Most of the traditional weight training equipment uses multiple weights to provide the resistance required for training. Users can choose an appropriate number of weights according to their own physical fitness, and then perform training by moving the weights. However, most of this traditional weight training equipment only includes 10 to 20 weight blocks, and each weight block weighs 5 pounds, so it can only provide a limited number of weight training segments; in addition, the faster the user operates, the faster the weight moves. Faster, the greater the inertia suffered by the user when the return stroke descends, this will easily cause sports injuries.

Furthermore, when training with such traditional weight training equipment, the weight force on the entire pull stroke is the same as that on the return stroke, but usually the muscle strength performance of the muscles during eccentric contraction (return stroke) and concentric contraction (pull stroke) is different. Different, so it also highlights the shortcoming that this kind of traditional weight training equipment cannot optimize the training process.

detailed description

As used herein, the word "and/or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. When the statement "at least one of" precedes a list of elements, it modifies the entire list element and not the individual elements of the list.

Referring to FIG. 1 , it is a schematic block diagram of a fitness training resistance system according to the present invention. In the figure, the fitness training resistance system includes a non-segment fitness equipment 10 and a data transmission device 20 . The continuous fitness equipment 10 may include a control unit 11 , a storage unit 12 , a continuous resistance source 13 , a user operating element 14 and an operation interface 19 . The storage unit 12 stores personal training parameters 121 , exercise programs 122 , software applications 125 and training results 126 . The operation interface 19 is for the user to set personal training parameters 121 , and the control unit 11 can execute a software application program 125 to display exercise information through the operation interface 19 .

The data transmission device 20 is used to connect to the remote device 30 , and the control unit 11 can selectively download the personal training parameters 121 from the remote device 30 or upload the personal training parameters 121 to the remote device 30 through the data transmission device 20 .

The control unit 11 executes the exercise program 122 to control the stepless resistance source 13 according to the personal training parameters 121 to apply resistance to the user's operation element 14 for the user to exercise. Preferably, the data transmission device 20 can be built in the segmentless fitness equipment 10, and the data transmission device 20 and the control unit 11 can be realized by a processor or a microcontroller with a program execution function; or, the control unit 11 It can be a built-in processor or microcontroller of the stepless fitness equipment 10, and the data transmission device 20 can be a computer outside the stepless fitness equipment 10, which is electrically connected to the control unit 11 of the stepless fitness equipment 10. The advantage of this embodiment is that a computer can be used to manage multiple non-segment fitness equipment 10 .

The detection unit 18 is used for detecting the position, speed or acceleration of the user operation element 14 . The exercise program 122 has a preset resistance setting function 123 and an adjustable parameter 124 relative to the position, speed or acceleration of the user operating element 14 . The relative relationship can be a linear relationship, a nonlinear relationship or a functional relationship, and the user can set the above-mentioned relative relationship through the operation interface 19 . When the control unit 11 starts to execute the exercise program 122, what the user feels is a preset resistance, and when the user operation element 14 is subsequently operated, the stepless resistance source 13 is based on the detected position, speed or acceleration And adjustable parameter 124, dynamic change resistance.

For example, the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 can be muscle training equipment, and the non-segmented resistance source 13 is an electric actuator, such as a motor. The user operating element 14 may include at least one pull cord and at least one handle, one end of the draw cord is connected to the handle, and the other end may be connected to a continuous resistance source 13, such as a motor, and the motor may output torque to the draw cord to Creates resistance so the user can move repeatedly by pulling on the handle for fitness.

In this embodiment, the user can first select the exercise mode, or download the personal training parameters 121, which have different corresponding resistance setting value distributions, and then during the fitness process, the detection unit 18 detects the position of the drawstring, For speed or acceleration, the control unit 11 multiplies the detected position, speed or acceleration by the adjustable parameter 124 to obtain the value of the feedback compensation force, and then controls the output torque of the motor according to the value of the feedback compensation force.

For example, if the relative relationship is a reverse linear relationship, and the user sets the adjustable parameter 124, such as the K value shown in FIG. The acceleration is multiplied by the K value set by the user to obtain the value of the feedback compensation force, and the output torque of the motor is adjusted accordingly to optimize training and avoid injuries.

