Abstract

See full text

Asymmetrical resistance systems and methods include an asymmetrical flywheel having a braking track disposed on a first side of the flywheel, and a resistance apparatus comprising at least one magnet, wherein a distance between the magnet and the braking track corresponds to a force resisting rotation of the flywheel. The flywheel includes an outer portion comprising a ferromagnetic material, and the resistance apparatus includes a backing plate disposed on a side of the magnets opposite the braking track. A magnetic field flows from a first magnet to the outer portion of the flywheel through the braking track, back through the braking track to the second magnet, and from the second magnet through the backing plate to the first magnet. While the flywheel is rotating, the braking track moves through the magnetic field creating an eddy current that generates a force resistant to the rotation of the asymmetrical flywheel.
