20110071003 | PORTABLE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY SENSING SYSTEM - A portable system retrieves one or more exercise programs from a remote communication system that provides motivational content for a user exercising upon an exercise mechanism. The exercise program further includes at least one control signal that controls one or more operating parameters of the exercise mechanism. The portable system includes a control device configured to retrieve the exercise program and deliver the motivational content to the user by way of an audio delivery device, while delivering the control signals to the exercise mechanism. A sensor communicates with the control device and tracks one or more measurable parameters of the user during the user's performance of the exercise program. Data representative of the one or more measurable parameters can be delivered to the control device for delivery to the remote communication system. | 03-24-2011 |
20120115695 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EXERCISING - An abdominal exercise device includes a support structure, a track movable relative to the support structure, and a body support member movable relative to the support structure and track. A locking mechanism attaches to the track, and selectively secures the track at a fixed orientation relative to the support structure. In a first state, the locking mechanism restricts the track from rotating relative to the support structure. In a second state, the locking mechanism allows the track to rotate relative to the support structure. In using the exercise device, the user may obtain any of three motions. A first motion is provided by sliding the body support member along the track. A second motion is provided by rotating the track relative to the support structure. A third motion is a combined motion in which the body support slides along the track and the track rotates relative to the support structure. | 05-10-2012 |

20140309084 | Indoor-Outdoor Exercise System - An embodiment of an exercise system includes an exercise monitoring device that gathers data regarding an outdoor exercise routine. Additionally, a remote communication system communicatively connectable to the exercise monitoring device is receptive to the data regarding the outdoor exercise routine such that the remote communication system generates an exercise program based on the data regarding the outdoor exercise routine. Furthermore, an exercise device that is communicatively connectable to the remote communication system may receive the exercise program and simulate one or more aspects of the outdoor exercise routine. | 10-16-2014 |

20150182781 | Selective Angular Positioning of the Crank of an Elliptical - An exercise machine includes a frame pivotally connected to a stationary horizontal base. A first foot pedal and a second foot pedal are attached to the frame and arranged to travel along reciprocating paths. The exercise machine also includes a resistance mechanism connected to the frame and arranged to resist movement of the first foot pedal and the second foot pedal along the reciprocating paths. An angling mechanism is arranged to selectively angle the frame by pivoting the frame with respect to the stationary horizontal base. | 07-02-2015 |
