<p>Resistance training apparatus (20) is disclosed comprising a linear electromagnetic assembly in which an armature (23), formed from one or more electrical conductors, is disposed for linear travel relative to an elongate stator (22) wherein the user of the apparatus may, in use, exert an exercise force in the direction of travel of one or both of the armature and the stator, the arrangement being such that electrical currents (27) circulating within the armature and the interaction of the magnetic fields arising therefrom with those provided by the stator, serve to provide an opposing force against the exercise force, wherein the said opposing force is caused to arise as a result of movement enforced by the user of the armature relative to the stator, and thus the induction of eddy currents in the armature, characterised in that the armature is constructed and arranged such that the eddy currents circulate around a complete circuit within the training apparatus.</p> |
