ABSTRACT:
A multifunctional exercise device is provided for use in muscle toning exercises for low impact aerobic workouts to increase the general body tone, strength and endurance. The multifunctional exercise device includes a resilient elastomeric body having a cylindrical hollow core designed to accept multifunctional and nestable hand weights for disposition in position in the cylindrical core of the resilient elastomeric body. The elastomeric body is covered with a cover of cloth or other suitable material having an opening at one end for accessing the removable weights and a multifunctional elastic strap for encircling the circumference of the multifunctional exercise device and for assisting in maintaining the detachable weights in position in the cylindrical core of the multifunctional exercise device. The novel multifunctional exercise device allows a wide variety of exercise regimens including isotonic and isokinetic exercises with both concentric and eccentric forces to be accomplished for a wide variety of muscle tone programs suitable for all age and strength groups to increase stamina, body tone and strength without the muscle damage that may occur with high impact and stress exercises.
