Prof. Predrag Spasojevic



Objective
• Design a weight resistance system that allows for the user to safely and effectively work out. The system should also allow the user to access his data/records at any time.

Introduction

• Nearly all the machines used for resistance training are based around physical weights and heavy machines. Why not have a machine that has no weights and instead works electronically?
• CIWRFC will allow the user to exert force upon the system and will allow the user to see the exact force that he is exerting upon the system.
• As there are no moving parts or weights, CIWRFC is safer than the conventional weight lifting machine and it will also exact weight that the user is lifting or pushing against.
