Exercise machine

1. An exercise machine comprising:

means for performing an exercise, allowing a user to perform at least one predetermined gymnastic exercise;

adjusting means connected to the means for performing an exercise and acting on the latter to adjust their operation;

a predetermined number of sensors, each connected to the means for performing an exercise and/or to the adjusting means and designed to detect at least one exercise machine operating parameter;

a processing unit, connected to the sensors for receiving at least one operating parameter, the processing unit being suitable for generating one or more web pages incorporating the operating parameter;

connecting means, inserted between an Internet network and the processing unit, creating a permanent connection between the Internet network and the processing unit;

a receiver-transmitter block, connected to the connecting means, for receiving, by means of the permanent connection, a request signal, from a remote processor, and, following a reception of said request signal by said receiver-transmitter block, for transmitting a transmission signal, for the remote processor and incorporating one or more of the web pages generated by the processing unit.

2. The exercise machine according to claim 1 , wherein the processing unit comprises a main memory for storing at least the web pages.

3. The exercise machine according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting means comprise an auxiliary memory, for holding a permanent IP code, unambiguously associated with the exercise machine, so as to create the permanent connection to the Internet network.

4. The exercise machine according to claim 1 , wherein the operating parameters comprise a total time for which the exercise machine has been used and/or one or more types of exercises done by the user using the means for performing an exercise.

5. The exercise machine according to claim 1 , wherein the means for performing an exercise comprise at least one load to be moved, the operating parameters preferably comprising a weight of the load and/or a number of sets of repetitions to be performed by the user with the load.

6. The exercise machine according to claim 1 , wherein the means for performing an exercise comprise a rotary belt, the operating parameters preferably comprising a distance covered with the rotary belt and/or a rotary belt sliding speed.

7. The exercise machine according to claim 1 , wherein the means for performing an exercise comprise at least two pedals, which can be moved with an alternating to and fro motion, the operating parameters preferably comprising a pedal movement speed and/or a distance covered using the pedals.

8. The exercise machine according to claim 1 , further comprising an auxiliary processing unit, inserted between the connecting means and the adjusting means and acting on the adjusting means for receiving from the remote processor, through the permanent connection, a command signal, to adjust operation of the means for performing an exercise according to the command signal.

9. The exercise machine according to any one of claims 1 to 8 , wherein the request signal and the command signal are received and the transmission signal is transmitted using the TCP/IP telecommunications protocol.
