Bei einem Heimtrainer, insbesondere in Form eines Standfahrrads, wobei an dem Heimtrainer ein Mikroprozessor und eine Einrichtung zur Erfassung der von der trainierenden Person erbrachten Leistung sowie ein Sensor zur Erfassung des körperlichen Zustandes in Abhängigkeit von der Zeit während des Trainings und nach dem Training vorgesehen sind, ist zur Erzielung eines erhöhten psychologischen Anreizes zur Benutzung auch über längere Zeiträume vorgesehen, daß Sensoren (15) zur Messung des Durchgangswiderstandes der Hautoberfläche verwendet werden, welche mit einem Mikroprozessor (µC) verbunden sind, wobei der Mikroprozessor (µC) seinerseits in Abhängigkeit von dem aus den Sensoren (15) erhaltenen Signal akustische und/oder optische Anzeigegeräte (17 bzw. 18) steuert.

Structural systems and method are employed including a multiplicity of computers to control the acquisition and enhancement of skilled performance or behavior. Pre-processing computers (8 and 24) each accept signals from any corresponding one of a variety of physiological or other signal transducers either in close proximity to the computer or transmitted to the computer via a telemetering system. The pre-processing computer calculates a number of different measures of this signal and makes the results known to one or more other computers. These other or auxiliary computers control presentation of a display of the data for a human observer, and perform additional calculations which determine if the processed data is within a predetermined range. This range may be a function of time and/or other variables. A measure of the error between the allowed range and the processed data is computed within these auxiliary computers. These results may be used to alter the display. They are also returned to the pre-processing computer where they may alter the pre-processing calculations. Alteration of the display and the pre-processing calculations are adapted to improve skilled performance and behavior without the intervention of a human operator other than the user.

The present invention concerns an innovative footwear system, for example in the form of an insole or sock.

It comprises at least one injecting electrode (10', 10" , 100', 100"), through which to inject a current (I) of reference, and at least one receiving electrode (20', 20"; 200', 200") through which to measure a relative voltage drop (V) and/or a variation of phase.

An apparatus for an interval exercise performable by a person, the interval exercise including at least two training intervals, each including a work phase and a recovery phase, wherein processing a first exercise parameter data characterizing an exertion level of the interval exercise, detecting a work phase of a training interval from the first exercise parameter data, detecting a value of the first exercise parameter from the exercise parameter data at end of the work phase, and determining a threshold level of a physiological parameter, measured from the person and characterizing the person's recovery level in a recovery phase, based on the value of the first exercise parameter at the end of the work phase.
