Abstract

A unique concept of exercise and weight loss that takes place in a new invention utility, namely the exercise cells or the Ketone Inducing Apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus consists of four exercise cells to simulate four different exercise categories in extreme environments, namely walk/run/hike in a cold mountain environment, swim/water jogging in a cold water marine environment, cycling in a hot, humid, rainy, tropical forest environment, and gravitational rotation in a hot dry air windy space or desert environment. The purpose of this activity is to maximally stimulate the process of Ketosis (breakage of the human fat) to form smaller molecules of Ketones. The Ketones will then be eliminated both passively from the human body via urination and exhalation and actively through intracellular burn oxidation, hence reducing the extra fat load and reducing obesity. The reduction of the human obesity will enhance the human health status and reduce the complication of obesity namely diabetes, heart disease, and reduce the human mortality and morbidity.

Claims

said marine environment cell comprises water at a controlled temperature and speed, said marine environment cell having a resistance swimming apparatus enabling a person to swim in place,

said rain forest cell comprises a controlled rain forest room temperature, said rain forest cell further comprising a plurality of shower heads, a projector and a cycling exercise apparatus, said shower heads configured for introducing water to said rain forest cell to simulate rain, said projector configured to show images on a screen in view of a person utilizing said cycling exercise apparatus, and

said space cell comprises a controlled space room temperature, said space cell having a plurality fans, a gyroscope and a projector, said gyroscope sized to contain a user and configured for imparting rotational movement to the user'"'"'s body, said projector configured to show images pertaining to space and desert environment.

2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said exercise apparatus comprises an incline with a conveyor to simulate climbing on a mountain path.

3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said controlled mountain room temperature is between −

20° and

40°

Fahrenheit.

4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said resistance swimming apparatus comprises a countercurrent swimming machine having a water tank and an adjustable stream of water set in motion by means of a mechanical device.

5. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein said controlled water temperature is between 50°

and 90°

degrees Fahrenheit.

6. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said marine environment cell further comprises a platform and a tension line to provide exercise resistance.

7. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said exercise apparatus comprises a stationary exercise bike or a mountain exercise bike on accessory training equipment.

8. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said controlled forest room temperature is between 95°

and 135°

Fahrenheit.

9. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein said gyroscope further comprises:

a first, inner frame element serving as a carrier for an occupant and mounted in a second, larger frame element for rotation about a first axis, said second frame element being itself mounted in a third frame element for rotation about a second axis extending transversely of the first axis, wherein the third frame element is mounted for rotation about a third axis extending perpendicular to the second axis, so that mounting permits a person occupying the inner frame element to assume any angular position in space solely by displacement of his weight, the three frame elements are formed as nested rings made of round tubular sections; and
