Abstract:
Embodiments of a strength training apparatus and related methods are provided. In one embodiment, a strength training apparatus may include a base member, a tower structure, a first arm, a second arm, a flywheel, a cable and pulley system, a torque sensor, and a console. The cable and pulley system may be configured to effect rotation of the flywheel. The torque sensor may be configured to measure torque applied to the flywheel during the rotation of the flywheel. The console may include an output device. The console may further be in communication with the torque sensor. The console may further be configured to calculate an amount of work expended by a user based at least in part on the measured torque. The output device may be configured to provide an indication of the calculated amount of work expended by the user.
