Abstract: A stretch exercise tool having both ends of a band that can adjust a use length passed through a pair of fittings in a retaining state, and a root portion of a stretchable elastic ring is sandwiched by the fittings in the retaining state.

Abstract: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program that make it possible to encourage a user to consume energy. The information processing apparatus includes a presentation control unit that controls presentation of energy consumption of a user in a time period from detection of a first trigger to detection of a second trigger. The first trigger causes energy consumption to be presented. The second trigger causes energy consumption to be presented. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a mobile information terminal such as a wearable device or a smartphone.

Abstract: The therapy device comprises a deflection tube and a handle, which are rotably disposed so as to be mutually perpendicular or parallel to one another. The deflection tube is made of transparent plastic or glass. It is semi-circular, closed on both ends, and filled with a transparent liquid that contains a freely floating bubble or ball, which acts as an indicator. When the handle is rotated, the indicator floats away from the center of the deflection tube toward one of its ends. The tube is marked at regular intervals with indicia, preferably numerals, which quantify the degree of deflection of the indicator toward an end of the tube, with higher numbers corresponding to greater deflection and hence greater rotation of the handle.
