METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS MEASUREMENT OF AND REGULORY FEEDBACK FOR STRENGTH-TRAINING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240033577 titled 'METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS MEASUREMENT OF AND REGULORY FEEDBACK FOR STRENGTH-TRAINING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for continuously measuring and providing feedback for strength-training exercises. The method involves measuring the vertical force exerted by a person lifting weights on plates attached to load cells. This force measurement is used to calculate the velocity and relative movement of the combined center of mass of the person and the lifting weight. Real-time feedback is then provided to the user, relating to velocity and/or lifting distance in relation to predefined or generated values. This feedback helps the user adjust their training based on the feedback.

  • The method involves measuring the vertical force exerted by a person lifting weights on plates attached to load cells.
  • The force measurement is used to calculate the velocity and relative movement of the combined center of mass of the person and the lifting weight.
  • Real-time feedback is provided to the user, relating to velocity and/or lifting distance in relation to predefined or generated values.
  • The feedback helps the user adjust their training based on the feedback.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Strength-training and fitness tracking for individuals or athletes.
  • Rehabilitation and physical therapy monitoring and guidance.
  • Performance tracking and analysis for weightlifting competitions or sports training.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides real-time feedback to users, allowing them to adjust their training based on objective measurements.
  • Enables continuous measurement of strength-training exercises, allowing for more accurate tracking and analysis.
  • Helps prevent injuries by providing feedback on lifting technique and form.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Allows users to optimize their strength-training exercises by providing real-time feedback on velocity and lifting distance.
  • Provides a more objective and accurate measurement of strength-training performance.
  • Can be used for various applications, including fitness tracking, rehabilitation, and sports training.


Original Abstract Submitted

it is described a method for continuous measurement of, and regulatory feedback for, strength-training where the reaction forces from a person with a lifting weight that is standing on a surface, is transferred through the surface, said method comprising the following steps: a. measure a force in vertical direction (z-direction) on one or more plates attached to one or more load cells; b. use the force measurement in step a) to continuous calculating the velocity of, and relative movement of the combined center of mass of the person and the lifting weight, c. provide feedback in real-time to the user, where the feedback relates to velocity and/or lifting distance in relation to predefined values and/or generated values, in order to the user to adjust the training based on the feedback.
