Linear-response resistance system for exercise equipment

摘要

A system for adjusting the resistance sensed by a user of a piece of exercise equipment. A pivotally mounted arm has at least one resistance magnet mounted thereto, and an adjustment actuator varies the proximity of the at least one resistance magnet to a resistance member of the piece of exercise equipment. The system provides a substantially linear relationship between the positional adjustment of the adjustment actuator and the resistance sensed by the user.
