The systems, methods, apparatuses, and articles disclosed herein provide a new approach to treatment symptoms, such as proprioceptive dysfunction and vestibular disorders, which may be caused by certain types of human ailments. According to the present disclosure, a wearable article may include one or more limb sections and a resilient member may be provided along a length of each of the one or more limb sections and configured to generate a resistance force. Adjustments to the resistance force provided by the resilient member(s) may be adjusted using cord locks. As a user wearing the wearable article moves, the resistance force is applied to the user's limbs. Strain gauges may be provided to measure the resistance force(s), which enables verification that the resilient members are sized and configured to provide an appropriate amount of resistance force to a user and may improve programs and regimens designed to treat such ailments.

The present invention relates to a body resistance physical exercise device with monitoring and fitness tracking capabilities, comprising: a) an electrical monitoring element configured to measure information relative to exercise parameters during repetitive motions performed with said device; and b) an elastomeric band adapted to enable the repetitive motions, wherein the resistance of the elastomeric band is capable of being adjusted.

A self-contained, hyperthermic conditioning unit and selectively controllable environment for exercising. The unit comprises a base portion having a bed therein and a removable cover connected to the base portion to enclose a personal compartment within the unit. One or more heating elements provide heat to the personal compartment and one more pieces of physical exercise equipment are provided within the personal compartment.

An isometric, dynamic isotonic concentric and dynamic isotonic eccentric motorized guidance exercise apparatus for human muscle development is provided. The exercise apparatus comprises a frame, an electric motor, the electric motor including an output shaft and secured to the frame, a drive guidance assembly, the drive guidance assembly secured to the frame and connected to the output shaft; at least one tactile feedback interface member, the at least one tactile feedback interface member secured to the drive guidance assembly; a weight plate, the weight plate secured to a limb of the human body, the limb positioned at the at least one tactile feedback interface member and wherein energizing the electric motor actuates the drive guidance assembly, the drive guidance assembly induces a motion in the at least one tactile feedback interface member, the limb engages the at least one tactile feedback interface member and the limb actuates the weight plate.

A sliding clip is disclosed. The clip may slide along a strap, for example on a belt. Optionally the clip includes a fastener. Optionally, the fastener may be configured to hold one or more cords, for example bungee cords. For example, the cords may fit into a channel and/or be immobilized by a pressing them with a clamp and/or a threaded knob. Optionally the positions of the cords may be adjusted and/or the fastener may be opened for replacement of the cords. Optionally the fastener is configured for one handed use. For example the parts may be retained together even when the fastener is opened. Optionally one or more clips and/or bungee cords are mounted of a belt assembly forming an exercise device.

A system and method for aiding wearers with ataxia. The system and method embodying removably positioning vibratory devices adjacent to just above each hip bone of the wearer and adjacent to each ankle of the wearer. The vibratory devices can be selectively and programmatically controlled to provide haptic signals for improving proprioception and thereby improving the gait and balance of the wearer.

Apparatus is provided for use by people exercising or conducting physical training, including but not limited to physical therapy. The apparatus presented comprises a garment or harness with multiple attachment points, spring-force resistance components which may be adjustable and reversibly attached to the garment or harness, and handles that may be reversibly attached to one or more of the spring-force resistance components. A person may use the apparatus to exercise with full range of motion and with adjustable resistance while training in free motion or while stationary, from any position or location. The apparatus allows to exercise any of a range of muscle groups, with a full or recovering range of motion, while seated, lying down, standing, or running, in any location or setting, providing a better exercise experience than prior art training devices. The present invention solves problems with the currently available means and apparatuses of exercise.

The present disclosure contemplates portable strength-training apparatus, system, and method for conducting strength-training exercises using resistance bands. The apparatus of the present disclosure can serve as an anchor while conducting strength training exercises using resistance bands. The apparatus and system of the present disclosure can allow for safe strength-training exercises at varying resistance levels while allowing exercises at any angle. The apparatus, system, and method of the present disclosure may allow a user to strength train with resistance bands throughout entire body. The apparatus and system of the present disclosure may include a base platform with base attachment mechanisms that can be coupled with resistance bands which are in turn coupled with human interface mechanisms such as grips, wraps, or bars.

A body exercise apparatus comprising: a torso band; at least one first protuberance member disposed on the torso band; an appendage band; at least one second protuberance member disposed on the appendage band; at least one first sensor associated with the torso band; at least one second sensor associated with the appendage band; at least one resistance cable having one end removably attached between the at least one first protuberance member and the at least one second protuberance member.

A traction apparatus develops a pull force through some or all the compressed joints of the ankles, the knees, the hips and the vertebrae of an individual, after the individual attaches to the ankles, or the waist, or the shoulders, a harness connected to suspended weights, and then positions self to rest supine over an inclinable, full length frictionless surface of full-width idler rollers, and inserts self's head's occipital portion into a crescent shaped hollow head restrainer which arrests the body's pull by the weights.
