Exercise apparatus
An improved exercise equipment including a stationary exercise apparatus, a lever arm pivotably biased about a pivot axis, and a support for supporting the lever arm above the stationary exercise apparatus. The pivot axis extends substantially in a vertical direction. The stationary exercise apparatus is of a type to cause the legs of a user to scissor as the user operates the stationary exercise apparatus. In an exemplary embodiment, the stationary exercise apparatus is a treadmill.
Gait trainer attachment
A gait trainer attachment adapted for use with exercise equipment and a method for using the gait trainer attachment. Embodiments of the gait trainer attachment include a frame, a leg brace, and a compromised limb gait system. The compromised limb gait system attaches the leg brace to the frame and is configured to guide a limb of a user through a simulated gait motion. In aspects, the gait trainer attachment gives an amputee user the ability to use ordinary exercise equipment for rehabilitation and endurance training by providing a leg brace for the compromised limb, a frame designed to attach to exercise equipment, and a connection between the leg brace and frame that guides the compromised limb, thus allowing the user to maintain a biomechanically proper walking motion while exercising.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TARGETED NEUROLOGICAL THERAPY USING BRAINWAVE ENTRAINMENT
A system and method for brainwave entrainment therapy that allows for targeted treatment of particular areas of the brain, particular neurological functions, particular neurological states, and combinations of areas, functions, and states. The system and method receive a neurological assessment identifying areas of the brain or neurological functions to be treated, select one or more treatment modalities and frequencies, select a treatment regimen, and apply brainwave entrainment using the modalities, frequencies and regimen while the subject engages in dual-task activities selected to stimulate the areas of the brain, neurological functions, or neurological states to be treated, enhanced, or altered.
Upper leg and hip exercise method and device to preserve knee and ankle joint while exercising
The present invention includes an arm; a leg pad; a long rectangle shaped seat; a seat angle fixing unit on the seat, for adjusting the angle between the seat and the leg pad (when viewed from above) according to his/her purpose so that the seat can be adjusted to be perpendicular or parallel to the leg pad when viewed from above; and thus the to the user is allowed to move the exercising leg of the user to the back of the user or perform a motion for stretching his/her back straight from a starting pose at which the user lie down on his/her back placed on the seat, wherein the leg pad is placed above the user's pelvis.
System and method for evaluation, detection, conditioning, and treatment of neurological functioning and conditions
A system and method for evaluation, detection, conditioning, and treatment of neurological functioning and conditions which uses data obtained while a person is engaged in simultaneously in a range of primary physical tasks combined with defined types of associative activity, such as listening, reading, speaking, mathematics, logic puzzles, navigation of a virtual environment, recall of past stimuli, etc. The data from the physical and associative activities are combined to generate a composite functioning score visualization indicating the relative functioning of areas aspects of neurological functioning; including those in which deficiencies may be present, which are early indicators of possible neurological conditions. Through algorithmic recommendations combined with expert and user input, a conditioning regimen targeting neurological aspects of interest paired with periodic testing allows the user to track their progress in these areas over time.
CABLE REFORMER
The present disclosure describes an exercise device including a first base and a second base. The first base includes a pair of support handles rotatably connected to the first base, a pair of cable arms rotatably connected to the first base, wherein the pair of cable arms include a first engagement mechanism, an electronic resistance device connected to a pair of cable handles via a pair of cables that pass through a pair of channels defined by the pair of cable arms; and a seat. The second base includes a beam affixed to and connecting the first base and the second base. The beam includes a track, a backrest carriage that is slidably engaged with the track and includes a second and third engagement mechanism, and a backrest rotatably connected to an end of the backrest carriage.
Exercise Bike
An exercise bike includes a frame, a rotor assembly and a drive assembly mounted on the frame, where the drive assembly is configured to drive rotation of the rotor assembly, and a cover configured to at least partially cover the rotor assembly. The components of the drive assembly and the rotor assembly include structures that improve the performance of the exercise bike, including but not limited to a strong and rigid construction and improvements in belt tracking, user feel, effort consistency, synchronization, and rotor performance.
DAP Platform, Integrated Lifts, System and Related Devices and Methods
A support platform for retaining a DAP system inflatable enclosure is provided that includes a top cover including a support surface defining a truncated access opening, a bottom cover including a panel, and a plurality of side covers each including a panel, in which the top, bottom and side covers are connected to form an airtight platform defining an interior for retaining an exercise device. A base opening of the enclosure can be secured at a perimeter region of the access opening above the exercise device. The platform further includes an exercise device upper interface for securing the support surface to an upper region of the exercise device, a lower interface for securing a lower region of the exercise device to the bottom cover or ground, and a blower interface for forming an airtight connection with a blower. The truncated access opening limits pneumatic forces secured by the exercise device.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NEUROLOGICAL FUNCTION ANALYSIS AND TREATMENT USING VIRTUAL REALITY SYSTEMS
A system and method for providing neurological function analysis and treatment to a person using virtual reality systems. The system and methods comprise a data capture system that receives, fuses, and integrates sensor data from various sensors, a virtual reality engine which uses the integrated sensor information to generate an environmental model and a tracking model, and a therapeutic engine which can assess both the cognitive and physical condition the person, determine a training regime based on the assessment, and apply therapies while the person is engaged in a virtual reality environment. The training regimen can comprise brainwave entrainment and/or dual-task stimulation via virtual elements. In some embodiments, a medical professional may engage with the person in the virtual reality environment.
Seat assembly system and methods
A seat assembly for adjustably connecting a seat to a seat post is provided. The seat assembly may include a slider configured to slide along the seat post and including an open end, a cam connected to the slider and movable between a first position and a second position, and a saddle shaft connected to the slider for connection with the seat. The first position may compress the open end of the slider to secure the slider to the seat post. The second position may allow the open end to expand to release the slider from the seat post and allow positioning of the slider along the seat post.
