A wearable assistive device is suggested comprising a force transmitting interconnection arrangement interconnecting in use a left limb of a user with a right limb of a user in a force transmitting manner; and a deflection arrangement guiding in use the force transmitting member along a path close to the body of a user, the path having a length dependent on the posture of the user; wherein the deflection arrangement comprises at least one elastic element engaging at one end thereof the force transmitting interconnection in between the left limb and the right limb in a manner deflecting the force transmitting interconnection from a straight line by an amount dependent on the excursion of the elastic element.

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 walking training system and walking training machine capable of remarkably enhancing the effect of improving an independent walking function are proposed. When a subject having a lower limb functional disorder performs walking training, the degree of dependency on upper limbs can be evaluated by enabling the subject to recognize transitional reductions of a load on a holding part(s) by feeding back the transitional reductions of the load as a sense to feel them.

A multiple position adjustable exercise device includes a first plate, a second plate and an elastic member. The second plate is pivotally connected with the first plate. The elastic member is disposed between the first plate and the second plate, and when the second plate rotates relative to the first plate, the elastic member is twisted for providing an elastic recovering force. An initial position of the second plate relative to the first plate is adjustable for adjusting the elastic recovering force.

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.

An exercise management device using a hula hoop having a device for measuring spinning direction and exercise amount includes: an annular body part; a sensor unit including a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, and a gravity sensor; a hula hoop including a control unit including a MICOM for receiving and analyzing a data value detected by the sensor unit to calculate and obtain exercise information, a communication unit having a Bluetooth chip for transmitting the exercise information or the data value, and a power unit for switching on/off the control unit; and a wireless communication device having a dedicated program for receiving the exercise information or the data value transmitted from the communication unit and displaying the exercise information.

An article of apparel including an integrated fabric system, with or without strategically-placed weighting and/or elastic resistant materials, which optimizes conditioning, strengthening, endurance, enhancement, training, performance, functional longevity, benefits of daily activity, movement therapy, and/or other diverse medical and/or therapeutic uses, and, all while reducing the possibility of injury. The article enables the user to receive medical and/or therapeutic benefits and to increase production of kinetic energy, through weighted and/or elastic resistance, as required by the user's particularized needs. The user may benefit from the medical/therapeutic properties during periods of activity or inactivity. Benefits are achieved through the integration of fabrics and strategically-placed weighting and/or elastic resistance materials into the article based upon the kinetic energy created, necessitated, and/or dissipated by a specific movement(s) and/or medical or therapeutic requirements.

An exercise board includes a main body and an elastic body configured on an upper surface of the main body. The upper surface of the main body is provided with at least one cavity, the cavity at least includes a first cavity part and a second cavity part, the first cavity part is located above the second cavity part, and a diameter of the first cavity part is less than that of the second cavity part. A lower surface of the elastic body is provided with at least one protrusion connected to the cavity, the protrusion at least includes a first protrusion part and a second protrusion part, the first protrusion part is located above the second protrusion part, and shapes of the first protrusion part and the second protrusion part match with shapes of the first cavity part and second cavity part.

Wellness equipment is provided in the form of an incliner apparatus that can also serve as furniture. The incliner apparatus includes a body support structure and at least one ground engaging rocker coupled to the body support structure to support a user at a variable angular orientation or pitch in response to a position of the user on the body support structure. The incliner apparatus is configured such that the body support structure may assume a horizontal configuration when the incliner apparatus is in a state of equilibrium, and such that the body support structure may assume a declined configuration or an inclined configuration when the user lies on the body support structure with a center of gravity of the user offset from a central reference plane of the incliner apparatus.

An omnidirectional rocking chair for abdominal exercise has a rectangular support base with a convex lower support surface with variable radii of curvature. The chair back supports only the user's lower back. Rocking the chair develops outward momentum in the mass of the user's upper back, arms and head. The minimum lower support surface radius of curvature is in its central portion and the center of that curvature is above the center of gravity of the seated user and chair. The peripheral portions of the lower support surface have larger radii of curvature. The corner portions of the lower support surface have maximum radii of curvature. The effect of progressive increase in support surface radius of curvature is to increase righting moment in the rocking motion where the respective larger radii portions contact the floor. This acts to decelerate outward rocking motion in the chair seat and user's lower back in opposition to the developed outward momentum in the mass of the user's upper back, arms, and head, which engages user abdominal trunk muscles.
