An indoor exercise bicycle having a magnetic brake. The magnetic brake system has a pair of parallel arms each having a set of magnets. The pair of parallel arms moves along a track in a radial direction relative to the axis of the flywheel. The pair of parallel arms move toward and away from the flywheel not via a pivoting action. Instead, the pair of parallel arms moves linearly towards and away from the flywheel.

Systems and methods for adjusting resistance on an exercise cycle having a frame and a flywheel include calibration, homing and auto-follow routines. A resistance apparatus comprising an actuator is configured to selectively position the resistance apparatus relative to the flywheel, wherein a distance between the resistance apparatus to the flywheel corresponds to resistance applied to the flywheel. Control components are configured to control operation of the resistance system in response to instructions, and a computing device is configured to output media for an exercise class to a user, the exercise class comprising one or more target resistance ranges corresponding to a segment of the exercise class. The computing device is further configured to selectively implement auto-follow logic configured to determine a target resistance value for a current segment of the exercise class and instruct the control components to adjust the resistance system to the target resistance value.

An indoor, stationary, bicycle training device that provides advantages over conventional designs of exercise bicycles is provided. The stationary bicycle may include a tilting/pivoting mechanism to orient the indoor bicycle to simulate descending or climbing. The indoor bicycle may include flexible and resilient frame elements to support the indoor training device to move side-to-side under some riding situations thereby simulating the side-to-side swaying motion of an outdoor bicycle under the same riding situations. The indoor bicycle may include several combinations of frame adjustments to provide configurable dimensions of the indoor bicycle to adjust the frame to properly fit the rider, which may be adjusted based on corresponding dimensions of a user's outdoor bicycle. Still other aspects of the stationary bicycle device may aid in creating an “outdoor” feeling while using the device.

A rowing exercise assembly includes a pair of elevation units that is each positionable at a selected point between a minimum elevation and a maximum elevation. A rowing machine is coupled between each of the elevation units thereby facilitating the rowing machine to be positionable at a variety of horizontal angles. In this way the elevation units enhance rowing exercises. A pair of cables is coupled to a resistance unit. A pair of handles is respectively coupled to the pair of cables and each of the handles may be gripped for performing the rowing exercises. A control is positioned proximate to the rowing machine and each of the elevation units is electrically coupled to the control. Moreover, the control actuates each of the elevation units to be positioned at the selected point between the minimum and maximum elevations.

A method for displaying archived exercise classes comprising displaying information about archived exercise classes that can be accessed by a first user via a computer network on a display screen at a first location, wherein the first user can select among a plurality of archived classes, outputting digital video and audio content comprising the selected archived class, detecting a performance parameter for the first user at a particular point in the selected class, displaying the performance parameter on the display screen, and displaying performance parameters from a second user at a second location on the display screen such that at least one of the performance parameters from the first user and at least one of the performance parameters from the second user at the same point in the class are presented for comparison.

A method of compiling workout information in a workout session includes, at a workout server, receiving, via a network, first login information from a first exercise device; receiving, via the network, first workout information from the first exercise device; recording the first workout information in an active workout session; receiving, via the network, second login information from a second exercise device; receiving, via the network, second workout information from the second exercise device; and recording the second workout information in the active workout session.

Embodiments herein are directed to an aquatic exercising assembly. The aquatic exercising assembly includes a container having a liquid retention portion. The liquid retention portion includes a bottom wall, a pair of opposing sidewalls, and a pair of opposing end walls, a pedal assembly and a paddle assembly. The pedal assembly is rotatably coupled to the one of the pair of opposing end walls. The paddle assembly is coupled to each one of the pair of opposing sidewalls. The paddle assembly is movable between a rearward position and a forward position in a longitudinal direction. The pedal assembly is rotatably moved by a lower body movement of a user and the paddle assembly is moved by an upper body movement of the user.

An automobile including an exercise apparatus for use by the driver while driving is described. The apparatus may integrate the user's exercise performance into control of the vehicle's speed, acceleration and braking.

A gait trainer adapted for use with a treadmill and, optionally, a spinning cycle, provides greater accessibility for therapeutic and rehabilitative gait pattern training to individuals confronting injury, illness, or disability. The gait trainer is adjustable, to accommodate a wide variety of users with different stride lengths and needs.

Systems and methods are for production, management, syndication and distribution of digital assets through a network such as the Internet or wireless network. Digital media assets are distributed to consumers through a syndicated network of Outlets under control of a central platform. Distribution is format agnostic. There is a single platform between the B2B2C, wherein a platform allows, through a single access for each stakeholder, the ability to each have control over availability dates and pricing specifications to a plurality of merchants and/or subscription outlets or channels. Subscription channels can support micro-subscriptions with diversely curated and priced offerings, including acceptance of crypto-currency. The delivered media assets may include content associated with an exercise apparatus, including content for an exercise session including computer generated content and computer augmented content created in response to exercise session data.
