Exercise assembly for performing different rowing routines
An exercise assembly structured to perform different rowing routines characterized different rowing motions. A resistance device is movable within a chamber and is cooperatively structured therewith to resist such movement. A drive assembly includes two drive sections each independently connected in driving relation to said resistance device. A connector structure includes two connector members each attached to a handle and connected in driving relation to a different one of said drive sections. The handle is selectively movable through the plurality of different rowing motions, at least one of which results in the two drive sections concurrently driving the resistance member and being concurrently driven by the two connector members. At least one other rowing motion of the handle is defined by each drive section alternately driving the resistance member and being alternately driven by interconnected ones of said connector members.
1. An exercise assembly structured to perform different rowing routines, said exercise assembly comprising:
a housing comprising a chamber including a resistance device movably disposed therein,
said resistance device cooperatively structured with said chamber to resist rotation thereof within said chamber,
a drive assembly including two drive sections independently connected in driving relation to said resistance device;
a handle and a connector structure; said connector structure comprising at least two connector members each disposed in driving relation between said handle and a different one of said drive sections,
said handle concurrently movable with and relative to said driving assembly, through a plurality of different rowing motions,
at least one of said plurality of different rowing motions of said handle defined by said at least two drive sections concurrently connected in driving relation to said resistance device and in driven relation to interconnected ones of said at least two connector members,
at least one other of said plurality of different rowing motions of said handle defined by each of said at least two drive sections alternately connected in driving relation to said resistance member and in driven relation to interconnected ones of said connector member,
two ball joint mountings each including a cavity formed on an exterior of said housing, each of said ball joint mountings including a ball movably mounted within a corresponding one of said cavities, and
each of said balls including an opening dimensioned to allow passage of a different one of said connector members there through into said chamber.
2. The exercise assembly as recited in claim 1 further comprising a motion sensor assembly configured to detect and process said rowing motion of said handle, said motion sensor assembly structured to configure motion data associated with said processed rowing motion and said motion sensor assembly including transmission capabilities operative to transmit said motion data to a corresponding interactive display.
3. The exercise assembly as recited in claim 2 said motion data configured to replicate said rowing motion of said handle into a corresponding one of the rowing routines for visualization on the interactive display.
4. The exercise assembly as recited in claim 1 wherein each of said two connector members passes through a different one of said ball joint mountings into connected relation with a different one of drive sections.
5. The exercise assembly as recited in claim 1 where in each of said balls are disposable in and at least partially universal range of movement within a corresponding one of said cavities.
