- a method of fitness exercising of a subject with an apparatus comprising a negative pressure chamber comprising the steps of pre-programming the pressure variation inside the negative pressure chamber through a data processing means, enclosing a part of a human body to the negative pressure chamber, applying an exercise program of pressure values inside the negative pressure chamber for a pre-defined amount of time, based on the condition of the subject and the expected outcome.
- Known exercise devices that comprise a negative pressure chamber is suitable for applying the exercising method as described in the current disclosure.
- Such apparatuses are described for example in PCT/EP2012/060935 and in WO2009051765A1 . These apparatuses may comprise treadmills or fitness bicycles.
- Exercising while having enclosed a part of the human body, and especially the lower part of the human body, into the negative pressure chamber has been found to provide significant advantages. Applying negative pressure to the lower part of the human body results in an increase of the heart rate which in combination with the movement of the muscles stimulates the lymphatic system.
- the inventors have observed that based on the condition of a subject, which may preferably be a human being, and the desired outcome by such subject, they can pre-program the pressure variation inside the negative pressure chamber and consequently create an exercise program applying the pre-programmed pressure values inside the chamber.
- the human will identify other health benefits, such as better regulation of the metabolism, fat and weight loss that significantly contribute to the overall wellness of the subject.
- the possibility of pre-programming the pressure variations according to customized needs or desires results in a plurality of individual, customized exercising programs that along with the normal exercising (walking, running etc.) provide additional health benefits such as improved blood flow that has impact on, for example, loss of local weight of cellulite improvement, without the need of other technical means, since the process is carried out naturally with the aid of negative pressure programs.
- the preprogramming of the pressure variations inside the negative pressure chamber may be applied through a suitable data processing means.
- Such means may comprise a processor that may communicate with the fitness apparatus and may be capable of receiving the relevant input pressure parameters from a control panel of the apparatus.
- Other suitable processing means may be also contemplated, without deviating from the teachings of the present disclosure.
- an apparatus suitable for carrying the herein described method of exercising is provided in figures 1 and 2 .
- Such fitness apparatus comprises a plurality of components that, when assembled, provide the fitness device of figure 1 .
- the apparatus 1 comprises a negative pressure chamber 5 capable of accommodating the lower part of the human body.
- a belt is also located within the chamber for tightening the part of the human body within the capsule. Access to that chamber (or capsule) may be facilitated by a shutter type opening 6 which works as a door.
- Figure 1 shows the fitness apparatus having the door 6 opened, thereby making visible the treadmill 6 while figure 2 shows the fitness device having the shutter type opening closed.
- the fitness device 1 may be equipped with a tread climber or treadmill 8, located inside the chamber 8 and at least one pump (not shown) that is configured to create the negative pressure within the chamber 8.
- the pump may be controlled by a control panel 3, while the treadmill 8 by another electronic panel 18.
- the electronic panel 18 may be connected to the capsule and consequently to the treadmill with a support base 4 which is preferably made by stainless steel.
- a cupholder 19 may be mounted also on the fitness device to facilitate the user during the exercise.
- a pair of handles 20 for being grabbed by the user during exercising may also be provided thus enhancing safety of the user in case of tiredness during intense sport activity.
- Any suitable fastening means such as hinges or screws may be used for the assembly of the various components of the fitness device, thus ensuring its stability during operation.
- pre-programming the pressure variation inside the negative pressure chamber comprises segmenting the pre-defined amount of time in two or more consecutive time intervals and assign pressure values to each of the two or more consecutive time intervals.
- the predefined amount of time is normally between 30-40 minutes, which is considered sufficient exercising amount of time when done on a frequent basis. Segmenting such amount of time in two or more consecutive time intervals, provides the opportunity to assign specific pressure values to each time interval and therefore apply the negative pressure in the most efficient way, depending on the subject needs.
- segmenting the pre-defined amount of time comprises five consecutive time intervals, said consecutive time intervals comprising a first and a second time interval each of about 2 minutes, a third time interval of about 22 minutes and a fourth and a fifth time interval each of about 2 minutes, thus constituting a predefined amount of time that corresponds to an exercise program that is of about 30 minutes.
- These time intervals constitute consequently a fitness exercising program.
- the pressure values may be between -5 to - 15mb, the second time interval between -10 to -25mb, the third time interval between -15 to -30mb, during the fourth time interval between -10 to -25 mb and during the fifth time interval between -5 to -15 mb.
- the pressure decreases in the first time interval from 0 to approximately -5mb and remains constant at this value for about two minutes.
- the decrease of the pressure from 0mb to -5 mb has a duration of about 2 seconds which is considered a negligible amount of the overall 2minutes of the first time interval. Therefore, it can be interpreted that the negative pressure remains constant during the first time interval.
- the pressure decreases from -5mb to -10 mb, again within 2 seconds, and remains constant to -10mb during the second time interval which is of about 2 minutes.
- the pressure decreases from -10mb to -15mb where it remains constant for about 22 minutes which is the duration of the third time interval.
- the pressure increases from -15 mb to -10 mb where it remains constant for about 2 minutes while the program is completed with the increase of the negative pressure from -10mb to -5mb where it also remains constant for about 2 minutes.
- the pressure decreases in the first time interval from 0 to approximately -10mb and remains constant at this value for about two minutes.
- the decrease of the pressure from 0mb to -10 mb has a duration of about 2 seconds which is considered a negligible amount of the overall 2minutes of the first time interval. Therefore it can be interpreted that the negative pressure remains constant during the first time interval.
- the pressure decreases from -10mb to -15 mb, again within 2 seconds, and remains constant to -15mb during the second time interval which is of about 2 minutes.
- the pressure decreases from -15mb to -20mb where it remains constant for about 22 minutes which is the duration of the third time interval.
- the pressure increases from -20 mb to -15 mb where it remains constant for about 2 minutes while the program is completed with the increase of the negative pressure from -15mb to - 10mb where it also remains constant for about 2 minutes.
- Such program is suitable for people with varicose veins and phlebitis while it also stimulates the lymphatic system.
- the pressure decreases in the first time interval from 0 to approximately -15mb and remains constant at this value for about two minutes.
- the decrease of the pressure from 0mb to -15 mb has a duration of about 2 seconds which is considered a negligible amount of the overall 2minutes of the first time interval. Therefore, it can be interpreted that the negative pressure remains constant during the first time interval.