When operating traditional weight training equipment, the faster the user pulls the rope, the faster the weight block will move, and the greater the inertia the user will experience when the return journey descends, it will easily cause sports injuries to the user. The non-segmented resistance source 13 of the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 of the present invention can dynamically adjust the resistance along with the user's training action, so as to prevent the user from being injured due to inertial force during the exercise process.

Muscle strength of the limbs of the human body is different during eccentric contraction (return stroke) and concentric contraction (pull stroke). Therefore, traditional weight training equipment provides the same strength during the pull stroke and return stroke, and it is easy to cause the user's muscles to stretch. hurt. In one embodiment, the stepless resistance source 13 of the stepless fitness equipment 10 of the present invention can dynamically adjust the applied force to the user's operating element 14 along with the user's training action, and output the force respectively in the pulling stroke and the returning stroke. There are different resistances to avoid muscle strain during the fitness process.

In the course of fitness movements, multiple muscle groups are usually involved, and the force requirements of each muscle group vary. Traditional weight training equipment can only provide the same force throughout the movement process, which is not optimized for muscle training and is prone to injury to the user. In one embodiment, the non-segmented resistance source 13 of the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 of the present invention can dynamically adjust the resistance during the exercise, so as to optimize muscle training and avoid injury to the user.

Each user's dominant hand is different, and the muscles on the left and right sides often develop differently. In one embodiment, the non-segmented resistance source 13 of the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 of the present invention can set different resistances for the left and right sides of the user's operating element 14 to train the balanced development of muscle strength.

To give another example, the stepless fitness equipment 10 can be aerobic training equipment, such as a flywheel device, then the user operating elements 14 can include pedals and wheels, and the user can step on the pedals to turn the wheels, while the stepless resistance source 13 exerts resistance to the rotation of the running wheel, thereby allowing the user to exercise. And the stepless resistance source 13 can dynamically adjust the applied resistance.

It should be noted that the technical feature of the present invention is to improve the personal setting of the operation of the stepless fitness equipment and to dynamically adjust the resistance during the user's fitness process, rather than to improve the structure of the stepless fitness equipment, so Details about the structure of the stepless fitness equipment will not be repeated. In addition, the present invention is not limited to the examples of the above-mentioned continuous fitness equipment, and any continuous fitness equipment that allows users to set fitness parameters falls within the protection scope of the present invention.

From the above content, it can be understood that the resistance output of the stepless resistance source 13 can change dynamically with time, and can also output different resistances to the operation of the left and right hands, and the resistance can also be fine-tuned during the same action process, that is, if the user wants For the best fitness effect and experience, many training parameters need to be set, which is quite inconvenient for users.

Therefore, an advantage of the present invention is that the training parameters required for the operation of the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 are downloaded from the remote device 30 , thereby effectively improving the convenience of using the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 . The remote device 30 can be a cloud server or a user's mobile phone, and the data transmission device 20 can be a networked device (such as a wifi device or a wired Internet device), or a short-distance communication device (such as Bluetooth).

In one embodiment, the personal training parameters 121 may include training action category, body movement range, resistance value, power, time, cycle times, K value and so on. Moreover, the personal training parameters 121 may also include different training parameters for the left hand and the right hand.

In addition, when the user is exercising, the control unit 11 records the motion information of the user's operating element 14, such as the moving distance, speed, and acceleration of the user's operating element 14, as well as the calculated range of motion of the user's limbs, limb Activity speed, force value and energy consumption, etc. After the exercise is over, the control unit 11 can upload the training result 126 integrating the exercise information to the remote device 30 for storage and further analysis for the user to understand his fitness status.

In one embodiment, the control unit 11 can compare the exercise information with the personal training parameters 121 to determine whether to adjust the degree of resistance, and selectively adjust the personal training parameters 121 . For example, if the control unit 11 judges that the current user's operation speed tends to slow down according to the exercise information, it means that the user's current physical fitness cannot bear the current training intensity, so the control unit 11 can control the stepless resistance source 13 to reduce the resistance Conversely, if the control unit 11 judges that the user's operation speed tends to become faster according to the motion information, the control unit 11 can control the stepless resistance source 13 to increase the resistance. When the above situation occurs, the control unit 11 can automatically adjust the personal training parameter 121 or generate prompt information to let the user understand the above situation and decide whether to adjust the personal training parameter 121 .

