Provided is an apparatus for managing a player with a guard including a sensor sensing a vital information of a player to calculate an injury risk of the player to thereby manage a condition of the player, the apparatus including: a communication unit receiving the vital information from the guard and transmitting the injury risk to the guard; a memory storing a program calculating the injury risk to manage the condition of the player; and a processor connected to the communication unit and the memory to execute an operation implemented by the program, in which the program may include instructions using the vital information and pre-stored vital recovering ability data of the player to calculate the injury risk of the player.

A method includes measuring, continually or iteratively, positions of an exercise apparatus along a circuit, wherein the exercise apparatus is configured for cyclic movement along the circuit. A plurality of muscles of a user coupled to the exercise apparatus can be stimulated based on the position of the exercise apparatus. The exercise apparatus can be a cycling device or a rowing machine.

A device for performing blood flow restriction training during the day, integrated with a garment, and controllable to apply a desired compression level to a range of muscles with the intent on improving the health and fitness of a user doing normal daily activities.

A treadmill system includes a deck, an endless tread belt covering at least a portion of the deck, and a motion transducer positioned to detect movement of the tread belt. The treadmill system also includes a processor and memory where the memory includes instructions executable by the processor to receive an output of the motion transducer, determine an exercise type performed on the tread belt, and calculate an amount of work performed by a user on the tread belt based on the output of the motion transducer and the determined type of exercise.

The invention relates to a method, an exercise device and a software for measuring maximum muscle strength value. Wherein, the method for measuring the maximum muscle strength value through an exercise device with dynamically variable resistance signal-connected to an arithmetic control unit, is obtained by performing the following steps. The steps include: an obtaining original muscle strength value step, an initial muscle strength value generation step and a maximum muscle strength value generation step. The characteristic of the present invention is that the maximum muscle strength value is obtained according to the position of the exercise process, which overcomes the shortcoming of traditional technology that can only obtain a single data. Moreover, the present invention further forms a maximum muscle strength curve, whereby the obtained data can be used in fitness training to effectively improve training effects and avoid muscle injuries caused by overloading.

Portable powered stretching exosuit (PPSE) systems and methods according to various embodiments are described herein. The PPSE can be used to facilitate stretching routines for athletics, rehabilitation, or for therapeutic purposes such as maintaining mobility for DMD patients. The PPSE is comfortable, relatively easy to don and doff, and in a form factor such that the PPSE can be worn during the wearer's normal activities. The PPSE may be self-powered, and automatically perform or assist with specific stretching routines. PPSEs may be optimized for one or more specific stretches, whether for athletic performance, medical purposes or rehabilitation following surgery or injury.

Exosuit systems and methods according to various embodiments are described herein. The exosuit system can be a suit that is worn by a wearer on the outside of his or her body. It may be worn under the wearer's normal clothing, over their clothing, between layers of clothing, or may be the wearer's primary clothing itself. The exosuit may be assistive, as it physically assists the wearer in performing particular activities, or can provide other functionality such as communication to the wearer through physical expressions to the body, engagement of the environment, or capturing of information from the wearer.

The present invention relates to a method for providing virtual realistic scenes, a VR device, a system, and a nonvolatile storage medium. Virtual outdoor realistic sports scenes are generated via the VR device while a user is running motion on a treadmill apparatus. In addition, the virtual outdoor realistic sports scenes can be changed based on different motion states.

The invention describes a method and apparatus for plyometric force application to muscle with a plyometric force application element for controlling the amount of plyometric force application. Plyometric force profile and temporal variability, plyometric force intensity, control, and force direction on a 360 plane, can be applied with 360 degrees of vector possibilities of 3-dimentional space, and control of other plyometric force factors for muscle activation of muscle or a group of muscles.

As a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, a method of providing an exercise sequence includes grouping, by a grouping unit, exercise equipment in a smart gym into a plurality of exercise groups, and, by an exercise sequence generating unit, selecting at least one piece of exercise equipment belonging to each of the plurality of exercise groups and generating an exercise sequence including a use order of the at least one piece of exercise equipment and an exercise program for each of the at least one piece of exercise equipment.
