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.

Some embodiments of the present specification relate to an apparatus for preventing the manipulation of exercise data, the apparatus comprising: a sensor installed in a driving unit of an exercise equipment or at a position close to the driving unit, to sense vibration associated with the exercise of a user; a storage unit for recording and storing a reference value for determining whether exercise data has been manipulated, according to an operational feature of the exercise equipment; an exercise data determining unit for determining whether the exercise data of the user has been manipulated, by comparing a vibration measurement value of the exercise equipment measured by the sensor with the reference value when driving of the exercise equipment is identified; and a control unit for performing control to receive exercise equipment information from which the user may determine a unique feature of the exercise equipment to which the user logs on, extract the reference value corresponding to the exercise equipment from the storage unit, receive a result of determining whether the exercise data of the user is normal, from the exercise data determining unit, store the received exercise data when it is determined that the exercise data is normal, and not store the exercise data when it is determined that the exercise data is abnormal.

A plurality of control sequences is stored. A user state is detected. A next control sequence associated with the user is selected from the plurality of control sequences based at least in part on the user state.

A golf bag system that includes a golf bag having a door and a plurality of inserts included on a front surface of a golf bag. The golf bag system is useful for providing an organized system and method for golf accessories to improve the game playing experience. The bag includes a golf club receiving slots around the outside of the bag. In some versions, the slots are customized to conform to a specific golf club.

A network of devices that include Workspace Fitness Devices, such as Smart Under-the-desk Bikes and Smart Desk Controllers embedded in Smart Sit-and-Stand Desks that connect or talk to one another, electronically identify individual users, track their activities, connect to a remote server database, and modify its records. Secondary devices such as smartphones, can connect to this network to remotely monitor and control the settings on the devices such as the desk's height or the required tension in the Smart Under-the-Desk Bike. The performance data captured by this network of devices can be shared to fitness tracking software or devices. By using our invention, we plan to motivate employees that sit behind the desk for numerous hours throughout the day to improve their health, productivity, and overall wellbeing.

A program is presented to a user including a stream of content including a first auditory content and a first visual content related to the workout. A context state of the user participating in the workout is determined based on information from a sensor. A responsive content is selectively added based on the context state of the user to the stream of content in a manner that avoids conflict with the stream of content.

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.

A method for managing the use of an exercise machine by multiple users for performing physical exercises involves obtaining, following an authentication procedure by a first user, a code identifying the first user and information representative of the first user; storing the obtained code identifying the first user and information representative of the first user; obtaining, following an authentication procedure performed by at least one second user, a code identifying the at least one second user and information representative of the second user; storing the obtained code identifying the at least one second user and information representative of the at least one second user; and setting the exercise machine, following a selection of either the first user or the at least one second user for performing the respective physical exercise, based on either the code identifying the first user or the code identifying the at least one second user.

A locking apparatus for an adjustable basketball goal. The locking apparatus may include a center plate, a sleeve, a first side plate, and a second side plate. The center plate may define a center plate opening. The sleeve may extend from the center plate and define a bore extending therethrough. The bore may terminate at the center plate opening, and the sleeve may further define a pair of apertures disposed opposite one another. The first side plate may extend from a first end portion of the center plate. The second side plate may extend from a second end portion of the center plate.

A system for a manual treadmill having a tread that rotates around a front axle and a rear axle and side rails on opposing sides of the tread includes a brake configured to slow rotation of at least one of the front axle or the rear axle, a controller, and a first presence sensor in communication with the controller, the first presence sensor positioned on a side rail and configured to detect a user on the side rail. The brake is not normally engaged during operation of the treadmill when the tread is moving and the first presence sensor does not detect the user on the side rail. The controller is configured to, in response to the first presence sensor subsequently detecting the user on the side rail, engage the brake.
