An exercise treadmill is disclosed. The treadmill can include one or more sensors to acquire input data. A computer system can trigger one or more actions based on the input data. The input data can correspond to a lengthwise position of the user along a length of a usable surface of the platform and/or a lateral position of the user on the belt. The action(s) can include providing feedback to the user and/or adjusting rotation of the belt and/or a resistance of rotation of the belt. The adjustment can be performed in response to input from a user control requesting the adjustment.

The proposed apparatus and method relate to restorative sports medicine and patient rehabilitation with neurological motoric disorders. A patient is positioned in equilibrium by suspension devices for patient's body parts. The suspension devices are moved by actuating mechanisms with an electro-pneumatic drive and actuating components, controlled by a programmed computer, motivating the patient by controlling an object in a virtual gaming environment, to restore movements when there is an initially minimal or a complete absence of physical activity. The effectiveness is judged according to the reduction of energy consumption of the drives. The apparatus includes a base composed of two parallel guides with movable crossbars, on which the actuating mechanisms are pairwise movably arranged, monitoring and control units, the computer, sensors detecting the state of the actuating mechanisms, and power sources. There are units for analyzing the energy consumption of each drive and for assessing the treatment results.

A pull exercise training device has a frame body, a reel including a shaft, a rolling wheel, a driver pulley wheel and at least one mainspring, a band connected to the rolling wheel with an end, a load force device including a first axle through a flywheel and a driven pulley wheel, a one way clutch disposed between the first axle and the flywheel, a belt winding around the driver pulley wheel and the driven pulley wheel, a generator set, and a control circuit having a controller electrically connected to a resistor, an armature, and an interface for operation.

A sports training device designed for attachment to the shaft of a swinging sports apparatus, such as a golf club, tennis racket, baseball bat, hockey stick, or any other sports apparatus that is intended to be swung while playing a sport. The training device generally includes a drag panel/chute/airfoil, two (2) distinct connection points to the sports apparatus, and a support rod is disposed between the connection points substantially parallel to the shaft of the sports apparatus and to the length of the drag panel. The connection points include coupling mechanisms (e.g., pipe clips, snap clamps, etc.) that allow for 360 rotation about the sports apparatus. In use, the drag panel provides additional air resistance during the swinging of the sports apparatus.

Apparatus (10) for performing an arm curl exercise comprising: a frame (12), a seat (16), an elbow pad (19) an input arm assembly (24) interconnected to a resistance mechanism (42) and a manually graspable mechanism (30h), the seat (16) being arranged relative to the input arm assembly (24) to position the user in a user start position (USP) that enables the user to manually engage the manually graspable mechanism (30h) with a posterior surface (PSE) of the user's elbow user's elbow (13e) engaged with the engaging surface (ES) of the elbow pad (19), the input arm assembly comprising a first arm (30r) and a second arm (30f) pivotable around a first linear axis (AA).

An exercise apparatus comprising a weight stack comprised of one or more individual bodies of weight, a flexible elongated cable having a downstream portion that is interconnected to a user selectable number of the one or more individual bodies of weight that exert a first resistance and to a second resistance device that exerts a second resistance, a manually movable actuating device interconnected to a proximal end of the cable, the actuating device being manually movable by the user to exert an exercise speed, velocity, force, energy or power through the cable on the selectable number of one or more individual bodies of weight and on the second resistance device, the second resistance device exerting a second resistance that increases non-linearly with an increase in the degree of speed, velocity, force, energy or power exerted on the actuating device or on the second resistance device by the user.

A jaw-strengthening device has a first receiver that receives a first row of teeth having first and second molar sections, a first air chamber within the first receiver positioned in a first molar section of the first receiver, a second air chamber within the first receiver positioned in a second molar section of the first receiver, and an egress valve, that permits egress and prevents ingress of air, in communication with the first and second air chambers, a second receiver that receives a second row of teeth having first and second molar sections, a third air chamber within the second receiver positioned in a first molar section of the second receiver, a fourth air chamber within the second receiver positioned in a second molar section of the second receiver, and an ingress valve in communication with the third and fourth air chambers.

Disclosed is a technical training garment configured for use with modular, interchangeable electronics and resistance modules. The garment provides resistance to movement throughout an angular range of motion and tracks biomechanical parameters such as stride length, stride rate, angular velocity and incremental power expended by the wearer. The garment may be low profile, and worn by a wearer as a primary garment or beneath or over conventional clothing. Alternatively, the device may be worn as a supplemental training tool during conventional training protocols.

The present invention relates to a comprehensive fitness equipment leg press allows a user to do a weight training leg press exercise for training a lower body from 10 kg to 200 kg by sitting on a bench pushing the footrest included in the footrest frame, which moves back and forth smoothly along a central frame for adjusting weight of the footrest frame. The comprehensive fitness equipment leg press comprises a hydraulic cylinder formed on a lower end of the bench without using 15 10 kg weights and a hydraulic cylinder rod connection installed on a body of a weight adjusting bar using the principle of the lever for adjusting weight of the footrest of the footrest frame.