In one embodiment, the fitness training resistance system of the present invention further includes a physical condition evaluation unit 17 . Since the user's physical fitness will change every day, in order to avoid sports injuries, the physical condition assessment unit 17 can control the stepless fitness equipment 10 to test the user's physical condition before exercising, and fine-tune the personal training parameters according to the test results 121. The physical condition evaluation unit 17 can be built into the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 or set outside the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 .

When the personal training parameter 121 is adjusted, the control unit 11 can upload the adjusted personal training parameter 121 to the remote device 30 . In this way, the user can update the personal training parameters 121 more conveniently at any time.

In one embodiment, the fitness training resistance system of the present invention further includes an audio-visual output unit 16, such as a fluorescent screen, a video camera or a speaker, to display or play fitness guidance content. For example, during the user's fitness process, the remote trainer can obtain the current user's exercise information, understand the user's fitness status, and guide the user by video or voice.

Please refer to FIG. 2 , which shows a flow chart of the resistance control and adjustment method for fitness training of the present invention. In the figure, the resistance control and adjustment method for fitness training of the present invention is suitable for stepless fitness equipment with data transmission function. The execution steps of the fitness training resistance control and adjustment method of the present invention will be described below with reference to the fitness training resistance system in FIG. 1 .

In step S20 , the personal training parameters 121 are stored in the remote device 30 .

In step S21 , the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 is connected to the remote device 30 in a wired or wireless manner, so as to download the personal training parameters 121 to the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 .

In step S22 , control the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 to execute the exercise program 122 according to the personal training parameters 121 to output the resistance for the user to exercise. The exercise program 122 has a preset resistance setting function 123 and an adjustable parameter 124 relative to the position, speed or acceleration of the user's operating element 14 .

In step S23, the position, speed or acceleration of the user operation element 14 of the endless fitness equipment 10 being operated to move is detected.

In step S24 , the resistance is dynamically changed according to the detected position, speed or acceleration and the adjustable parameter 124 during the exercise of the user. Wherein, the way of dynamically changing the resistance has been described above, so it will not be repeated here.

In one embodiment, before the user exercises, the fitness training resistance system of the present invention further includes controlling the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 to test the user's physical condition, and adjusting the personal training parameters 121 according to the test result.

Please also refer to FIG. 5 , which is an operation flowchart of an embodiment of the fitness training resistance system of the present invention. In the figure, the stepless fitness equipment 10 is activated in step S51, and the training mode is set in step S52. For example, the user directly sets it on the stepless fitness equipment 10 or downloads it from the cloud.

After the training mode is set, the parameters corresponding to the selected training mode are set in step S53. This parameter is related to the generation of training resistance, such as training action category, range of body movement, resistance value, power, time, number of cycles or K value. In other embodiments, the physical state assessment may be additionally performed in step S62 to determine the current physical state of the user and adjust the parameters determined in step S53 according to the physical state. Alternatively, in other embodiments, an external coach or database may additionally provide suggestions for parameter adjustment in step S63.

Next, training is started in step S54. In step S55, the non-segmented fitness equipment 10 starts to provide resistance during the user's use of the user operating element 14 .

In step S56 , the motion information of the user is detected, such as the moving distance, speed or acceleration of the user's operating element 14 , to calculate the user's body movement range, body movement speed, force value or work done. In step S57, it is judged whether the current exercise information matches the parameters set in step S53. If they match, it means that the user's exercise condition is normal, and return to step S55.

If not, it means that the current resistance value needs to be adjusted, and the resistance value is increased or decreased in step S58. For example, the adjustment range can be determined by multiplying the motion information detected in step S56 by the K value set in step S53.

Since the need to adjust the resistance value may indicate that the user is tired, the user is then asked in step S59 whether to end the exercise. If yes, store the exercise result in step S60, and upload the exercise result to the cloud server for storage and analysis in step S61.

The specific embodiments proposed in the detailed description of the preferred embodiments are only used to facilitate the description of the technical content of the present invention, rather than restricting the present invention to the above-mentioned embodiments in a narrow sense, without departing from the spirit of the present invention and the claims Circumstances, the implementation of various changes all belong to the scope of the present invention.
