The present disclosure provides a wind resistance type spinning bike, including a frame assembly. A fan assembly is installed at a front end of the frame assembly by a fan fixing assembly. A drive assembly is installed at a rear end of the frame assembly. The drive assembly is connected with the fan assembly by a multi-groove belt. The drive assembly may drive the fan assembly to rotate. Swing armrest assemblies are installed on two sides of the front end of the frame assembly, and are connected with the drive assembly by connecting rod assemblies. A seat cushion assembly is installed on an upper portion of the rear end of the frame assembly. By arranging the fan assembly, during operation by a user, the air flows to promote indoor air circulation, thereby enabling people to effectively persist in exercising and preventing heat stroke.

A rowing machine is disclosed. The rowing machine includes a frame including a base for contact with a support surface and a seat rail supported by the base. The rowing machine includes a seat configured to reciprocate back and forth along the seat rail. The rowing machine includes a rowing engine that includes at least one resistance mechanism rotatably coupled to the frame. The rowing machine includes at least one handle operatively connected to the at least one resistance mechanism, and a paddle linkage assembly operatively connecting the at least one handle to the at least one resistance mechanism such that rearward movement of the handle is resisted by the at least one resistance mechanism.

A weight sled for fitness training that uses a plurality of resistance mechanisms to allow for adjustment of resistance. Depending on the configuration, wheel skid or slippage control may be provided by electronic monitoring of the angular velocity of one or more wheels and electronic adjustment of the resistance of any skidding or slipping wheels, bias correction and directional control may be provided by using a plurality of resistance mechanisms via differential adjustment of the resistance of the plurality of resistance mechanisms, and differential adjustment of the resistance mechanisms may be used to manually or automatically offset a directional bias in the sled, ground surface, or the athlete's abilities to keep the sled moving in a linear motion, and to prevent wheel skid on surfaces with differing friction coefficients.

A method of and device for acquiring in-vivo images or quantitative/qualitative data (perfusion, blood flow, vascularization, contrast enhancement, selective blood supply management) of interior parts of the human body (20) is described, using an imaging system (21) and including the steps of positioning the body (20) relatively to the imaging system (21), applying a respiratory resistance device (10) to the respiratory system of the body (20), and performing an image acquisition step during or concomitantly an inhalation/inspiration/suction or exhalation/Valsalva/expiration phase, during which the body provides suction or exhalation against a resistance as provided by the respiratory resistance device (10).

A device for acclimatising at altitude comprising a breathing mask defining a confined air space when it is placed on the face of a user. The mask comprising a suction valve to let the surrounding air enter inside the confined space when breathing in; an expiration valve to let air exit with a determined resistance, so as to create an overpressurisation of air in the confined space, when breathing out; and a sensor to establish information about the pressure of the confined space behind. The acclimatisation device in addition comprises a unit for processing the pressure information configured to establish a breathing characteristic of the user and compare it to at least one target value, in view of recommending to them an adjustment of the breathing mode thereof. A method for functioning this device is also provided.

A weight sled that allows both linear and non-linear movements such that resistance training can be performed in the frontal, sagittal, and combined frontal/sagittal planes, and which allows easy movement for transportation, storage, and retrieval from storage. The weight sled uses one or more swiveling, pivoting, or omni-directional wheels that allow all or a portion of the sled to be moved laterally. The addition of wheel configurations allowing of lateral movement of all of, or a portion of, the weight sled greatly expands the utility of weight sleds because movement in any direction can be trained, whether in the sagittal body plane (forward/backward movements), the frontal body plane (lateral movements), or a combination of the two. Additionally, the plurality of wheel configurations allows for a variety of storage arrangements.

An exercise machine and a dual resistance structure combining wind resistance and magnetic resistance are disclosed. The dual resistance structure combining wind resistance and magnetic resistance includes a rotating shaft, a wind resistance unit, and a magnetic resistance unit. The wind resistance unit is disposed on the rotating shaft, and includes blades arranged annularly. Each blade has a notch recessed in an axial direction of the rotating shaft. The magnetic resistance unit includes a magnetic resistance member and a magnetic resistance wheel. The magnetic resistance wheel is disposed on the rotating shaft. The notch of each blade faces the magnetic resistance wheel to form a moving space between the magnetic resistance wheel and the notch. When the magnetic resistance member is moved relative to the magnetic resistance wheel along a radial direction of the magnetic resistance wheel, part of the magnetic resistance member is movable in the moving space.

A seated leg extension exercise station and or a seated leg curl exercise station integrated into an exercise machine comprising an indirect alignment pivot mechanism to control the motion of the user engagement ankle pads such that the user's ankles and the machine's ankle pads are aligned to move in the same arcing path throughout the exercise motion and wherein all of the components of the indirect alignment pivot mechanism are located below the top surface of the seat pad during at least a portion of the exercise motion such that there is unobstructed access to the top surface of the seat pad when the user enters and exits the machine.
