Abstract: A foldable treadmill is designed to automatically collapse into an upright position for compact storage and efficient space utilization. Featuring small wheels and a low-profile upright form, it can be seamlessly rolled and stored beneath or adjacent to a desk, minimizing spatial intrusion and preserving legroom for seated users. The treadmill transitions automatically from its upright storage position to a deployed configuration on the floor, positioned for convenient use in front of a workstation. Engineered to facilitate low-speed walking while working, it supports an active and ergonomic work environment. Compatible with both height-adjustable and standard fixed-height desks, this innovative treadmill enables users to integrate movement into their daily routines, mitigating the adverse effects of prolonged sedentary behavior and promoting workplace health and productivity.

Abstract: The present invention relates, in various embodiments, to improved simulation technology for use with a stationary training system. In some embodiments, this includes use of sensors, for example, wearable sensors, to control simulation parameters (such as display and/or performance parameters). For example, in some embodiments, a body worn sensor, such as an accelerometer and/or gyroscope, is used thereby to infer body position attributes of a user and, in response, configure one or more simulation parameters. These may include, for example, display parameters (for example, whether a simulated avatar is seated or standing) and/or performance parameters (for example, simulated wind resistance).

Abstract: An extendable fitness bar including an internal elastic member. The extendable fitness bar includes two, hollow external bars with ends facing one another. On an interior of the two external bars is an internal bar. The internal elastic member extends through the two external bars and the internal bar. The internal elastic member is attached to a far end of each of the external bars. A user can grasp each external bar and separate them, exposing the internal bar and creating a longer continuous bar. This separation also causes the internal elastic member to stretch creating tension. The user may also twist the two external bars in opposing directions (clockwise and counterclockwise) for additional stretches.
