Activity and workout updates

The present disclosure generally relates to navigating, viewing, and sharing activity and workout data and interacting with workout and/or activity applications. In some examples, scrolling of activity data is based on the content being displayed. In some examples, friends' activity data may be viewed. In some examples, a notification and workout data for a friend's completed workout is received and displayed. In some example, the activity data received from friends is viewed and managed. In some examples, workout data for a multi-segment workout is displayed in a three-dimensional stack on a map. In some examples, a workout application operates in a limited mode until a touch input is received with a characteristic intensity that is greater than a threshold intensity.

Fitness based control of communication device
11660504 · 2023-05-30 ·

A method and system for limiting the amount of screentime available to a child device based on the activity of a user of the child device. A parent device is used to specify activity threshold(s) and associate them with an amount of screentime. A wearable activity sensor provides activity data that is converted to a screentime value. An available screentime value is decremented as screentime is used on the child device. When the available screentime value reaches zero, access to functions or apps on the child device is disabled.

LIGHTING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING SAME WITH EXERCISE AND REHABILITATION EQUIPMENT

A treadmill includes a frame and a running belt coupled to the frame. The running belt is configured to rotate relative to the frame. The treadmill includes at least one sensor configured to collect information regarding a rotation of the running belt and a use of the treadmill by a user of the treadmill. The treadmill also includes a light source coupled to the frame and configured to emit a light at least partly away from a front of the treadmill to at least partly illuminate a rear of the treadmill.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING RUNNING POWER

A system, method and computer program product for determining mechanical running power. A plurality of sensor readings is acquired from a plurality of force sensors positioned underfoot. Force values are determined for a plurality of strides using aggregate force data. The slope, a stance time and running speed are determined for each stride. The mechanical running power associated with the plurality of sensor readings is determined by inputting the force values, the slope, the stance time and the running speed to a machine learning model trained to predict the mechanical running power. The mechanical running power can then be provided to the user as feedback or stored for purposes such as later review and analysis. The inputs to the machine learning model can be determined entirely based off of sensor data received from a wearable device worn by the user.

Simulation System and Method

A simulation system in which an amateur player may obtain an assessment of how the amateur players skills compare to those of an average professional athlete or a selected professional athlete that takes into consideration the physical differences between the amateur player and the professional athlete. Measurements of an amateur player are obtained and compared to those of a professional athlete. Such comparisons are used to adjust parameters for a physical or virtual simulation that may be used to assess the abilities of amateur player relative to that of the professional athlete.

Leg Exercise Assembly
20230061525 · 2023-03-02 ·

A leg exercise assembly includes a housing that is positionable near a user's feet. A pair of foot pads is each disposed on the housing for having a respective one of the user's feet positioned upon the foot pads. A pair of roller units is each rollably integrated into the housing and each of the foot pads is coupled to a respective one of the pair of roller units for sliding the foot pads back and forth on the housing. A resistance unit is movably integrated into the housing for either increasing or decreasing the force required to move the footpads to accommodate the physical strength of the user. A calorie counter is integrated into the housing and the calorie counter counts each time the pair of roller units is moved back and forth to calculate the calories being burnt by the user.

FUNCTIONAL GARMENTS AND METHODS THEREOF

Provided herein in some embodiments is a resistance-training system including an upper-body garment having a first section of a single-layered construction and a second section of a multi-layered construction. The single-layered construction can include a first fabric layer. The multi-layered construction can include the first fabric layer, a second fabric layer, and a resistance-providing layer in-between the first fabric layer and the second fabric layer. The resistance-training system also includes a lower-body garment having the multi-layered construction, optionally with a different resistance-providing layer than the upper-body garment. The resistance-providing layer of the upper-body garment and the lower-body garment can be configured to provide resistance to one or more user movements for a user donning the resistance-training system.

COMPUTER IMPLEMENTED AMERICAN SOCCER TRAINING AND EVALUATION METHOD AND SYSTEM
20230112825 · 2023-04-13 ·

A computer-implemented American soccer training and evaluation method that includes subjecting a drilling user to predefined drilling protocol(s) of a plurality of American soccer drilling assemblies and obtain, from each pre-defined drilling protocol(s) of the plurality of American soccer drilling assemblies and from at least one sensor on each of the assemblies, at least one user physical characteristic of the drilling user. The user physical characteristic is communicated to an administrative server over a network, where it is stored and used to create a drilling user performance profile having individualized performance comparisons with respect to the at least one user physical characteristic of the drilling user and a performance benchmark. Then, the drilling user performance profile is communicated to at least one of a plurality of electronic computing devices of a plurality of consuming users for evaluation and review.

INTERACTIVE RESISTANCE BAND TRAINING SYSTEMS

Interactive/smart resistance band training systems include one or more resistance bands connected to a force sensing unit that registers the force exerted by a user on handles connected to the bands. The sensing unit operates effectively regardless of whether the user is training with one handle individually, or with two handles being pulled in parallel or non-parallel directions. The systems may correct the force readings to account for non-alignment between the force-measurement axis of the force sensing unit and the directions in which the user applies force to the resistance bands. The systems may guide a user through exercise sessions tailored to the fitness level of the user; may display the force readings, calories burned, and other performance parameters and goals on a continuous, real-time basis; may summarize the result of the exercise session; and may recommend subsequent exercise sessions based on the performance of the user.

Systems and methods for minimally intrusive displays
