%X In this paper we propose a technical device to implement in eddy current brakes of exercise machine. It is based on the recently found spontaneous behaviour of the human beings environment brain-body system while performing various kinds of goal-directed tasks. We hypothesize that embedding the performers in a multi-time-scale (MTS) fluctuation regime of resistance will provide a high adaptive effects on their bodily functions. First we make a brief review on investigated tasks that revealed such fluctuation temporal performance structure and then we proceed to a more technical description of performance temporal fluctuations and their main properties. In the final part we describe the expected properties and benefits of ergometers and exercise machines implementing such system.
