The device comprises a belt (3) on which is mounted a first sensing module (4), with: a) a hitch (6) for connecting a recovery component part (7) such as a spring; b) a first movement sensing unit (8) to detect 3D movement; c) a force sensing unit (9) to detect the force exerted by the recovery component part (7) upon the hitch (6); in which the movement and force data are processed and sent wirelessly via a data transmission unit (11); and d) first means of closure (13,14), to close the belt (3) to a required dimension. Allows simultaneous and coordinated consideration of force and movement data.

A piece of exercise equipment particularly for improved strength training exercises. More particularly, the invention relates to equipment that allows the user to vary tension when performing different exercises. The present invention is specifically designed for improved exercise through the variability of a tension component for use in such exercises as the plank exercise, sit-ups, push-ups and supine pull-ups that includes a core support, a guide arm, a head support, and a foot support that work in conjunction to most optimally support the user. The core support, the head support and the foot support are all connected, supported, and elevated from the floor by a central support system.

A method of varying a dynamic resistive force during a strength training exercise includes receiving a selection of the strength training exercise from a set of available strength training exercises and obtaining exercise logic for the strength training exercise from computer memory. The exercise logic provides instructions for generating a vector that defines the dynamic resistive force provided at an end effector of a strength training apparatus during the strength training exercise. The method includes determining a real-time geometric arrangement of a plurality of cables coupled to the end effector, generating, based on the real-time geometric arrangement of the plurality of cables and the exercise logic, time-varying operating setpoints for a plurality of actuator assemblies coupled to the plurality of cables, and exerting the dynamic resistive force at the end effector by controlling the plurality of actuator assemblies in accordance with the time-varying operating setpoints.

Disclosed are example embodiments of systems and methods for exercise including an exercise machine including a multiple directional force component configured to apply a multiple directional force to an exercise machine-human body interface, the multiple directional force component further configured to provide a divergent intensity to the exercise machine-human body interface to provide the human body with a resistance during a physical exercise and an artificial intelligence (AI) component configured to control the multiple directional force component. In an example, the AI component may control the multiple directional force component based on morphological characteristics and variability of running speed parameters including at least one of stride length, stride frequency, explosive drive force, and arm drive.

Methods and devices for isolating muscle groups during exercise are provided. According to an aspect of the invention, a device includes a first strap that has a first loop shape, a second strap that has a second closed loop shape defining a fixed opening, and a third strap that has a third closed loop shape. A first portion of the first strap is affixed to or integral with the second strap, a second portion of the first strap is arranged to be movable within the fixed opening defined by the second closed loop shape, the second portion of the first strap is affixed to or integral with the third strap, and a first adjustable opening within the first loop shape is configured to be adjusted by changing a relative position of the second portion of the first strap and the fixed opening defined by the second closed loop shape.

A portable exercise device that may be arranged in a number of different orientations and positions on the body of an individual. The portable exercise device includes a resistance assembly that enables a resistance of the portable exercise device to be adjusted.

A training device having a platform for receiving at least one person; at least one anchoring point for fastening a securing means that secures the person on the training device; a vertical rotation axis Z, about which the training device can be mounted rotatably or is mounted rotatably. The anchoring point is arranged at or above the height of the buttocks region of the person, and the training device is rotatable about this rotary axis Z by means of forces acting on the platform.

An exercise weight bag is configured to be filled with a weight material, such as a granular material. In some configurations, the weight bag is sized and shaped to be received in a receptacle of a tactical-style vest. The weight bag can include a baffle that limits separation of a front panel and a rear panel. The weight bag can include one or more reinforcement panels that are more rigid than the front and rear panels to provide shape to the weight bag. The weight bag can include top and/or side adjustment features to allow for adjustment of a height and/or width of the weight bag.

A concealed weight incorporating upper body garment includes a weighted layer concealed beneath an outer layer to allow a user to obtain a fitness or anxiety related benefit while the outer layer conceals the weight, does not exhibit drooping effects from the weight, and can be made of a variety of material regardless of the weight capacity of such material. The weighted layer having weighted packets containing weighted material within. In embodiments, the weighted packets attach to or are formed from the weighted layer around a lower portion thereof. The weighted material fully fills the weighted packets to prevent shifting in an embodiment. The weighted packets form a grid pattern along the weighted layer to balance the weight in another embodiment. The garment also alternatively includes an additional lining layer affixed to the outer layer with the weighted layer and weighted packets between. The garment also having access areas to add, remove, or change out weighted packets when the packets are removably attached to the weighted layer.
