A wearable exercise apparatus may include one or more of: a torso support including an abdominal frame, a chest frame, a shoulder frame, a back frame, an arm frame, a first guide, a wrist frame, a second guide, a glove, a dial rotatably connected to the chest frame, a string connected to the dial, at least partially wound around the dial, and passing through an inner space of each of the torso support and the first guide, and an elastic band having one end connected to the string and the other end connected to the wrist frame or the glove, passing through an inner space of each of the arm frame and the second guide, and extending or contracting by a tension of the string.

A grip assembly has a core having a longitudinal axis and anchor interfaces on opposite ends, an exercise band with elastic properties, one end furled around the core, and the other, loose end extending away from the core, and a keeper strap having attachment interfaces at opposite ends compatible with the anchor interfaces of the core, the attachment interfaces engaged to the ancho interfaces of the core, the keeper strap spanning the length of the core, intimately contacting the furled exercise band. The keeper strap constrains the furled exercise band from unfurling.

Techniques for providing acoustic feedback are disclosed. Several audio clips (21-23) have a synchronized beat. A sensor signal (16) received from a sensor has a sensor signal range divided by first and second thresholds (11, 12) into at least three sensor signal sub-ranges (13-15). An audio signal is output in response to the received sensor signal (16), the output audio signal comprising one or more of the audio clips. If the received sensor signal (16) exceeds the first threshold (11), at least one (21) of the one or more audio clips is discontinued and/or at least one additional audio clip (22) of the audio clips is initiated in synchronization with the one or more audio clips (21). If the received sensor signal (16) falls below the second threshold (12), at least one (21) of the one or more audio clips is discontinued and/or at least one additional audio clip (23) of the audio clips is initiated in synchronization with the one or more audio clips (21).

The present disclosure provides a resistance band apparatus which overcomes the problems traditionally associated with resistance training - time consuming resistance changes during the same exercise, time consuming adjustments between different exercises, and non-uniform resistance through the exercise motion depending on the height and limb length of the person -by incorporating multiple bands of different resistances into a single apparatus and the bands can be engaged or disengaged from contributing towards the total resistance provided during an exercise.

The present disclosure provides a resistance band apparatus which overcomes the problems traditionally associated with resistance training—time consuming resistance changes during the same exercise, time consuming adjustments between different exercises, and non-uniform resistance through the exercise motion depending on the height and limb length of the person—by incorporating multiple bands of different resistances into a single apparatus that can be engaged or disengaged from contributing towards the total resistance provided during an exercise, and which can be attached and detached at different points along the length of the apparatus to variations of fixed anchors to provide uniform tension and length for exercise motion. Both the resistances of the different bands and the points along the length of the apparatus at which they are attached are clearly indicated to facilitate easier recording of progress, as well as apparatus setup per exercise for the user.

A system for quantification of exercise and physical therapy includes an anchoring module and an electronics module. The anchoring module is removably attached to an object (e.g., a flexible resistive band) or equipped with a clamping mechanism for removably securing the object. The anchoring module also includes an anchoring-module coupling fixture. At least one of the modules includes a sensor (e.g., a force sensor) configured to generate a signal representative of a user's performance during exercise or physical therapy; a processor configured to receive signals from the force sensor; a computer storage medium storing software code and in communication with the processor, wherein the software code includes instruction for processing the signals from the force sensor to quantify the performance; and at least one electronics-module coupling fixture configured to secure the electronics module to the anchoring module coupling fixture.

In some examples, an exercise band comprising includes a main stretchable tubing defining a first lumen, a main safety cord disposed within the first lumen of the stretchable tubing, a Y-shaped cord coupled to the main safety cord at one end within the first lumen of the main stretchable tubing, at least one lasso tubing defining a second lumen, and at least one lasso safety cord disposed within the at least one lasso tubing, the at least one lasso safety cord being coupled to two ends of the Y-shaped cord within the second lumen.

Example aspects of a stretching apparatus and a method of stretching are disclosed. The stretching apparatus can comprise an elongate support bar defining a bar first end and a bar second end opposite the bar first end; and a neck stretching attachment coupled to the elongate support bar, the neck stretching attachment comprising a head strap, a chin strap, and a bar attachment, wherein each of the head strap and chin strap comprises a flexible, inelastic material, and wherein the elongate support bar engages the bar attachment between the bar first end and the bar second end.

An elongated exercise strap formed from a single polymeric strap folded over itself and sewn together at predetermined intervals to form a plurality of loops, each loop affixable to a carabiner such that the carabiner is oriented orthogonally to the strap to prevent the carabiner from abrading the skin surface of a user.

The Follow Through Fixer is a basketball shooting aid that is worn on a basketball player's shooting arm. It helps a player straighten their follow through, correct their finger spacing, and quicken their release time. The present invention also comes with a unique assembly and design that allows for a player to take the device on and off easily, allowing them to seamlessly transition from practicing with the shooting aid to playing without it.
