Portable excercise assembly
First Claim
1. An exercise assembly structured to facilitate a user performing multiple exercises thereon, said exercise assembly comprising:
- a) a base including a plurality of base segments secured in coaxial relation to one another and collectively defining a substantially elongated linear configuration, b) a resistance assembly removably attached to said base at any one of a plurality of locations along the length of said base, c) said resistance assembly repeatedly oriented between a stressed position and a non-stressed position, and d) a gripping assembly connected to said resistance assembly and selectively positioned by the user to orient resistance assembly between said stressed and non-stressed positions.

Abstract
A portable exercise assembly structured to facilitate the performance of multiple exercises by a user, thereon and including a base and/or a mounting assembly either of which are capable of being selectively positioned between an operative position and a stored position and, when in the stored position are capable of being easily hand carried, with other associated components of the exercise assembly. When in the operative position, the base comprises a plurality of segments disposed in an end-to-end, elongated orientation. A resistance assembly comprising a plurality of resistance elements, preferably formed of an elastic material is connected to the base and/or to the mounting assembly as well as to a gripping assembly which is either attachable to various portions of the user'"'"'s body or may be at least partially gripped by the user, such that the user exerts a force thereon so as to position the plurality of elastic elements between a stressed position and a non-stressed position, thereby exerting a variable range of forces on muscle group which are intended to be exercise. The gripping assembly includes one or more gripping bars having one or more cushions mounted thereon each having a retaining member, which comfortably and removably retains engagement with various portions of the user'"'"'s body while the user selectively extends or retracts the plurality resistance elements.

30. An exercise assembly structured to facilitate a user performing multiple exercises thereon, said exercise assembly comprising:
-
a) a resistance assembly structured to be repeatedly oriented between a stressed position and a non-stressed position, b) a gripping assembly connected to said resistance assembly and selectively positioned by the user to dispose said resistance assembly between said stressed and non-stressed positions, c) a resistance assembly comprising a plurality of elongated elastic material resistance elements having a first end secured to said gripping assembly, and d) said gripping assembly comprising at least one gripping bar having an elongated configuration and comprising a plurality of cushions mounted on said bar, each od said cushions including a retaining member disposed in cooperative relation thereto, each of said retaining member structured to engage a portion of the user'"'"'s body during predetermined movement of the bar by the user. - View Dependent Claims (31, 32, 33, 34)

35. A portable exercising assembly comprising:
-
a) a base including a plurality of base segments movably connected to one another and relatively disposable into an operative position and a collapsed position, b) a first platform removably mounted on said base and dimensioned and configured to support a portion of a user'"'"'s body thereon, c) a resistance assembly removably attached to said base at a plurality of locations and disposed for orientation by the user between a stressed and a non-stressed position, and d) said resistance assembly structured to exert a variable range of forces on the user'"'"'s body dependent at least in part on the relative positions of said resistance assembly and the user'"'"'s body on said base. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63)

64. To facilitate the performance of multiple exercises thereon, a portable exercise assembly comprising:
-
a) an elongated base comprising at least two base segments. relatively disposable between an operative position and a collapsed position, b) each of said two base segments having an elongated, substantially straight line configuration and being movably connected to one another at corresponding ends thereof, c) said operative position defined by said two base segments oriented in a substantially linear, end to end alignment, d) a track assembly disposed at least in part along an exposed surface of said base and extending along at least a portion of a length thereof when said two base segments are oriented in said operative position. e) a first platform removably mounted on said base and dimensioned and configured to support a portion of a user'"'"'s body thereon, f) a trolley mounted on said track assembly and reciprocally moveable thereon along the length of said base, g) a resistance assembly removably connected to said base and disposed in accessible, manipulatable relation to the user, and h) said resistance assembly structured to exert a variable range of forces on the user'"'"'s body when oriented by the user between a stressed and a non-stressed position. - View Dependent Claims (65, 66, 67, 68, 69)
