The present invention relates to a multi-gym machine which enables a user to perform a plurality of different exercises for the whole body. More specifically the present invention relates specifically to a power tower machine in which the user utilizes a combination of the user body weight (calisthenics) in addition to variable elastic bands to provide additional assistance or resistance. This advanced power tower hereby disclosed incorporates an arrangement of multiple handles, various pulleys, elastic cables and steel wire connected to a special waist belt to be put on by the user. The elastic cables depending on their anchor points either from the top or the bottom pulley, generates assistance or resistance to the user respectively for the specific workout. A set of sensors, processor and Bluetooth transmission unit is integrated on the power tower to process, transmit, process and manage several workouts performance indicators via a dedicated mobile application offering a virtual coaching capabilities. Also with internet connection, the mobile application offers an IoT (Internet of Things) concept enable virtual competition with other users using the same machine and mobile application.

LOW FRICTION REHABILITATION BOARD WITH AN INTEGRAL BAND RETAINING FEATURE AND METHODS OF REHABILITATION
20200261761 · 2020-08-20 ·

A low friction rehabilitation board having an integral band retaining feature is described. The rehabilitation board may have a coefficient of static friction of no more than about 0.5 and in some embodiments no more than about 0.06. The rehabilitation board has a plurality of band retaining feature configured along one or both ends and may be an integral band retaining features being formed in the board. Additionally, the rehabilitation may include one or more band retaining features on one or both sides of the board. The unique configuration of the band retaining features enables rehabilitation method heretofore not possible with a single board. Resistance bands may be retained in the band retaining features and coupled to a user's limb, such as a foot or ankle, to resist motion, such as sliding or extending the foot along the low friction surface of the rehabilitation board.

Modular Resistance Force System Improvements
20200246655 · 2020-08-06 ·

A modular resistance force system includes one or more resistance mechanisms. Each of the one or more resistance mechanisms includes a resistance element disposed about a portion of the axle, a resistance element housing configured to house the resistance element and a resistance substance disposed between the resistance element and the resistance element housing. When the resistance element housing is selectively engaged to rotate relative to the resistance element, that rotation causes a sheering force in a resistance material that is between the fixed and rotating surfaces. Gearing allows specific resistance mechanisms to be engaged to turn with the total of engaged resistance forces creating the sum total of the resistance force created by the modular force system to provide resistance exercise to the user.

Garment

The invention relates to a garment for sports, health exercise, physiotherapy or another performance, the garment comprising a body part (BP) of the garment and one or more limb parts (L1, L2, H1, H2) of the garment which extend from the body part of the garment. The garment comprises one or more elastic reinforcements (B1, B2, B3) routed in the garment in accordance with one or more fascial lines (FL1, FL2, FL3) of a human body. The elastic reinforcements form a network, being provided both on a front side of the garment and a rear side of the garment.

Multipurpose exercise training device
20200215373 · 2020-07-09 ·

An exercise device having many advantageous features is described, including the ability to provide a user with multiple modes of training by transforming the device into different configurations. Users can exercise their cardiovascular endurance by using the device in its jump rope configuration. Users can also engage in muscular resistance training using the same device configured to one of multiple possible resistance training configurations. Resistance training configurations provide a method of suspending a user's bodyweight from an anchor point such that a user can train their muscular strength capacity by exerting themselves against the force of gravity. Resistance can be selected from nearly zero resistance to the user's full body weight, with the ability to easily adjust between exercises and between users, and the ability to easily transform the device between configurations to provide for versatility and ease-of-use. The device includes an inelastic length member with two handles and/or grips at both ends. In one embodiment, the device also includes handles that can be detached from complimentary clips located at the terminal end points of the inelastic length member such that the clips can secure to each other or to designated points on the inelastic member for the purpose of easily transforming the configuration of the device. This multipurpose, portable exercise device is compact and can be used to perform jump rope exercises or bodyweight suspension exercises. To perform jump rope exercises, users can manipulate the handles to exert a centrifugal force on the device to swing the inelastic member about their body. Users can perform bodyweight suspension exercises after securely mounting the device to an anchor point by and subsequently pulling or pushing one or both of the grips away from the anchor point.
