A treadmill includes a frame and a running belt coupled to the frame. The running belt is configured to rotate relative to the frame. The treadmill includes at least one sensor configured to collect information regarding a rotation of the running belt and a use of the treadmill by a user of the treadmill. The treadmill also includes a light source coupled to the frame and configured to emit a light at least partly away from a front of the treadmill to at least partly illuminate a rear of the treadmill.

A multi-mode athleticism movement measurement system includes an athlete-borne acceleration sensor and an athleticism processing device to determine athleticism information based upon one or more timing measurements from the athlete-borne acceleration sensor, the athleticism information corresponding to any of multiple athleticism measurement modes available on athleticism processing device and selectable by a user. A data link between the athlete-borne acceleration sensor and the athleticism rating processing device transmits the one or more timing measurements from the athlete-borne acceleration sensor to the athleticism rating processing device.

The method of reproducing a human perceptual signal comprises the steps of selecting (7) a human perceptual signal in dependency of a pace of a person (3), adapting (8) the human perceptual signal in dependency of a physical state of the person (3), and reproducing (9) the human perceptual signal. An adaptation of the human perceptual signal is limited to a certain maximum. The electronic device of the invention comprises electronic circuitry operative to perform the method of the invention. The software of the invention enables a programmable device to perform the method of the invention.

An abdominal exercise roller with a powered wheel mechanism to assist the user during the abdominal exercise routine. The invention includes utilizing sensing technology and the electronic module to control the motor and optimize the performance of the abdominal roller during the exercise routine.

An estimated goal time display system includes at least one processor; and at least one memory. The at least one processor is configured to perform the following according to a program stored in the at least one memory: first deriving that derives a pace that a user runs a distance set in advance based on exercise data obtained when the user is running; second deriving that derives an estimated goal time that the user will reach a preset goal point, a faster-pace estimated goal time that the user will reach the goal point if the user makes the pace a predetermined amount of time faster, and a slower-pace estimated goal time that the user will reach the goal point if the user makes the pace a predetermined amount of time slower; and display controlling that displays on a display the estimated goal time, the faster-pace estimated goal time and the slower-pace estimated goal time.

Using aggregate activity data to generate a grade adjusted pace model is disclosed, including: receiving a plurality of activities; selecting a portion of the plurality of activities based at least in part on recorded heart rate information associated with the plurality of activities; and generating a Grade Adjusted Pace (GAP) model based at least in part on the selected portion of the plurality of activities.

A method includes receiving electronic content via a network, the electronic content comprising an exercise class, and receiving user data associated with a user participating in the exercise class using an exercise machine. The method also includes generating an executable control for a user interface based at least in part on the user data, and providing the executable control, via a display of the exercise machine, while the user is participating in the exercise class. In such a method, the executable control is operable to modify a parameter of the exercise machine while the user is participating in the exercise class.

An assembly and method of manufacture of a radio frequency identification (RFID) assembly having a passive RFID semiconductor chip and a two sided planar antenna and a spacer composed of an electrically non-conducting foam material that is configured for non-absorbing of a substantial amount of energy at the predetermined operating frequency, the spacer having a predetermined thickness and that is configured for non-absorbing of a substantial amount of radio frequency energy at the predetermined operating frequency wherein the RFID tag assembly is configured to receive at a first side of the two sided planar antenna a first portion of the radio frequency energy as direct energy and is configured to receive at a second side of the planar antenna a second portion of the radio frequency energy as indirect energy responsive to the absorbing by the absorbing material body.

A balance station for practicing balancing exercises made up of a platform, four legs, side rails, and a front rail. Different training exercises can be implemented by using different face plates for the base platform. The balance station provides a safe environment for stability challenge individuals to practice balance exercises.
