Abstract
The system provides an exercise device where resistance is provided by one or more of gyroscopic forces, centrifugal forces, magnetic forces, torus forces symmetric field physics, electro-mechanical forces, mass shaping, frequency dynamics, etc. In one embodiment, a handheld device with an internal flywheel is provided. The flywheel is spun up to a desired speed and provides a gyroscopic resistance to movement in a particular direction relative to the orientation of the device. By holding the device in a particular orientation and attempting to move the device against the gyroscopic effect, resistance is provided for exercising. The device itself is relatively light so that the resistance exists principally when the device is being moved. In one embodiment, the rate of rotation of the flywheel can be controlled via an on-board control so that the resistance can be increased or decreased during exercise movement.
