Abstract
The present invention applies to the field of exercise devices and bodybuilding and muscle building devices. This invention describes a system applied in exercise devices, preferably for the performance of the activity of bodybuilding, without the use of a counterweight, in which the system is based on the speed of the movement, independent of the applied force.

-21. (canceled)
An exercise apparatus system that is comprised of a microprocessor, a pulley, a speed sensor, a brake, a support bar, a digital panel, a cable, a dynamometer a spring, a speed selector and a program, wherein the microprocessor controls the actuation of the brake of the pulley based on a speed that is pre-determined by a user and the instant speed measured by the sensor, and also receives information from the sensor, the dynamometer and the speed selector, whereby the speed, once regulated by the speed selector, is constantly measured by the sensor, which conveys the information to the microprocessor that controls the brake of the pulley, keeping the rotation speed constant, as set previously by the speed selector of the pulley;
- and the dynamometer installed on the cable supplies information on the force applied on the support bar to the microprocessor which is then displayed on the digital panel, wherein the steel cable is attached to the pulley and connected to the support bar, and wherein a minimum force must be applied to the bar in order to overcome the resistance of the spring.
An exercise apparatus system that is comprised of a microprocessor, a pulley, an electric motor, a support bar, a digital panel, a cable, a speed selector and a program, wherein the microprocessor controls the actuation of the electric motor, based on a speed that is pre-determined by a user through the speed selector, whereby the speed, once regulated by the speed selector, is constantly controlled by the electric motor, which keeps the rotation speed constant, as set previously by the speed selector of the pulley;
- and the electric motor supplies information on the force applied on the support bar to the microprocessor which is then displayed on the digital panel, wherein the steel cable is attached to the pulley and connected to the support bar.
