Disclosed is a rehabilitation training apparatus. The rehabilitation training apparatus includes a pair of first tracks formed parallel to each other along first axis, a second track disposed on the pair of first tracks, and moving along the first axis, and formed along second axis, a hand holder disposed on the second track, and moving along the second track, and on which at least one of hand and arm of a user is held, a stopper for a track disposed on the pair of first tracks for limiting a movement range of the second track, and a stopper for a holder disposed on the second track for limiting a movement range of the second pair of first tracks, wherein the first axis and the second axis are disposed with an inclination.

Sensor data is collected from a sensor monitoring a tension generating device of an exercise machine. The sensor data is analyzed to determine whether the sensor data is within a specification. In the event the sensor data is not within the specification, an error stop mode is entered for the tension generating device.

An electric treadmill includes a motor and a motor driving circuit. The motor driving circuit is operable to control electric current flow from a positive electrode through the motor to a negative electrode to drive the motor. The motor driving circuit has a switch path connected between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The switch path has a resistance element and a switch element connected in series. When the motor driving circuit receives power, the switch element will be switched to a disconnected state, so that the resistance element is inactive. When the motor driving circuit does not receive power, the switch element will be switched to a connected state, so that the resistance element becomes a load between the positive electrode and the negative electrode for consuming power generated by the motor when the endless belt is driven to rotate by an external force.

System for mechanically assisting rehabilitation of a patient. The system includes: a manipulator having at least five degrees of freedom and defining a free end; a limb support for supporting a limb of the patient, and secured relative to the free end of the manipulator; a force sensor operatively connected to the limb support to allow measuring input forces applied by the patient; and a processor communicatively connected to the force sensor, the manipulator, and a memory store which defines a scale factor. The processor is configured to control operation of the manipulator to move the limb support, and further configured so that responsive to receiving an input force measurement from the force sensor, the processor determines an applied force as a function of the input force and the scale factor.

An exercise device and a method for its use to aid in the correction of Anterior pelvic tilt. A base has an upper support and a lower support. The base device is strapped around a user's stomach and connected to a rope. The rope passes through the user's legs and is attached to a weight holder behind the user. As the user walks forward, the weight holder is dragged along the floor and the force of the weights on the weight holder pressed the base against the user's stomach and aids in proper alignment of the pelvic region.

A rowing machine includes a handle having a first portion and a second portion that are selectively connectable. The rowing machine includes a flywheel driven by two separate cables. A first cable is connected to the first portion of the handle and a second cable is connected to the second portion. A spreader extends the width between the first portion and the second portion, allowing a user to perform kayak and canoeing exercises.

A self-climbing platform adapted to movably attach to, and hang from, a vertical structure for supporting a load with a cable connected to a main support connector comprising a retaining strap configured to surround at least a portion of the vertical structure, an adjustment lock attached to the retaining strap and a bracket. The bracket comprising an upper member connecting on one side to an adjustment bar and to a second side of a lower member to form a triangulated structure configured to a cantilevered position with respect to the vertical structure. The cable supporting the platform is connected to the bracket in a manner permitting transmission of the force required to support the self-climbing platform in a direction angled towards the vertical structure. The platform can rotate 360° around a tree or pole and can be used in forestry, civil or recreational fields.

An electric treadmill includes a motor and a motor driving circuit. The motor driving circuit is operable to control electric current flow from a positive electrode through the motor to a negative electrode to drive the motor. The motor driving circuit has a switch path connected between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The switch path has a resistance element and a switch element connected in series. When the motor driving circuit receives power from the external power source, the switch element will automatically switch to an open state so that the resistance element is inactive; and when the motor driving circuit does not receive power from the external power source, the switch element will automatically switch to an closed state so that the resistance element is operated to provide a resistive load for stopping rotation of the endless belt.

A neck exercise apparatus includes a neck lever pivotably attached to a channel member. The neck lever has a head portion in front of the channel member. The neck lever is selectively movable along the channel member and the neck lever pivots about a pivot point that is located behind the channel member. The neck lever includes a weight attachment element configured to receive incremental additions of weight.

A protective rowing device for compression of the abdomen is provided that comprises a brace and U-shaped support member that may connect to a rowing machine seat and rail.
