Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method for controlling a user's breathing during a workout on an exercise machine. This method helps the user breathe in a more efficient manner and provides them with timely and reliable indications on how to control breathing during the workout. The technical effects of this patent make it easier for users to exercise and achieve their fitness goals.

Problems solved by technology

Indeed, during overload workouts, lifting supramaximal loads while holding one's breath should be avoided because this would lead to an excessive and dangerous increase in intra-abdominal pressure.
However, this manner of oxygenating the body is not always correct and may lead to increased fatigue.

Embodiment Construction

[0024]An exercise machine 1 adapted to implement a method for controlling a user's breathing during a workout with an exercise machine according to the present invention will now be described with reference to the figures.

[0025]The exercise machine 1 may be any exercise machine usable by a user to perform physical activity remotely (e.g., from home) or in a gym, either alone or in a workout class.

[0026]Examples of exercise machines 1 are shown in FIG. 1a-1f.

[0027]FIG. 1a shows an example of a treadmill.

[0028]FIG. 1b shows an example of a bike or an exercise bike (cyclette).

[0029]FIG. 1c shows an example of a rowing machine.

[0030]FIGS. 1d, 1e, and 1f show examples of strength exercise machines.

[0031]Each strength exercise machine in FIGS. 1d, 1e, and 1f has movable elements (shown in the figures) actuatable by a user for performing a strength exercise by moving a respective exercise load. In particular, the movable elements are actuated by the user in a first direction of motion (so...

Abstract

A method for controlling breathing of a user during workout with an exercise machine is provided. The method includes acquiring, by a data processing unit of the exercise machine, at least one parameter representative of a physical exercise being performed by the user with the exercise machine, determining, by the data processing unit of the exercise machine, an indication of the breathing to be followed by the user while performing the physical exercise based on the acquired at least one parameter representative of the physical exercise, and providing the user, by the data processing unit of the exercise machine, with the determined indication of breathing. An exercise machine implementing the method for controlling breathing of the user during workout is also provided.

Description

CROSS-REFERECE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority to Italian Patent Application No. 102021000007334 filed on Mar. 25, 2021, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to the fitness sector and, in particular, to a method for controlling a user's breathing during a workout with an exercise machine and an exercise machine thereof.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Correct breathing is a very important aspect during physical activity for optimal performance of a workout with an exercise machine during not only the warm-up and / or the performance but also during the recovery phase.[0004]Furthermore, correct breathing guarantees better oxygenation of the brain, lowers the heartbeats with consequent activation of the parasympathetic nervous system, reduces anxiety and stress states, and improves the posture (in particular at cervical and lumbar level).[0005]While performing a physical e...
