An exercise wheel having a central shaft with counter locking handles is described. The device is adapted to enable rapid assembly and disassembly of the exercise wheel for and compactness. The device takes up the least amount of space as possible to carry on a person or in a small container, such as a gym bag, brief case, and the like. To this effect, the device contemplates at least one wheel mounted on an elongated, rigid, shaft adapted to extend through a central opening in the wheel to allow the wheel to rotate on the shaft. The shaft is adapted to receive a removable handle at each opposite ends of the shaft. The handles are configured to engage the shaft and lock in place while permitting the wheel to rotate on the shaft.

What is claimed is: 1. A portable exercise device, comprising: at least one wheel; an axle mounted centrally for and through said wheel about which said wheel rotates, said axle having a first end and a second end, wherein a first groove, parallel to the longitudinal axis of said axle, is shaped into said axle at said first end, and a second groove, parallel to the longitudinal axis of said axle, is shaped into said axle at said second end; and a pair of handle grips having a generally hollow interior each said handle grip comprising a pin extending into the interior of said handle grip, said pin being sized and configured to engage said first or second groove, and wherein each said first and second groove further includes two grooved branches shaped into said axle, substantially perpendicular to and connected to each said first and second groove, said two grooved branches being spaced sufficiently such that, when two wheels are mounted on said axle, said pin in said handle grip can engage in one of said two grooved branches. 2. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein said axle is removable from said wheel. 3. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein said wheel has a diameter of between about 5 and about 10 inches. 4. The exercise device of claim 3 wherein said wheel has a diameter of between about 7 and about 8 inches. 5. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein said wheel has a rim, and a separate rubber-like resilient tread member mounted on the rim. 6. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein each said grooved branch extends approximately 180° around said axle. 7. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein the grooved branches on the first end of said axle extends in the opposite direction of the grooved branches on the second end of said axle. 8. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein each of said handle grips is cylindrical in shape. 9. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein each of said handle grips is sized and configured to slide onto said axle. 10. The exercise device of claim 1 further comprising: a sleeve slidably engaged with said axle and free to rotate on said axle, said sleeve being placed between two wheels mounted on said axle. 11. The exercise device of claim 1 wherein each of said handle grips is open on both ends.
