Abstract

Exercise apparatuses are described herein. An example embodiment of an exercise apparatus includes a first shaft, a first frame, a first handle, a second frame, a second handle, a second shaft, and a third shaft. The first frame is attached to the first shaft. The first handle is rotatably attached to the first frame such that the first handle can rotate relative to the first frame. The second frame is attached to the first shaft. The second handle is rotatably attached to the second frame such that the second handle can rotate relative to the second frame. The second shaft is attached to the first frame and the third shaft is attached to the second frame.

Claims (48)

1. An exercise apparatus comprising:

a first shaft having a first shaft first end and a first shaft second end;

a first frame attached to the first shaft first end, the first frame having an outer ring, a first inner ring, and defining a first frame passageway, the first inner ring rotatably disposed within the outer ring;

a first handle having a handle outer ring and a handle shaft, the handle outer ring attached to the first inner ring such that the first handle is rotatably attached to the first frame, the handle shaft attached to the handle outer ring and extending across the first frame passageway;

a second frame attached to the first shaft second end, the second frame defining a second frame passageway;

a second handle rotatably attached to the second frame and extending across the second frame passageway;

a second shaft having a second shaft first end and a second shaft second end, the second shaft first end attached to the first frame; and

a third shaft having a third shaft first end and a third shaft second end, the third shaft first end attached to the second frame.

2. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first frame is releasably attached to the first shaft.

3. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second frame is releasably attached to the first shaft.

4. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first handle has 360 degrees of rotation relative to the first frame.

5. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second handle has 360 degrees of rotation relative to the second frame.

6. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first frame is moveable relative to the first shaft.

7. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first shaft has a first shaft length; and

wherein the first frame is moveable along the first shaft length.

8. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second frame is moveable relative to the first shaft.

9. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first shaft has a first shaft length; and

wherein the second frame is moveable along the first shaft length.

10. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first frame is moveable relative to the first shaft; and

wherein the second frame is moveable relative to the first shaft.

11. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second shaft is moveable relative to the first frame.

12. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second shaft has a second shaft length that extends from the second shaft first end to the second shaft second end, a second shaft first outside diameter at the second shaft first end, and a second shaft second outside diameter disposed between the second shaft first end and the second shaft second end; and

wherein the second shaft first outside diameter is less than the second shaft second outside diameter.

13. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the third shaft has a third shaft length that extends from the third shaft first end to the third shaft second end, a third shaft first outside diameter at the third shaft first end, and a third shaft second outside diameter disposed between the third shaft first end and the third shaft second end; and

wherein the third shaft first outside diameter is less than the third shaft second outside diameter.

14. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first handle partially extends across the first frame passageway.

15. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second handle partially extends across the second frame passageway.

16. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first frame has a second inner ring and a third inner ring, the first inner ring disposed between the second inner ring and the third inner ring; and

wherein the outer ring is attached to each of the second inner ring and the third inner ring.

17. The exercise apparatus of claim 16 , wherein the first frame has a plurality of ball bearings, a first set of ball bearings of the plurality of ball bearings disposed between the first inner ring and the second inner ring, a second set of ball bearings of the plurality of ball bearings disposed between the first inner ring and the third inner ring.

18. An exercise apparatus comprising:

a first shaft having a first shaft first end and a first shaft second end;

a first frame releasably attached to the first shaft first end, the first frame having an outer ring, a first inner ring, and defining a first frame passageway, the first inner ring rotatably disposed within the outer ring;

a first handle having a handle outer ring and a handle shaft, the handle outer ring attached to the first inner ring such that the first handle is rotatably attached to the first frame, the handle shaft attached to the handle outer ring and extending across the first frame passageway;

a second frame releasably attached to the first shaft second end, the second frame defining a second frame passageway;

a second handle rotatably attached to the second frame and extending across the second frame passageway;

a second shaft having a second shaft first end and a second shaft second end, the second shaft first end attached to the first frame; and

a third shaft having a third shaft first end and a third shaft second end, the third shaft first end attached to the second frame.

19. The exercise apparatus of claim 18 , wherein the first handle has 360 degrees of rotation relative to the first frame; and

wherein the second handle has 360 degrees of rotation relative to the second frame.

20. An exercise apparatus comprising:

a first shaft having a first shaft first end and a first shaft second end;
