Core muscles resistance exerciser

Abstract

A resistance exerciser aimed at working the core muscles of a human body. The exerciser comprises of a first and a second tubular force band, each force band having an upper and a lower end; a junction piece that has a first and a second groove defined within, wherein the grooves cross at the center of the junction piece in an x-pattern, thereby defining an x-junction, and wherein one of the grooves is ingrained deeper within the body of the junction piece than the other groove, and where the first force band is placed within the first groove and the second force band is placed within the second groove, thereby allowing the first and second bands to cross, minimizing the contact between the bands; a first and a second thigh sleeve, wherein the first thigh sleeve attaches to the lower end of the first force band forming a first connection point, and the second thigh sleeve attaches to the lower end of the second force band forming a second connection point; and a first and a second hand loop, wherein the first hand loop attaches to the upper end of the first force band, and the second hand loop attaches to the upper end of the second force band.

I claim:

         2 . The exerciser of  claim 1 , further comprising a pulley system, wherein the pulley system comprises of a pulley being attached at each end of the grooves so that when force is applied in any direction of the x-junction of the exerciser, the pulleys will facilitate the passage of the bands through the x-junction.  
     
     
         3 . The exerciser of  claim 2 , wherein the tubular force bands can be of variable resistance, the resistance would be dependant on the diameter size of the tubular force bands.  
     
     
         4 . The exerciser of  claim 3 , further comprising an adductor resistance force band having a first and a second end, wherein the first end of the adductor resistance force band would attach to the first connection point, and the second end of the adductor resistance force band would attach to the second connection point, and wherein the adductor resistance force band would be fixedly attached to the first and second thigh sleeves in a manner that encircles each thigh sleeve so that when force is applied to the user's thighs, the force would be distributed evenly to each thigh, and wherein at least 4 inches of the adductor resistance force band will not be attached to either the first or second thigh sleeve.  
     
     
         5 . The exerciser of  claim 4 , wherein each upper end of the tubular force bands has at least one clip so that the hand loops may be secured to the clips, thereby adjusting the length of the force bands.  
     
     
         6 . The exerciser of  claim 1 , further comprising an adductor resistance force band having a first and a second end, wherein the first end of the adductor resistance force band would attach to the first connection point, and the second end of the adductor resistance force band would attach to the second connection point, and wherein the adductor resistance force band would be fixedly attached to the first and second thigh sleeves in a manner that encircles each thigh sleeve so that when force is applied to the user's thighs, the force would be distributed evenly to each thigh, and wherein at least 4 inches of the adductor resistance force band will not be attached to either the first or second thigh sleeve.  
     
     
         7 . The exerciser of  claim 6 , further comprising a pulley system, wherein the pulley system comprises of a pulley being attached at each end of the grooves so that when force is applied in any direction of the x-junction of the exerciser, the pulleys will facilitate the passage of the bands through the x-junction.  
     
     
         8 . The exerciser of  claim 7 , wherein each upper end of the tubular force bands has at least one clip so that the hand loops may be secured to the clips, thereby adjusting the length of the force bands.  
     
     
         9 . The exerciser of  claim 8 , wherein the tubular force bands can be of variable resistance, the resistance would be dependant on the diameter size of the tubular force bands.  
     
     
         10 . The exerciser of  claim 1 , wherein each upper end of the tubular force bands has at least one clip so that the hand loops may be secured to the clips, thereby adjusting the length of the force bands.  
     
     
         11 . The exerciser of  claim 10 , further comprising a pulley system, wherein the pulley system comprises of a pulley being attached at each end of the grooves so that when force is applied in any direction of the x-junction of the exerciser, the pulleys will facilitate the passage of the bands through the x-junction.  
     
     
         12 . The exerciser of  claim 11 , further comprising an adductor resistance force band having a first and a second end, wherein the first end of the adductor resistance force band would attach to the first connection point, and the second end of the adductor resistance force band would attach to the second connection point, and wherein the adductor resistance force band would be fixedly attached to the first and second thigh sleeves in a manner that encircles each thigh sleeve so that when force is applied to the user's thighs, the force would be distributed evenly to each thigh, and wherein at least 4 inches of the adductor resistance force band will not be attached to either the first or second thigh sleeve.
