Foam exercising roller
An exercise foam roller having a plurality of elongated tube sectors where each sector has first and second longitudinal edges with at least a portion of the outer surface covered with foam and hinges interconnecting the tube sectors along their first longitudinal edges and fasteners detachably interconnecting the tube sectors along their second longitudinal edges.
1. An exercise roller, comprising,
a pair of elongated cylindrical tube halves each having,
terminal ends,
a longitudinal center section and first and second end portions,
first and second longitudinal edges,
hinge means for interconnecting the tube halves along their first longitudinal edges,
means for detachably interconnecting the tube halves along their second longitudinal edges to form a cylinder,
a smooth surface low density foam covering the longitudinal center section of each tube half, and
a higher density foam surface covering the first and second end portions of each tube half.
2. The exercise roller of claim 1 and further including semi-circular end caps disposed at the terminal ends of each tube half.
3. The exercise roller of claim 1 where the hinge means allow the cylindrical tube halves to be rotated one hundred eighty degrees with respect to each other forming adjacent similarly oriented cylindrical tube halves.
4. The exercise roller of claim 3 and further including at least one removable accessory compartment within one of the tube sectors.
5. An exercise foam roller, comprising,
a pair of elongated rigid cylindrical tube sectors, each having,
first and second terminal ends,
an integral semi-circular end-enclosure cap disposed at each of the first and second terminal ends,
first and second longitudinal edges,
an outer surface, and
foam covering at least a portion of the outer surface,
hinge means for interconnecting the tube sectors along their first longitudinal edges where the hinge means allow the cylindrical tube halves to be rotated one hundred eighty degrees with respect to each other forming adjacent similarly oriented cylindrical tube halves that when the longitudinal edges are placed on a floor the tube sectors form an exercise fulcrum,
means for detachably interconnecting the tube sectors along their second longitudinal edges to form an enclosed cylinder for the storage of exercise accessories.
6. The exercise foam roller of claim 5 and further including,
a pair of opposed arcuate arms pivotally attached to the respective first longitudinal edges of the tube halves for securing exercising accessories disposed within the interconnected tube halves.
7. An exercise roller, comprising,
first and second rigid semi-cylindrical base members, each having,
first and second coplanar longitudinal edges,
first and second terminal ends,
end-enclosing flat semi-circular caps disposed at each of the terminal ends,
hinge means for interconnecting the base members along their first longitudinal edges where the hinge means allow the base members to be rotated to a position where the first and second longitudinal edges of the first and second base members are co planar when open,
means for detachably interconnecting the base members along their second longitudinal edges to form an enclosed cylinder when closed for storage of exercise accessories.
