An apparatus for an exercise task includes a pneumatic arrangement, which includes a pressure source, a pneumatic controller, pneumatic transfer channels, and at least one pneumatic resistor element, which includes a pneumatic cylinder with its piston. The apparatus additionally includes a mechanical lever arm structure or another mechanical connecting structure, which is for a user's limb contact and which is at a second end connected to the pneumatic resistor element. The apparatus additionally includes a sensor structure, a calculation arrangement and a display. The sensor structure is arranged to measure at least one measurement quantity of the exercise task and, based on the measurement, the calculation arrangement is arranged to form information on the display of the apparatus, regarding the power and/or force and/or range of motion of the exercise task. In the invention, regardless of the number of pneumatic resistor elements, the sensor structure includes one pressure sensor only, and to compensate for the small number of sensors, the calculation arrangement includes a correlation-taught calculation unit, which comprises a correlation algorithm taught with a larger number of sensors than the number of sensors in the apparatus, concerning the correlation between power and/or force and/or range of motion of the exercise task and the measured information.

A multifunctional fitness system may allow for high-resistance exercises through the distribution of weight upon a frame pivoting on the ground. In particular implementations, while a user lifts one end of the frame, the opposite end pivots. The weight of another person (and/or that of conventional weighted plates) can be placed on the frame in locations yielding the desired leverage and, thus, resistance felt by the lifter. The frame may have various axes upon which it can pivot and grip points, thus offering a broad range of exercises that can be conducted. Reorienting the frame to be resting on differing sides results in additional feasible exercises. Optional integrated electronics (typically in conjunction with existing smart devices) may use kinematics and/or structural flexing to calculate felt resistance and provide automated instruction to the various users. The may also collapse into a compact, rollable configuration for easy transport.

A walking assistance apparatus includes stimulus applying means for applying a stimulus to a leg part on which a walking assistance apparatus is mounted and state detection means for detecting a supporting leg condition and a lifted leg condition of the leg part on which the walking assistance apparatus is mounted. The stimulus applying means applies a first stimulus to the leg part when the state detection means has detected that the leg part on which the walking assistance apparatus is mounted is in the lifted leg condition, and the stimulus applying means does not apply a stimulus to the leg part or applies a second stimulus that is weaker than the first stimulus when the state detection means has detected that the leg part on which the walking assistance apparatus is mounted is in the supporting leg condition.

An electric training apparatus is configured to apply, by a load motor, a load on a rotating body configured to apply a load on an exercising person, detect an exercise physiological response value of the exercising person and a number of revolutions of the rotating body, perform control for gradually increasing the load of the load motor toward a set load upper limit value so that a detection result of the exercise physiological response value of the exercising person approaches a target exercise physiological response value set in advance, and change, before an exercise or during the exercise by the exercising person, the load upper limit value in response to a control command input based on a state of the exercising person, a state of the control, and a perceived exertion scale for the exercising person.
