Apparatus is provided for use by people exercising or conducting physical training, including but not limited to physical therapy. The apparatus presented comprises a garment or harness with multiple attachment points, spring-force resistance components which may be adjustable and reversibly attached to the garment or harness, and handles that may be reversibly attached to one or more of the spring-force resistance components. A person may use the apparatus to exercise with full range of motion and with adjustable resistance while training in free motion or while stationary, from any position or location. The apparatus allows to exercise any of a range of muscle groups, with a full or recovering range of motion, while seated, lying down, standing, or running, in any location or setting, providing a better exercise experience than prior art training devices. The present invention solves problems with the currently available means and apparatuses of exercise.

The present utility model relates to a device for the assisted exercise of the abdominal muscles. The equipment comprises a base structure, a seat for a person, a back for the torso, a fastening device for the arms, an adaptable headrest cushion and a foot rest. This configuration ensures that the physical force is exerted by the abdominal muscles and the arms. The device comprises a central rotation shaft connected to a variable-power electric motor connected to a reducer.

The aforesaid fitness shoes can be worn on the feet and the body of the fitness shoes is disposed with adjustable elastic bands, and more than one snap ring is arranged around the body of the aforesaid fitness shoes. Both ends of the elastic bands are respectively disposed with a buckle, and one end of the elastic band is connected with the snap ring on the body of the aforesaid fitness shoes through the buckle.

A piece of exercise equipment particularly for improved strength training exercises. More particularly, the invention relates to equipment that allows the user to vary tension when performing different exercises. The present invention is specifically designed for improved exercise through the variability of a tension component for use in such exercises as the plank exercise, sit-ups, push-ups and supine pull-ups that includes a core support, a guide arm, a head support, and a foot support that work in conjunction to most optimally support the user. The core support, the head support and the foot support are all connected, supported, and elevated from the floor by a central support system.

A body weight support system includes a trolley, a powered conductor operatively coupled to a power supply, and a patient attachment mechanism. The trolley can include a drive system, a control system, and a patient support system. The drive system is movably coupled to a support rail. At least a portion of the control system is physically and electrically coupled to the powered conductor. The patient support mechanism is at least temporarily coupled to the patient attachment mechanism. The control system can control at least a portion of the patient support mechanism based at least in part on a force applied to the patient attachment mechanism.

A strength and endurance training system. The system includes a first assist-resist system, which includes a first motor that is activated and deactivated by a first motor controller, a first drum coupled to the first motor, a first connecting member provided between the first drum and a coupling device which is attachable to an object/individual, and a computer system configured to use as input one or more of i) a measurement of distance of the coupling device form the first assist-resist system, ii) a predetermined strength value, and iii) a measurement of external force applied to the coupling device by the individual and thus operate the first assist-resist system in one of i) a resistive mode, wherein a resistive force is applied to the coupling device when the coupling device moves away from the first assist-resist system, ii) an assistive mode, wherein an assistive force is applied to the coupling device when the coupling device moves towards the first assist-resist system, and iii) a bypass mode, wherein a negligible force (between about 0 N-about 5 N) is applied to the coupling device.

The present invention relates to improvements in or relating to tremor stabilisation apparatus and methods, in particular to gyroscopic devices for use in controlling tremors of parts of the body and for reducing effects of tremors on the human body. The apparatus includes a wearable element and at least one gyroscopic device mounted or mountable to the wearable element, the gyroscopic device including a gyroscope and a gyroscope housing. The at least one gyroscopic device may be mounted within the housing such that the gyroscope may precess with respect to the housing. The mount may include a hinge to which the gyroscope is mounted and a hinge plate or hinge mount to which the hinge is mounted for rotation with respect to the gyroscope housing, such as a turntable mounted to the gyroscope housing. The gyroscopic devices may include a control arrangement to control the precession of the gyroscope.

The present disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus that facilitate exercise. The system may include one or more convenient, fun, easy to use and low impact exercise apparatuses. An exercise apparatus may comprise one or more physical user interface components configured to engage one or more body parts of the user. The user may perform exercises by exerting forces on individual ones of the one or more user interface components. In some implementations, gameplay may be incorporated into one or more exercises through a game interface presented to the users. Users may be coached during gameplay to perform one or more exercises such that exercise and gameplay may be seamlessly integrated.

Exercise gloves for an exercise machine including a glove assembly and an attachment assembly is disclosed. The glove assembly includes a first and second glove each having a top and bottom surface and a first and second end. The top surface is adapted to receive a hand of a user thereon. The gloves are attached together at the first end. At the second end there are a plurality of loops adapted to receive the fingers of a person therein, thereby securing the gloves to a person. Therebetween the gloves is a central tubing having at least one strap inserted therethrough each having at least one ring to attach to an exercise machine. The central tubing is secured with an inner portion. The user can secure their hands in the gloves while the gloves are attached to an exercise machine to execute various exercises to target muscles more efficiently.
