An exercise machine platform that allows for emulation of the natural movements of real-world modes of transportation in stationary exercise machines such as bicycles, rowing machines, elliptical machines, and treadmills. The exercise machine platform comprises a base with one or more powered lifting mechanisms, a frame supported by the lifting mechanisms of the base which allows for roll, pitch, and/or vertical displacement movements, and a rocker plate supported by the frame that allows for additional independent movement from the roll, pitch, and/or vertical displacement movements of the frame. A dampening system controls the additional independent movement between the frame and rocker plate.

Systems and methods providing statistical analytics of golf performance for coaching including text, tabular, graphic, and image-based outputs that include trends information for the golfer, all based upon actual golf play on course situations, wherein the golfer inputs shot data during play, without interrupting the flow of the game, and uploads the shot data for analytics and review online, and wherein all information related to a given user are reviewable by an authorized coach user through a web-based coach access account. The system is further operable to provide the coach user rights for providing corrective or instructive feedback to the user, including visual recommendations such as modified target areas.

Systems and methods for dynamic resistance training are provided that include the use of a dynamic force module. The dynamic force module includes an actuator and controller adapted to control the actuator according to a force profile that specifies the relationship between an operational parameter of the actuator and a measured parameter associated with a user performing an exercise. The dynamic force module is also capable of communicating with a broader network system to facilitate storing and distribution of force profiles and user profile information. The network system further includes features for, among other things, generating and managing force profiles, uploading multimedia content, and tracking user progress.

A treadmill includes a frame, an exercise deck attached to the frame, and a first handle movably attached to the frame. The first handle has a first orientation where the first handle is positioned within a region above the exercise deck and stabilized to support a user's weight during a body weight exercise, and a second orientation where the first handle is positioned away from the region above the exercise deck.

A treadmill including a frame, an exercise deck attached to the frame, and a first push-up handle attached to the frame and elevated over the exercise deck.

A bicycle simulator including a frame support portion for supporting a bicycle frame, the bicycle frame connecting front and rear wheels of the bicycle; and a base portion supporting the frame support portion. The frame support portion includes a first support bar having one end portion thereof fixed to the bicycle frame, a second support bar having one end portion thereof fixed to the base portion, and a connection portion for connecting the other end portion of the second support bar and the other end portion of the first support bar. The first support bar is connected to be rotatable about one axis with respect to the second support bar.

Lack of gravity is a cause of major health concerns for astronauts travelling or living in space. The systems, in accordance with the embodiments of the invention, provide Artificial Gravity. The users or subjects experience Artificial Gravity while exercising in an environment without gravity, such as space. Another embodiment includes chambers shielded by multilayer magnetic toroid and multilayer soft magnetic layered clothing that shields astronauts from radiation and stray magnetic fields while providing a gravitational (artificial gravity) effect.

Provided is an audio system for broadcasting running. The audio system includes: a record management unit configured to manage running records of a specific runner; a runner matching unit configured to recommend candidate matching runners belonging to the other space different from a space of the specific runner and having running records commensurate with the running record of the specific runner; a matching runner information receiving unit for receiving information about a runner selected by the specific runner as a running competitor of the specific runner from among the candidate matching runners recommended by the runner matching unit; and a running broadcasting unit for broadcasting a running situation of the specific runner in real time in comparison with one selected from a past time point and a current time point of the matching runner.

A treadmill includes a frame, an exercise deck attached to the frame, and a first handle movably attached to the frame. The first handle has a first orientation where the first handle is positioned within a region above the exercise deck and stabilized to support a user's weight during a body weight exercise, and a second orientation where the first handle is positioned away from the region above the exercise deck.
