TECHNICAL STATE

With the sole and exclusive purpose of providing truth to the preamble of this statement, the applicant will make in the following paragraphs a brief but consistent explanation of the state of the art for the problems and inconveniences existing within the posture of the human being, where it will be It is possible for a person skilled in the art to recognize its shortcomings in order to clearly identify in the invention now claimed the requirement of novelty, which is mandatory in the Industrial Property Law.

Posture is the set in position of the joints of a body at any given time acting to provide balance in space, an entity formed in conjunction with the nervous system and muscles. Although many people think that posture is just the set dictated by the spine, it is also a primary and essential part of posture because it will determine the direction of the upper and lower limbs under various influences. Man's bipedal posture is extremely effective and is the most economical anti-gravity mechanism because it takes little energy to stand on 5 feet, using a little of each muscle and creating our own posture.

In an individual, information occurs between the nervous system and the brain from three sources for the body's balance in the space around it, whether standing, sitting or moving. Information provided from the eyes, ears, muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons. In the last four cited, there are proprioceptors that inform a structure called the cerebellum, then inform the brain of the degree of tension that each one is undergoing and then relay that information back to the same muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons, causing us to consciously or unconsciously balance ourselves. Thanks to these receptors, if we close our eyes or cover our ears and make a movement, we would perfectly perceive our position in the space in which we are located.

Proper posture improves quality of life and is critical to the health of the spine bones. But good posture requires that all the muscles in the body are strengthened, especially the muscles of the back and abdomen.

The psychological factor counts a lot for good

body posture. One soon realizes when an individual is sad or depressed due to the positioning of his shoulders. An extremely tired or sleepy individual will hardly have a correct posture. As a happy and willing individual always have a better posture.

Some situations that can cause poor posture are psychological state, incorrect sitting, non-exercise and sleeping position.

Poor posture for years can have serious consequences such as hyperkyphosis (hump) and scoliosis. These, when untreated, can even lead to pulmonary impairment due to their poor expansion during inspiration and disc hernias.

Working for over 19 years with posture and pathologies that affect the spine, the inventor realized that the main cause of problems is lack of body awareness and misuse of our body in activities of daily living.

The human being spends most of his day sitting today, a position that puts great strain on our articular discs, even when the individual remains in a proper posture.

The activity in poor posture leads to an even greater overload of our intervertebral discs, leading to their early dehydration, and over time bulging, protrusions, herniated discs and other changes such as artosis, spondylodiscitis, among others.

Given the above in the fundamentals of the technique, over time and the accumulation of experiences, the facts pointed toward the construction of an unprecedented equipment for proprioceptive training and balance, presenting several 15 advantages, being very practical and efficient, where its constructivity. odd eliminates all known negatives in the prior art which is disclosed in this patent.

According to the present the equipment in

The subject comprises a quadrangular metal structure which internally receives a combination of various accessories which can be assembled and disassembled as required, such as a barrel or cell with 20 stirrups; a board; a quadrangular platform; a bicycle, among others; all suspended by four springs or ropes, these, fixed in small supports arranged in the vertical profiles of each diagonal that make up the metal structure.

The use of ropes increases the stability of accessories while the springs instability. The accessories 5 may be used in conjunction with the springs and ropes, or only with the springs, or only with the strings, depending on the purpose. The springs can still be changed in position, becoming more parallel, thus making the exercise even more difficult.

Each accessory or element has a means of

snap in order to receive the four springs or ropes, which may range from hooks, carabiners or hoops.

The equipment presented is innovative bringing the unprecedented concept of balance in spring suspended accessories.

or strings, providing instruments for the development and improvement of balance, strength, motor coordination and flexibility, in the most varied positions and levels of difficulty, aiming at functional recovery, postural education and reeducation, fitness and riding.

In the area of preventive physiotherapy one of the goals

Another goal is to perform proprioceptive training for executives and people who spend most of the day sitting, seeking through the correct sitting posture, the reeducation of posture and improvement of pain or injury prevention.

Another example of using the equipment is to perform balance training for riding practitioners, 10 seeking to improve equestrian performance through better balance and reduction of asymmetrical weight discharges in stirrups, loin and mouth of the horse so that the set Horse rider have a better use in equestrian events, reducing injuries and early fatigue.

Another proposed objective is to search through

The first steps of riding and coordinating the leg and reins controls are set up so that the future rider can theoretically learn to practice riding his horse the right way. In addition, it develops corrective training work, 20 providing correction of unwanted movements or misuse of the reins by the rider. Another proposed goal is to perform the conditioning of riding athletes or other sports in which balance training and motor sensory organization can contribute to sports performance, in addition to high 5-trot aerobic work for long distance riders as enduro practitioners.

Another proposed improvement is that due to its innovative design and design it is possible to increase it with various accessories available in the market, such as springs, elastics, elastic bands, basketball hoops, reins, pedals, belts, dumbbells, among others, making the product more versatile and effective.

All of the above configurations are adaptable for use with four strings or springs.
