Abstract

An exercise device is disclosed having a main body including a chamber formed therein and a pair of spaced apart outer hubs disposed thereon. The main body is configured to be grasped by a user. The exercise device may also include at least one containment article having a chamber formed therein and extending between the outer hubs. A displaceable component may be disposed in the chamber of at least one of the main body and the at least one containment article to provide a selected total weight to the exercise device.

Claims (27)

1. An exercise device comprising:

a main body including at least one chamber formed therein, at least a portion of the main body configured to be grasped by a user, wherein the main body has a length greater than thirty-two inches;

an end cap having an interior portion disposed within the main body and an exterior portion extending axially outwardly from the main body;

a first displaceable component disposed within the at least one chamber, wherein the first displaceable component is at least one rolling component; and

a baffle disposed within the at least one chamber of the main body to restrict a movement of the first displaceable component within the at least one chamber of the main body.

2. The exercise device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one chamber of the main body is formed in at least one end extension thereof.

3. The exercise device according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one inner hub and at least one outer hub disposed on the main body.

4. The exercise device according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one outer hub includes at least one lobe portion.

5. The exercise device according to claim 4 , further comprising at least one containment article extending between a plurality of the outer hubs.

6. The exercise device according to claim 5 , wherein the at least one containment article includes at least one chamber formed therein.

7. The exercise device according to claim 6 , wherein the at least one chamber of the at least one containment article extends along substantially an entire length thereof.

8. The exercise device according to claim 6 , further comprising a second displaceable component disposed in the at least one chamber of the containment article.

9. The exercise device according to claim 8 , wherein the second displaceable component is at least one of a flowable component, a slidable component, and a rolling component.

10. The exercise device according to claim 8 , wherein each of the containment articles includes about 0.0 pounds to about 10 pounds of the second displaceable component.

11. The exercise device according to claim 8 , further comprising a baffle disposed within the at least one chamber of the at least one containment article to restrict a movement of the second displaceable component within the at least one chamber of the at least one containment article.

12. The exercise device according to claim 8 , wherein at least one of the main body, the at least one containment article, the first displaceable component, and the second displaceable component is configured to provide visual feedback to the user of the exercise device.

13. An exercise device comprising:

a main body including a plurality of hubs disposed thereon and at least one chamber formed therein, at least a portion of the main body configured to be grasped by a user; and

at least one containment article spaced apart from the main body and extending between the hubs of the main body, the at least one containment article including at least one chamber formed therein, wherein at least one displaceable component is disposed within at least one of the at least one chamber of the main body and the at least one chamber of the at least one containment article.

14. The exercise device according to claim 13 , wherein at least one of the hubs includes at least one lobe portion.

15. The exercise device according to claim 13 , wherein the at least one displaceable component is at least one of a flowable component, a slidable component, and a rolling component.

16. The exercise device according to claim 13 , wherein at least one of the main body, the at least one containment article, and the at least one displaceable component is configured to provide visual feedback to the user of the exercise device.

17. An exercise device comprising:

a main body including a first end, a second end, a plurality of outwardly extending hubs disposed on the main body, and at least one chamber formed therein, wherein at least a portion of the main body is configured to be grasped by a user and at least one of the hubs is spaced apart from at least one of the first end and the second end of the main body; and

at least one first displaceable component disposed within the at least one chamber of the main body, wherein the at least one first displaceable component is at least one of a flowable component, a slidable component, and a rolling component.

18. The exercise device according to claim 17 , further comprising at least one containment article extending between the hubs of the main body, wherein the at least one containment article includes at least one chamber having at least one second displaceable component disposed therein.

19. The exercise device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one chamber of the main body includes only the at least one first displaceable component and air disposed therein.
