Arm Supination and pronation exercise and resistance training equipment with weight system

Abstract

The Arm Supination and Pronation exercise machine provides a unique solution to build, condition and rehabilitate muscles in the wrist, arm, shoulder and chest. While most existing machines provide flexion of the arm, supination provides a needed exercise to further strengthen and condition arm muscles. The equipment is designed for people to perform a series of exercises that stimulate the growth and rehabilitation of arm muscles. The unique design accommodates a novice or professional fitness person by allowing variable tension points and weights. The apparatus is designed to accommodate various types and sizes of people's bodies. The unique core that mounts on to different bases allows for multiple exercises and meets the needs of a variety of customers. These customers include but are not limited to the fitness industry gyms, rehabilitation centers, sports centers and home gym users—providing an industrial built solution for many exercisers or a portable, compact solution for limited use and space.

1 . A method for exercising a body part comprising:

         2 . The method in  claim 1 , wherein the body part is selected from a group consisting of hand, arm, wrist, forearm, bicep, shoulder, chest, and a combination thereof. 
     
     
         3 . The method in  claim 2 , wherein the upper arm and forearm are at 90 degree angle applies considerably more tension on arm and forearm. 
     
     
         4 . The method in  claim 2 , wherein the arm straightening to apply more tension toward upper arm, shoulder, and chest. 
     
     
         5 . The method in  claim 2  which uses varying degrees of angle of the grasping bar to accommodate a users current strength and rehabilitation needs increases the tension during the exercise or spin movement. 
     
     
         6 . The method in  claim 2  which rehabilitates muscles, tendons, and ligaments allowing for light or no weights to a heavier weight for muscle builders. 
     
     
         7 . The weight of  claim 6  is increased by adding additional weight plates. 
     
     
         8 . The method in  claim 2 , wherein the increase in weights and repetitive use aid in the rehabilitation of muscles, tendons, and ligaments. 
     
     
         9 . The method in  claim 2 , wherein the exercise is conducted in a group consisting of seating position, standing position, and a combination thereof. 
     
     
         10 . The method in  claim 2 , wherein a user grasps the handle spinning the grasping bar module which rotates and lifts the weights. 
     
     
         11 . An exercising apparatus using said method comprising:
 (a) an arm supination element;   (b) an arm pronation element;   (c) an arm rotation element;   (d) at least one twist of the hand to build, condition and rehabilitate muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the hand, wrist, arm, shoulder and chest.   
     
     
         12 . The apparatus of  claim 11  is adjustable to accommodate a user with varying heights and arm lengths. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the arm supination and pronation exercise apparatus provide a unique solution to build, condition and rehabilitate muscles in the hand, wrist, arm, shoulder and chest. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the arm supination and pronation exercise apparatus is inserted to a seated base for sitting exercises. 
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the arm supination and rotation exercise apparatus is inserted in a floor base for standing exercises. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the arm supination and rotation exercise apparatus comprising a clamp assembly for attachment to metal bars and other solid surfaces for standing exercises.
