Disclosed is a muscle toning garment with detachable, interchangeable resistance elements. The garment provides resistance training throughout an angular range of motion. The garment may be low profile, and worn by a wearer as a primary garment or beneath conventional clothing. Toning may thereby be accomplished throughout the wearer's normal daily activities, without the need for access to conventional exercise equipment. Alternatively, the device may be worn as a supplemental training tool during conventional training techniques.

1. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment, comprising: a first attachment structure, for attachment with respect to a first region of a human body;a second attachment structure, for attachment with respect to a second region of a human body which is movable throughout an angular range with respect to the first region;a resistance element between the first and second attachment structures;wherein the resistance element imparts bidirectional resistance in response to movement between the first and second regions of a human body, throughout a range of motion, but imparts no directional bias in the absence of motion between the first and second regions of the human body; andwherein the resistance to movement is maintained within a range between a minimum of at least about 0.5 foot pounds and a maximum which is less than about 3 times the minimum. 2. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the first attachment structure comprises a structure for attachment to a leg above a knee. 3. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the first attachment structure comprises a structure for attachment at a waist. 4. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the resistance element comprises a pivotable resistance element. 5. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the first attachment structure and the second attachment structure comprise first and second regions of a garment. 6. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 5, wherein the garment extends at least from a waist to below a knee. 7. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment extends at least from a waist to a calf. 8. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 6, wherein the garment imposes a first level of resistance to movement across a hip and a second level of resistance across a knee, and the first level is greater than the second level. 9. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the resistance element is removably carried by the bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment. 10. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, comprising a plurality of sleeves for receiving resistance elements. 11. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the garment comprises a left leg having a left resistance element and a right leg having a right resistance element. 12. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the garment comprises a compression fabric. 13. A bidirectional, neutral bias toning garment as in claim 12, wherein the fabric comprises a polyester elastane fabric with moisture wicking properties. 14. A bidirectional toning garment as in claim 9, wherein the garment comprises a compression fabric. 15. A bidirectional toning garment as in claim 14, wherein the fabric comprises a polyester elastane fabric with moisture wicking properties. 16. A bidirectional toning garment as in claim 14, wherein the left and right resistance elements each impose a resistance of at least about 0.5 foot pounds. 17. A bidirectional toning garment as in claim 16, wherein the left and right resistance elements each impose a resistance of at least about 1 foot pound. 18. A bidirectional toning garment as in claim 1, wherein the maximum is less than about 2 times the minimum.
