Abstract

A tire-like exercise device having a substantially round outer periphery and a non-round inner periphery. The non-round inner periphery may be substantially rectangular and have one or more flat regions to provide hand and toe holds for performing various exercises. A first valve allows the firmness of the Never Tire™ exercise apparatus to be adjusted by increasing or decreasing inner air pressure. A second larger valve allows ballast, such as water or sand, to be input to the device to stabilize the apparatus against slipping and sliding.

Claims (5)

1. An inflatable tire-like exercise device, said device comprising:

a first element formed as an expandable bladder having a first substantially round outer periphery and a second non-round inner periphery of said same first element wherein a portion of said non-round inner periphery is substantially rectangular.

2. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein said non-round inner periphery includes substantially flat regions formed by undercut recesses providing hand and toe grips for performing various exercises.

3. The exercise device of claim 1 further comprising a first valve for adding and removing air to adjust a firmness of said device.

4. The exercise device of claim 3 further comprising a second valve for adding and removing ballast material.
