OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención se refiere a una envoltura corporal con lastre removible, la cual ha sido concebida con el objetivo de obtener numerosas y notables ventajas en la práctica de la actividad deportiva.The present invention relates to a body wrap with removable ballast, which has been conceived in order to obtain numerous and notable advantages in the practice of sports activity.

El sistema de la presente invención consiste en una envoltura corporal dotada de unos medios para sostener de forma removible en el cuerpo del usuario unas piezas a modo de lastre. Preferiblemente, la envoltura corporal también dispone de un pulsímetro para el control sobre la frecuencia cardiaca, con lo que se obtiene un control preciso y personalizado sobre el consumo de energía y el agotamiento del organismo del usuario, por ejemplo a la hora de realizar deporte, lo cual mejora y facilita la forma de entrenar en comunidad.The system of the present invention consists of a body wrap provided with means for removably holding parts as ballast in the user's body. Preferably, the body wrap also has a heart rate monitor for controlling heart rate, thereby obtaining precise and personalized control over energy consumption and depletion of the user's body, for example when doing sports, which improves and facilitates the way of community training.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Con el propósito de aumentar la resistencia al movimiento del cuerpo humano a la hora de realizar una actividad física, se utilizan lastres sujetos al cuerpo en determinadas zonas (normalmente en muñecas y tobillos) de forma que hacen aumentar el peso a soportar en éstas. De esta manera, los músculos tienen que realizar un esfuerzo adicional que se transforma en un aumento del consumo de energía y un agotamiento del cuerpo más acelerado que en el entreno sin lastres.In order to increase the resistance to movement of the human body when performing a physical activity, weights are used subject to the body in certain areas (usually in wrists and ankles) so that they increase the weight to be supported in them. In this way, the muscles have to make an additional effort that transforms into an increase in energy consumption and a more rapid exhaustion of the body than in the training without ballasts.

Los lastres que se encuentran en el mercado están formados por una masa de material pesado (habitualmente arena) fijada a un instrumento de sujeción al cuerpo (basado en correas y/o vetas adherentes). Estos lastres no tienen la posibilidad de modificar su cantidad de material pesado. Si se desea cambiar el peso a soportar por la persona, es necesario disponer de otro lastre diferente con otra masa de material pesado diferente y su respectivo instrumento de sujeción al cuerpo, con el consiguiente desperdicio de material y tiempo de intercambio de lastre. The ballasts that are on the market are formed by a mass of heavy material (usually sand) attached to a body support instrument (based on belts and / or adherent streaks). These ballasts do not have the possibility of modifying their amount of heavy material. If it is desired to change the weight to be borne by the person, it is necessary to have another different ballast with another mass of different heavy material and its respective instrument of subjection to the body, with the consequent waste of material and ballast exchange time.

Por otra parte, es sabido que para el adecuado entreno del organismo humano en la práctica de actividad física, es conveniente que la frecuencia cardiaca se encuentre en un rango apropiado. Este rango depende de la edad y el sexo de la persona, el objetivo deseado (según si el entreno es aeróbico o anaeróbico es necesario trabajar a un rango de pulsaciones más alto o más bajo), etc. Es por ello que la utilización de un monitor de frecuencia cardiaca o pulsímetro es una herramienta que ayuda a mejorar el rendimiento del ejercicio físico, al poder controlar la intensidad del ejercicio y proporcionar información en los cambios que se producen en el sistema cardiovascular durante el esfuerzo.On the other hand, it is known that for the proper training of the human organism in the practice of physical activity, it is convenient that the heart rate is in an appropriate range. This range depends on the age and sex of the person, the desired objective (depending on whether the training is aerobic or anaerobic it is necessary to work at a higher or lower range of pulsations), etc. That is why the use of a heart rate monitor or heart rate monitor is a tool that helps to improve the performance of physical exercise, being able to control the intensity of the exercise and provide information on the changes that occur in the cardiovascular system during the effort .

Consecuentemente sería deseable un sistema que combine un instrumento de sujeción al cuerpo que permita seleccionar la cantidad de peso a sostener de forma rápida y cómoda para así agilizar la selección del peso y evitar disponer de un instrumento de sujeción al cuerpo por cada peso que se desee utilizar.Consequently, a system that combines a body support instrument that allows selecting the amount of weight to be held quickly and conveniently to expedite the selection of weight and avoid having a body support instrument for each desired weight would be desirable. use.
