---------- In the early 1960s, Gert F. Kölbel used and improved Pons' device to create the Tensolator, which later became the Bullworker, a easily portable fitness device, and he designed a training program based primarily on the principle of isometric exercises. The addition of the lateral cables makes it usable for both contraction and extension movements, involving a range of motion for all the major muscle groups, in a single lightweight and compact fitness tool at an affordable price.
The American patent states that:
"The invention concerns physical exercisers, and more particularly a human-use device allowing a wide variety of physical exercises for training and strengthening the body's muscular system. One of the objectives of the invention is to provide an exercise device usable by compression, traction, and expansion. Another objective is to provide a simple and robust exercise device that is safe against accidents. Another objective is to offer an exercise device that the user can manipulate with both hands and feet and can also be leaned against the floor, wall, or ceiling of a room."
Bullworker in the 1960s
The original Bullworker consists of two telescopic spring-loaded sleeves in the center, with two handles fixed at the ends. Two opposing cables are attached to the handles at each end of the device. The device weighs about 1.8 kilograms. Exercises are performed by pushing the cylinders inward, pulling the cables outward away from the cylinders, or any variant of these. The internal spring compression creates the desired resistance. The Bullworker returns to its original position when the pressure is released. A resistance of up to 68 kilograms, or even more, is possible during the exercises.
The Bullworker exploded onto the fitness scene, gaining great popularity in Europe and the United States in the 1960s and 1970s, both because of the device's own appeal and for its relevant adaptation to the then-fashionable practice of isometric exercises.
