Abstract
An exercise device in accordance with the present disclosure may include a body having a first end and a second end, wherein a first end is configured to receive a handle attachment. The exercise device may also include a first connection component disposed at the second end of the body and configured to attach the exercise device to a first resistance component. A sensor may be coupled to the first connection component. Additionally, a processing circuit may be disposed in the body of the exercise device communicatively coupled to the sensor. The exercise device may include a rotatable display configured to be visible to a user as a user performs movements with the exercise device.
Claims20
An exercise device comprising:
- a body having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is configured to receive a handle attachment;
- a first connection component disposed at the second end of the body and configured to attach the exercise device to a first resistance component,
- a sensor coupled to the first connection component;
- a processing circuit disposed in the body of the exercise device communicatively coupled to the sensor;
- and
- a rotatable display communicatively coupled to the processing circuit and configured to rotate along one or more axes and display information based on an output of the sensor.
A method for operating an exercise device comprising:
- detecting first data at a first sensor, wherein the first data is indicative of a first movement, wherein the first movement is performed with the exercise device while a first resistance component is coupled to the exercise device;
- communicating the first data to a processing circuit;
- determining a first force generated by the first movement;
- and
- displaying information based on the first force on a rotatable display on the exercise device.
