A resistance training and massage apparatus simultaneously provides
resistance training and massage. A vibrating strap is formed into a loop
to extend around a body portion of a user. The strap is displaceable as
the user exerts a pulling force on the strap. A motor is coupled to the
strap and displaceable along with the strap as the user exerts a pulling
force on the strap. The motor imparts vibration to the strap. Resistance
means is coupled to the motor for elastically resisting displacement of
the motor and the strap, and providing a resistance force to the pulling
force exerted by the user.
