In today’s research, sustainable gym concepts are rising in which, one can generate electricity from gyms equipment. The objective of this project is to harvest human energy from biceps exercise machine and transform into electrical energy. To complete this goal, a mechanism is fabricated and attached to the existing biceps machine accessible in any fitness centers. After mechanism is been fabricated, can be easily attached or detached to the biceps machine which converts the To and Fro motion to complete pure circular motion that helps to rotate the motors shaft in order to generate electricity. Battery is attached to the system that stores the electrical charges depends upon lifting the load, time taken to lift the load and these electrical charges can be access for later use. The concept of smart biceps machine is to provide exceptional features to enhance the user experience that can be able to produce electricity, Self-trained and defined the user basic health status.
