A gyroscopic exercise apparatus, comprising: at least one control-moment gyroscope; at least one motion sensor for sensing movement of the apparatus; at least one spindle motor for providing rotation to a rotor of the gyroscope; and, at least one reversible motor for providing rotation to at least one gimbal of the gyroscope.

The virtual reality system having interactive sensory suit and gyroscopic support is a peripheral device that interfaces with a computer generated reality system to create physical representations of the created computer generated reality. The virtual reality system having interactive sensory suit and gyroscopic support supplements the visual and audio stimuli generated provided by the computer generated reality system with tactile stimuli appropriate to the computer generated reality that is being rendered including: 1) controlling the position of the body; and 2) applying pressure against the body. The virtual reality system having interactive sensory suit and gyroscopic support comprises a gyroscope and a body suit. The participant wears the body suit while being placed within the gyroscope. The gyroscope controls the position of the participant relative to the force of gravity. The body suit: 1) applies pressure against the participant; and, 2) secures the participant within the gyroscope.

Training neck muscles in such a way as to improve responsiveness to head acceleration forces, and to help prevent concussion and/or screening subjects who are at high risk of concussion, especially from contact sports or military activities, may be accomplished by a device and/or method of training that incorporates an adjustable centripetal force about a fixed axis on the head. The centripetal force may be adjusted through varying the weight and/or length of a force arm, and neck muscle performance may be measured by a number of revolutions of the force arm completed over a set time period or a time required to complete a pre-determined number of revolutions of the force arm.

A handheld bouncing device that is vertically oriented and centrifugally balanced including: (a) an elongated, compressible axle; (b) a planar body having a balanced symmetrical shape and a central aperture, the elongated compressible axle disposed within the central aperture such that a middle section of the elongated compressible axle is rotationally coupled to the planar body, such that the elongated compressible axle protrudes from the central aperture perpendicular to a plane of the planar body.

A hand-held gyroscope toy or gyroscopic muscle conditioning device with an outer shell containing a drive assembly with a spring-loaded drive button at one end that charges and discharges the gearing inside to provide an accelerated rate of rotation to a flywheel inside the outer shell. The resulting high-speed rotation causes a gyro effect that can be employed as either a fidget-type toy or a resistance device for fine motor or muscle development.

An exercise apparatus is provided. The exercise apparatus includes a substantially round, hollow element having an exterior surface and an interior cavity, with the round, hollow element having a U-shaped cross-section, the U-shape including two distal ends. The exercise apparatus also includes at least two rims, each rim positioned about a portion of the round, hollow element at each distal end of the U-shape. A spacer member is located between each distal end of the U-shape and between the rims and at least two fasteners extend between both of the at least two rims, the fasteners providing a clamping force to the at least two rims so that the spacer member and both distal ends of the round, hollow element are fixed relative to each other.

A gyroscopic balance unit 300, may be described as an apparatus that integrates three or more gyroscopes into one unit, allowing their forces to unite in such a manner that they work together in balanced harmony. This is achieved by applying a processional propulsion method of operation, to the gyroscopic balance unit 300, to harness balance and direct it's gyroscopic forces, in such a way that they flow together and work as a team developing balance gyroscopic precession that takes a spiral path, and pushes in an overall linear direction.

A gyroscopic exercise apparatus, comprising: at least one control-moment gyroscope; at least one motion sensor for sensing movement of the apparatus; at least one spindle motor for providing rotation to a rotor of the gyroscope; and, at least one reversible motor for providing rotation to at least one gimbal of the gyroscope.

A sports training apparatus for practicing lacrosse comprising an elongate rigid member extending along a length between first and second ends, first and second stops secured to the elongate rigid member, and a slidable mass on the elongate rigid member, slidable along the elongate rigid member between the first and second stops. A kit for retrofitting a lacrosse stick for practicing lacrosse comprising first and second stops, securable to a lacrosse stick; and a slidable mass, having a passage along an axis there through. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

A rotation exercising ball structure includes two shells, two pivot seats, two holding members, a weight unit, a first housing, a second housing, and a PCB (printed circuit board). The two shells are combined together to construct a hollow ball. The weight unit includes a mandrel pivotally connected with the hollow ball, two magnets secured to the mandrel, at least one rotation member connected with the mandrel, and a weight connected with the at least one rotation member. The PCB is electrically connected with a Bluetooth transmission device which is electrically connected with a Hall sensor. When the mandrel is rotated, the Hall sensor detects rotation of the magnets and sends information of rotation of the magnets to the PCB, and the PCB processes and transmits the information to the Bluetooth transmission device.
