Definitions

  • the invention refers to a tool, in particular for limb strengthening.
  • Weight lifting for example, is a very widespread activity.
  • the prior art techniques normally involve other parts of the human body apart from those for which the activity is specifically destined.
  • the spinal column is almost always involved in some measure.
  • the present invention provides a gymnastics tool which permits of exercising and thus of strengthening a single limb or all limbs through what can be termed as "natural" movements, without involving the upper part of the body.
  • Advantages of the present invention are its extreme simplicity and the many and varied movements which can be performed when using it.
  • 1 denotes a belt predisposed to be bound about the waist.
  • the belt 1 is equipped with a series of hooking organs 2 distributed symmetrically with respect to a median point.
  • the hooking organs 2 are presdisposed to receive hooking elements 4 fixed to the ends of long elements 3 which are at least in part elastically deformable.
  • each end of an element 3 can be fixed to any one of the hooking organs 2.
  • the fixing is performed in accordance with the kind of exercise to be done.
  • an element 3 might be used which is hooked with its ends to two hooking organs 2 one the same side of the belt 1, one frontally and one posteriorly.
  • a kind of elastically deformable closed ring will be formed which can be used very simply by hooking a foot through and in contact with the element 3, and then stretching the limb. The said stretching movement will be contrasted by the action of the elastic element 3.
  • the preceding depends on the total length at rest of the elastic element 3 being sufficiently small if proportioned to the length of the stretched limb and thus, in the example, less than double the distance between the hooking organs 2, the belt 1 and the sole of the foot in the stretched-limb configuration.
  • anchoring systems can be provided which permit a coupling to be made.
  • FIGS. 2a and 2b, 3a and 3b, 4a and 4b Some examples of use of the invention are schematically illustrated in figures 2a and 2b, 3a and 3b, 4a and 4b. In each of the three uses illustrated, a “rest” position, in the figures denoted with “a” and a stretched position, in the figures indicated by “b”, are shown.
  • FIG 5 a further example of use of the invention is shown, in which the elements 3 are used to contrast the running action of the user.
  • the tool may be used for strenthening all of the limbs, including the arms.
