Description

Description: [0001] The invention relates to a training device 11 for training and training the human body, in particular movements and muscles, as required and claimed in tennis game or similar ball sports such as golf, baseball, badminton or squash.

In recent years, the demands on the athletes were significantly increased in both athletic and technical terms. In tennis, for example, all strokes such as forehand, backhand or serve will accelerate the clubhead much more than a few years ago. This results in much more speed and spin for the player.

There are various exercise devices with an elastic resistance known. However, these exercise machines are no longer sufficient to cope with the increased demands made on the impact technique, the impact dynamics and the safety of the athlete. A new aid for training and training had to be developed, which can also accurately reproduce the fine angle settings in the wrist and forearm. In particular, the Umwendbewegungen in the forearm, as applied to forehands and impacts (pronation) or backhands (Supination) require training devices that can simulate these movements exactly. Another disadvantage of most of these exercise equipment is the lack of the actual sports equipment 18. This makes it difficult for the practitioner to recognize the correct position (angle and position) and the correct movement, since he sees only a short handle and not the whole sports equipment. Another disadvantage is the high cost incurred in the manufacture of many other exercise equipment.

It is the object of the invention to eliminate the disadvantages of said exercise equipment and to create a training device for ball sports such as tennis, golf, baseball, badminton or squash, which can be precisely adjusted, easy and safe in the application, convenient Transportable and installable and usable everywhere. The solution of this task consists according to the invention in a training device 11 for the training of the athlete in his particular sport and for training the muscles in terms of the requirements of this sport. The requirements of both competitive athletes, as well as of average athletes or people in convalescence after injuries are taken into account.

In this case, an elastic band 12 made of latex or a material with similar properties and configured with a double loop 14, which is placed around the handle 19 of a sports equipment 18. By train on the elastic band 12, the double loop 14 is contracted like a sling and thus the exercise machine 11 firmly connected to the sports equipment 18 (for example, a tennis racket). This makes it possible to set the desired position for the exercise (starting point and angle for the force vectors). The free end of the elastic band 12 is connected by means of snap hook 13 and webbing 20 to a fixed object. As a fixed object, for example, a post 24 or a grid on a tennis court, a door 21 or a window in a house or a fixed device such as a hook in a wall can be used.

The double loop 14 has a rear 16 and a front part 15. The rear part 16 is held together by a shrink tube 17, which also unfolds a protective effect in favor of the internally guided elastic band 12. In the front part 15, the elastic band 12 is freely accessible and serves to release the double loop 14. During the exercises, the double loop 14 is tightened by pulling on the elastic band 12 like a noose, so that it must first be loosened again when the exerciser wants to remove the exerciser 11 from the sports machine 18.

The elastic band 12 has an overall length, which depends on the length of the movements of the respective sport. For applications in tennis, for example, the unstretched length of the elastic band 12 is about 70 cm. In the course of the exercise, the elastic band 12 can be stretched to 300% of its unstretched length. The elastic band 12 is performed twice for safety reasons and is divided by means of shrink tubing 17 into several segments. This ensures that in case of a possible tearing of the elastic band 12 during an exercise only one of several segments breaks and thus only a small damage to humans and the environment arises. The elastic band 12 is guided on one side as a double loop 14 and looped on the other side by a snap hook 13. The two ends of the elastic band 12 are connected together by a knot. The snap hook 13 serves to connect the elastic band 12 to a webbing 20 or to a fixed device.

The webbing 20 is a textile tape, which is manufactured in two versions. One embodiment has two end loops 23 and serves to connect to a solid object that can be wrapped around, such as a post 24, a column or a grid. The second embodiment is referred to as a clamping band 25 and has an end loop 23 and a cylindrical end element 26 and serves to connect to a closable door 21 or to a closable window. The clamping band 25 is first performed in the open door 21 and then the door is closed, so that the clamping band 25 is clamped between door 21 and door frame 22 so that on one side of the door, the end loop 23 comes to rest and on the other Side the cylindrical end element 26. At the end loop 23 of the snap hook 13 is hooked. The cylindrical end member 26 on the other side of the door 21 prevents slippage of the clamping band 25 under the tensile forces of the exercise.

Claims (5)

The practitioner prepares for the exercises the double loop 14 of the training device 11 to the handle 19 of his sports equipment 18 and attaches the snap hook 13 to a webbing 20 or a clamping band 25 and this in turn to a solid object. For practicing the practitioner holds the handle 19 of his sports equipment 18 in his beating hand or in the case of a two-handed exercise in both hands, takes at sufficient distance to the fixed object the exercise position and performs movements such as tennis forehand, backhand or impact movement. Now, if these movements are carried out against the resistance of the elastic band 12, on the one hand, all muscles involved in the movement are trained and, on the other hand, the movement patterns practiced, which the exerciser would like to learn and perfect. By connecting the exerciser 11 to a sports equipment 18 known and familiar to the exerciser, he has a much better understanding of the movements and postures of his sports equipment 18. The exerciser sees the whole sports equipment in front of him and not only - as in the case of others Exercise equipment - the short handgrip of the respective exercise equipment. A potential instructor who guides the practitioner can better explain to the practitioner - visually supported - how the movement is to be performed correctly. Another advantage of the inventive training device 11 is the simplicity and cost manufacturability.
