pulleys are attached to the frame. The pull cord has first and second handle portions. The pull cord is looped about the pulleys. The central pulley is between the first and second frame pulleys along the pull cord. The first frame pulley is between the first handle portion and the central pulley along the pull cord. The second frame pulley is between the second handle portion and the central pulley along the pull cord. The locking mechanism is configured to engage the central pulley.
