Abstract

An exercise kit includes a casing defining a cavity. A plurality of exercise devices are configured to position in the cavity of the casing. Each of the plurality of exercise devices includes a cable that is configured to extend from the exercise device between a retracted position and an extended position.

Claims (38)

1. An exercise kit, comprising:

a casing defining a cavity, and

a plurality of exercise devices configured to position in the cavity of the casing, wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices comprises:

a cable that is configured to extend from the exercise device between a retracted position and an extended position, and

a resistance device positioned in the exercise device and configured to bias the cable into the retracted position,

wherein the cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices is tensioned to restrict movement of the cable between the retracted position and the extended position,

wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices includes a tensioning mechanism to tension the respective cable, and

wherein the respective tensioning mechanism is adjustable to alter the tension on the respective cable.

2. The kit of claim 1 , wherein each cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices has a different degree of tension.

3. The kit of claim 1 , wherein any combination of the plurality of exercise devices is positionable in the cavity of the casing.

4. The kit of claim 1 , wherein the cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices extends from the casing when the exercise device is positioned in the cavity of the casing.

5. The kit of claim 4 , wherein the casing includes an opening through which the cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices extends when the exercise device is positioned in the cavity of the casing.

6. The kit of claim 4 , wherein an end of each cable extending from the casing is coupleable to an interchangeable exercise component.

7. The kit of claim 6 , wherein the interchangeable exercise component includes at least one of a bar, a loop, and a cuff.

8. The kit of claim 1 , wherein the cavity of the casing includes a plurality of slots, wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices is positionable in one of the plurality of slots.

9. An exercise kit, comprising:

a casing defining a cavity, and

a plurality of exercise devices configured to position in the cavity of the casing, wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices comprises:

a cable that is configured to extend from the exercise device between a retracted position and an extended position, and

a resistance device positioned in the exercise device and configured to bias the cable into the retracted position,

wherein the cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices is coupleable to an interchangeable exercise component, and

wherein the respective tensioning mechanism is adjustable to alter the tension on the respective cable.

10. The kit of claim 9 , wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices includes a tensioning mechanism to restrict movement of the cable between the retracted position and the extended position.

11. The kit of claim 10 , wherein each cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices has a different degree of tension.

12. The kit of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of exercise devices are interchangeable in the casing to alter a total tension when extending and retracting the interchangeable exercise component.

13. The kit of claim 12 , wherein any combination of the plurality of exercise devices is positionable in the cavity of the casing.

14. The kit of claim 9 , wherein the interchangeable exercise component includes at least one of a bar, a loop, and a cuff.

15. The kit of claim 9 , wherein the cavity of the casing includes a plurality of slots, wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices is positionable in one of the plurality of slots.

16. An exercise kit, comprising:

a casing defining a cavity, and

a plurality of exercise devices configured to position in the cavity of the casing, wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices comprises:

a cable that is configured to extend from the exercise device between a retracted position and an extended position, and

a resistance device positioned in the exercise device and configured to bias the cable into the retracted position,

wherein the cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices is coupleable to an interchangeable exercise component,

wherein the cable of each of the plurality of exercise devices extends from the casing when the exercise device is positioned in the cavity of the casing, and

wherein each of the plurality of exercise devices includes:

an opening through which the respective cable extends, and

a protective component positioned adjacent the opening and configured to guide the cable through the opening.
