The weighted innerball may contain a fluid mass. The hollow outer ball, the weighted inner ball and the at least two opposing suspension members may all be integrally formed with each other. In one embodiment, the outer ball, the inner ball, and the suspension members are all formed from integral segments of a pliant tube. The hollow outer ball is formed by everting first and second end segments of the tube over the middle segment of the tube and joining the first and second end segments of the tube together at their openings. The weighted inner ball is formed from the middle segment of the tube which, in one embodiment, is a bulge in the tube.
182 STRETCHING DEVICE US13812032 2011-08-03 US20130123069A1 2013-05-16 Stuart John Andrews
A user-actuated stretching device (10) activates an alarm and/or a controller (48) in response to a stretch velocity condition or stretch load condition being detected. Exemplary stretch velocity conditions may be a detected drop in stretch velocity and/or a detected excessive stretch velocity. The alarm may be visual, audible or tactile. The controller preferably takes the form of a solenoid (48) which can lock a hydraulic damper (46) in response to a stretching velocity condition being detected. The device optimises stretching and reduces the risk of over-stretching and injury.
183 ROTATOR CUFF THERAPY DEVICE US13668695 2012-11-05 US20130116605A1 2013-05-09 Link A. Dephouse
A rotator cuff therapy device assists a user in accomplishing orbital motion of the user's arm to provide a therapeutic effect that strengthens and rehabilitates the arms, shoulders, and related joints and tissues. The device may be adjustable so that an unevenly-weighted rotatable portion can be moved along a desired path with varying speed and effort according to a pre-selected friction setting, and while being held in different positions relative to the user's body. This allows the device to be used by people with varying degrees of dexterity, strength, or injury, while targeting different tissues for therapy.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for providing resistance to movement of a wearer. The system includes a plurality of wearable actuators, a plurality of wearable sensors, and a processor. Each of the wearable sensors measures an indication of an orientation of a corresponding one of the wearable actuators with respect to a vertical direction. Each of the sensors also measures an indication of a motion experienced by the corresponding one of the wearable actuators. The processor receives data from each sensor indicating the orientation and the motion of the sensor. The processor determines an amount of resistance to apply using each of the actuators based on the vertical direction and sends instructions to the actuators. The instructions cause the actuators to apply a resistance to the wearer.

191 Exercise Device and Method of Use US13045649 2011-03-11 US20110224054A1 2011-09-15 Mark Bernstein
A hand held exercise device for providing a user with a portable workout. The device may generally comprise a central handle diametrically disposed within and spanning across a ring element having a toroidally shaped inner chamber. Internal bumpers within the inner chamber act to limit the range of motion or travel of at least one mobile element within the inner chamber. Rotational forces imparted by the user upon the handle cause movement of the at least one mobile element that is responded to and countered with user muscle flexion. In this manner, a user may perform a satisfactory workout by continually imparting and then resisting rotation force in alternating clockwise and counterclockwise directions.

199 Illuminating wrist exerciser US12543771 2009-08-19 US07736276B2 2010-06-15 Yun Yu Chuang; Ming Hung Lin; Pei Sung Chuang
An illuminating wrist exerciser includes upper and lower casing members, a ring, a rotor, a magnetic element, an illumination control circuit board, a plurality of illuminators, and a coil holder. The upper and lower casing members mate each other to form an interior space receiving the rotor therein. The upper casing member forms in a top portion thereof an opening to partially expose the rotor. Opposite ends of the rotor are rotatably coupled to the ring surrounding the rotor. The magnetic element is mounted to the ring. The illumination control circuit board and the coil holder are received in a recess defined in one of the ends of the rotor. The coil holder forms a bore in which the magnetic element is received. The coil holder carries thereon at least one pair of coils. The illuminators are distributively arranged on an outer surface of the rotor and are electrically connected to the illumination control circuit board. Electrical power is induced by the magnetic interaction between the coils of the coil holder and the magnetic element and is fed to the illumination control circuit board, which in turn controls the lighting/darkening of the illuminators to thereby provide a power-generation, illuminating wrist exerciser.
200 Wrist exerciser with sound generator US11514867 2006-09-05 US07736275B2 2010-06-15 Yun Yu Chuang; Ming Hung Lin
A wrist exercise includes a casing composed of upper and lower casing members mating each other to form a hollow sphere, a retention ring fixed between the upper and lower casing members, a rotor rotatably supported inside the casing by the retention ring. Cavities are formed in opposite sides of the rotor and are each divided into chambers by partitions fixed in the cavities. Holes are defined in an outside surface of the rotor and are in communication with the chambers, whereby, in operation of the wrist exerciser, the rotor is rotated and high-speed airflows are caused between the holes and the chambers due to centrifugal forces induced by the rotation of the rotor, which airflows generate sounds, thereby effecting sound generation of the wrist exerciser.
