An apparatus for hand tremor stabilization including a rotatable flywheel assembly mountable to a hand of a user. The rotatable flywheel assembly includes i) a flywheel having a flywheel mass, m, and a flywheel diameter, d, and ii) a prime mover adapted to rotate the flywheel at a rotational speed, r, about a flywheel rotation axis such that the rotatable flywheel assembly generates an angular momentum having a magnitude of between about 0.05 kgm2/s and about 0.30 kgm2/s.

The present application provides a fitness resistance band. The fitness resistance band includes a handle assembly and a resistance band body, where the handle assembly includes a handle body and sleeve rings, first connecting parts are further disposed on the sleeve rings, and the resistance band body is connected to the first connecting parts. The handle assembly is provided with the handle body and the sleeve rings, the sleeve rings can rotate relative to the handle body. In use, the resistance band body can rotate together with the sleeve rings, so that relative rotation occurs between the sleeve rings and the handle body, friction between the resistance band body and the handle body is avoided, and the resistance band body is protected from wear.

A physical training system includes a belt having a belt attachment member and a first band attachment loop for an elastomeric belt. The belt attachment member is moveably positioned on the belt and at least partially encircles the belt. The belt attachment member comprises a first portion and a second portion, the first portion extending completely across a width of the belt on the outer side of the belt, and the second portion extending at least partially across the width of the belt on the inner side of the belt. The first band attachment loop is moveably connected to the belt attachment member. The elastomeric band extends through the first band attachment loop. A foot coupling includes at least one flexible strap and a second band attachment loop. The elastomeric band extends between the foot coupling and the belt attachment member.

A resistive device that enables adjustable resistance in at least one direction using an attachment system and associated eddy current braking system. The resistive device can be bench-mounted, in some embodiments, used for physical therapy caused by neuromuscular diseases, such as stroke and cerebral palsy, orthopedic disorders, general disuse, or even for overall fitness.

An exercise band including a waist band and a resistance band. The waist band is configured to be wrapped around the waist of a user and the resistance band is stretchable between an unstretched position and a stretched position. The waist band is configured to be releasably connected to the resistance band. Further, an exercise kit including a waist band and a number of resistance bands is disclosed. Each resistance bands in the exercise kit requires a different force for stretching the resistance band between the unstretched and stretched positions. Furthermore, a method for a user to exercise is disclosed. The method includes providing an exercise band, wrapping the waist band around the waist of the user, crossing the resistance band, stepping onto a portion of the resistance band, and performing squatting exercises such that the resistance band opposes the user's movement during the squatting exercise.

An exercise device includes a base member configured for engaging a mounting structure including a first surface and an oppositely arranged second surface. The first surface of the mounting structure faces towards the user and the second surface of the mounting structure is configured to engage the base member. A coupling system of the exercise device couples the base member to the mounting structure. An arm is pivotally coupled to the base member and is configured to pivot between a retracted position and an operational position. A resistance member is directly coupled to the arm and includes a control member configured to be manipulated by a portion of the user.

The described embodiments relate to systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing linear tension to multiple areas of a person to improve training and exercise. The tension can be applied by cables supplied from cable spools that are attached within a resistance assembly. The resistance assembly can be worn as a backpack during exercises, thereby providing a portable means through which tension can be provided to the body. The cables from the resistance assembly can be attached to appendages such as the wrists and legs of the person, and the tension provided by the cables can be adjustable. For instance, the tension can be made non-uniform across the body in order to improve the person's ability to maneuver in situations where there is an imbalance of force on the body.

The described embodiments relate to systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing an adjustable amount of tension to various portions of a body of a user. The tension can be exhibited by cables that extend from the body mounted device. The cables can be routed through a pulley assembly located with cables guides of the body mounted device. A user can adjust the tension of the cables using knobs located at the ends of the cable guides. The cables can terminate at bands, which can be attached to appendages of the user during training. When the user is wearing the body mounted device, a mounting plate of the body mounted device can conform to the shoulders of the user, and a separate plate of the body mounted device can be depressed against a back side of the user.

A wearable device and an exercise support method performed by the wearable device are disclosed. The exercise support method includes receiving exercise setting information associated with a lower body muscle that is selected by a user input, determining a torque profile to be applied to the wearable device based on the received exercise setting information, and operating an actuator of the wearable device based on the determined torque profile.
