Door-frame mounted exercise strap

Abstract

The present invention provides a door-frame-mountable exercise strap, which includes a strap having a first connecting end and a second end, and a plurality of anchors. Said first connecting end is adapted to be connected to a piece of exercise equipment and the plurality of anchors are spaced along the exercise strap between said first connecting end and said second end. An exercise device is secured to the connecting end of the strap. The exercise device includes a plurality of elastic resistance tubes, each of said resistance tubes having a first end and a second clasp end. The first end of each of the resistance tubes is secured to the first connecting end of the strap. The second clasp-end of each of the resistance tubes is secured to a clasp, and each of said clasps is releasably attachable to an exercise handle.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A door-frame-mountable exercise strap, including a strap having a first connecting end and a second end and a plurality of anchors; wherein said first connecting end is adapted to be connected to a piece of exercise equipment and said plurality of anchors are spaced along the exercise strap between said first connecting end and said second end, each of said anchors being separated from the next closest anchor by a minimum distance of 4 cm; and wherein each of said anchors is of adequate thickness, such that the anchor cannot fit between a door and a door-frame when the door is closed on the exercise strap. 
     
     
         2 . A door-frame-mountable exercise strap as set forth in  claim 1  wherein each of said anchors comprises a bulbous solid object secured to said strap. 
     
     
         3 . A door-frame-mountable exercise strap as set forth in  claim 1  wherein each of said anchors has its own respective corresponding identification. 
     
     
         4 . A door-frame-mountable exercise strap as set forth in  claim 1  wherein the second end of said strap includes a warning such that others are alerted that the exercise device is in use, and the door should not be opened. 
     
     
         5 . A door-frame-mountable exercise strap as set forth in  claim 1  wherein said exercise device includes a plurality of elastic resistance tubes, each of said resistance tubes having a first end and a second clasp end; said first end of each of the resistance tubes secured to the first connecting end of said strap, and the second clasp-end of each of the resistance tubes is secured to a clasp; wherein each of said clasps is releasably attachable to an exercise handle. 
     
     
         6 . A door-frame-mountable exercise strap as set forth in  claim 5  wherein each of said elastic resistance tubes has a different resistance strength, such that by selecting which and how many of said resistance tubes are attached to the exercise handle, a user can vary the resistance provided by the exercise device.
