A gait assistance apparatus including at least one sensor configured to sense a step motion of a user, and an operator configured to determine assistance forces of a right step and a left step of the user based on step motion information of the user and adjust the assistance force for at least one of the right step or the left step of the user based on a result of proportionally adding together the assistance forces of the right step and the left step based on a variable ratio may be provided.

An ankle exerciser for exercising a user's ankles and includes a base, two pedals and two rotary units. The pedals and the rotary units are installed to the base. The rotary units are located between the base and the pedals so as to allow the pedals to be pivoted in multiple directions so as to stretch the ankles, and to keep ankles healthy.

Embodiments of an exercise device for squat training are disclosed. The exercise device disclosed herein provides users with a stable lower extremity base to help assure good motor function of the squat exercise to improve efficient flexibility, coordination, strength, and endurance development.

A motion assistance apparatus including a first support configured to support a waist of a user, a side frame connected to the first support and configured to cover at least a portion of a side of the waist, and a joint assembly connected to the side frame such that a location of the joint assembly is adjustable in a longitudinal direction of the side frame, and configured to be located at a part of a hip joint of the user is disclosed.

A muscle-strengthening passive and active motion device includes: a joint supporter supporting a body part that is bendable or stretchable with a joint region; a driver driving the joint supporter by being combined to the joint supporter; and a controller controlling the driver, wherein the controller is capable of accelerating or decelerating a driving speed of the joint supporter.

An exercise device for assisting a user in performing bodyweight exercises as well as being configured for performance of weight training cable exercises includes a frame that is configured to be detachably mounted to a doorframe. The frame includes a first door bar and a second door bar that is spaced from the first door bar and is configured for contacting the doorframe on a first side of the doorframe. The exercise device also includes a pair of door hook assemblies that are coupled to the frame and are configured to seat against a ledge of the doorframe on a second side of the doorframe for securely yet detachably mounting the frame to the doorframe. A pulley carrier assembly is detachably coupled to both the first door bar and the second door bar and includes an elongated carrier that carries a first pulley and a spaced second pulley. A cable passes along the first pulley and the second pulley and the cable has a first end and an opposing second end. The device also includes a counter-weight coupled to a first end of the cable.

A harness belt system for assisting in the performance of exercises includes at least one belt member, an adjustable belt clip on at least one of two opposing ends of the belt member, and a substantially V-shaped tether having at least a top portion coupled to the belt member and a bottom end. In some embodiments, the top end of the substantially V-shaped tether couples to the belt member and forms at least an angle with the belt member ranging from 91 degrees to 158 degrees. In some embodiments, the system is configured when in use to have the bottom end of the tether tethered to a stationary object and to have the belt member in a closed position for placement of the adjustable belt clip and belt on bent legs over a front of a user's thigh or behind the user's thigh or on a user's calves.

A lower body garment with an integrated resistance band is an apparatus that provides constant resistance for the lower body of a user throughout a workout. The apparatus includes a lower body garment and a resistance band. The lower body garment covers the lower body of the user and positions the resistance band around the thighs. The resistance band applies resistance throughout each movement and position of the legs. The lower body garment may extend to the ankles, the knees, or just above the knees. The apparatus further includes an inner left piece and an inner right piece to completely surround and enclose the legs while positioned within both the lower body garment and the resistance band. The apparatus may further include a skirt portion in order to appear as if a user is only wearing a skirt or to further accent the lower body garment.

An exercise device includes a footwear part, a brace part and at least one resistance band. The footwear part has a foot receiving portion configured to receive a front portion of a user's foot. The brace part is configured to be releasably attached to a knee area of the user. The at least one resistance band is configured to be releasably secured at opposite ends thereof to the footwear part and brace part, respectively. The exercise device can be used, among other things, for conditioning and strengthening, for aerobic exercises, and to help individuals maintain proper foot placement throughout an entire exercise and improve their form by helping them stay on their forefoot when performing an exercise dealing with brisk walking or running.

A relief system for at least partially relieving the body weight of a person includes at least one first fastening device for fastening a first end of a first support device and at least one second fastening device for fastening a second end of the first support device which are formed on a cuff, such that an equally distributed tensile force is exerted on the cuff at the first fastening device and second fastening device when the first support device is guided through a guide device during a movement of the cuff when loaded by at least part of the body weight of the person. This advantageously permits a simple connection in particular of a bedridden patient to the relief system, without the patient first having to be moved, without other medical/therapeutic devices being disturbed, and without limiting the patient's stepping/walking movement.
