1. An exercise device, comprising:
- a self-expanding sole assembly configurable between an expanded configuration and a collapsed configuration, the sole assembly generates a resistive force as the sole assembly in the expanded configuration moves towards the collapsed configuration and generates an expansion force to move from the collapsed configuration towards the expanded configuration, wherein the self-expanding sole assembly is programmed to communicate with a controller and includes one or more sensors configured to generate output that is sent to the controller to determine at least one of the resistive force or the expansion force.

Abstract
An exercise apparatus includes a pair of step-up apparatuses wearable on feet of a user. Each step-up apparatus is configurable between an expanded configuration and a compressed configuration to simulate a selected motion when the user wearing the pair of step-up apparatuses travels by foot. One of the step-up apparatuses moves towards the expanded configuration while the other step-up apparatus moves towards the compressed configuration.

4. An exercise system, comprising:
-
a first footwear apparatus configured to communicate with a controller and including one or more first sensors configured to output first data, wherein the controller is configured for wireless communication with the one or more first sensors; and a second footwear apparatus configured to communicate with the controller, the second footwear apparatus including one or more second sensors configured to output second data, wherein the first data and/or second data are used by the controller to determine one or more force settings, control maps, characteristics of motion, and/or control curves. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
