US Patent:

8092381, Jan 10, 2012

Filed:

May 31, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/809706

Inventors:

Sally Edwards - Sacramento CA, US

Assignee:

Heart Zones USA - Sacramento CA

International Classification:

A61B 5/00

US Classification:

600300, 128898

Abstract:

A system for increasing the fitness level of a fitness enthusiast. The system includes a personalized set of intensity zones corresponding to increasing levels of exercise intensity. The personalization of the system is accomplished through determining a threshold level based on oxygen consumption or a numerical rating of perception of effort or lactate or metabolism that is unique to each individual. From this determination, an anchor point is created upon which the heart rate values for each of eight zones is based. Each zone corresponds to a multiplier that when factored in to the amount time spent in each zone by the individual, yields a total training load value.

International Classification:

A43B 504

US Classification:

36122

Abstract:

A combination snowshoe and binding, wherein the binding cooperates upon the snowshoe, for evenly distributing a user's weight thereupon. The binding includes an outboard half and an inboard half, the outboard half being horizontally movable upon the inboard half, in a slidable manner. The outboard half remains loosely coupled upon a pivoting member and moves freely in a horizontal direction, to accommodate the foot widths of a variety of users. The inboard half remains stationary, while in use, but can loosened, and adjusted in a horizontal direction. By moving the inboard half to a desired adjustment position, a proper positioning for evenly distributing a user's weight upon the snowshoe can be achieved. The snowshoe further includes an asymmetric frame member for allowing a user to walk with a normal stride upon a snowy surface.

Abstract:

A system for increasing the fitness level of a fitness enthusiast. The system includes a personalized set of intensity zones corresponding to increasing levels of exercise intensity. The personalization of the system is accomplished through the determination of a first and second anchor point based on changes in the rate of change of an individual's heart rate as exercise stress is increased. Values for a plurality of zones are determined based on at least one of said anchor points. Each zone corresponds to a multiplier that when factored in to the amount time spent in each zone by the individual, yields a total training load value for the individual as the individual exercises.
