Abstract

Embodiments disclose a training device and method for plantar core muscles. The training device includes a bottom board, a dragging rod and a strap. The bottom board has a front part and a rear part. The dragging rod is disposed at the front part and in a position related to that of a metatarsal bone of a human foot. The strap is disposed between the frond part and rear part of the bottom board to fasten around dorsum of the foot. When the metatarsal bone and the heel exerts forces upon the bottom board, the arch of the foot would normally bend to induce the contraction of the plantar core muscles. With the strap strapping the foot at the dorsum, the contraction of the plantar core muscles intensifies, while fulfilling the objective of the training.

Description

Planter core muscle group training device and training method

The present invention relates to a plantar core muscle group training device and a training method, in particular to the fact that the metatarsal bones and heel of the foot are applied downward to cause the arch of the foot to arch naturally to induce the support of the arch. The training device and training method for the required plantar core muscle group contraction.

In 2015, in the article "The foot core system: A new paradigm for understanding intrinsic foot muscle function" written by Patrick O Mckeon and others in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, it was proposed that the sole of the foot has a concept similar to the trunk core muscle group. When the arc and control are abnormal, it will cause the lower limbs to produce wrong compensation patterns, and then cause pain or injury to other joints and parts.

The foot muscles include internal muscles (responsible for stability, providing perception, internal movements) and external muscles (responsible for big movements). See http://savy203.pixnet.net/blog/post/195946155-%3C%E8%B6%B3%E7%9F%A5%E8%AD%98%3E-%E8%B6%B3%E6%A0 %B8%E5%BF%83%E8%A8%93%E7%B7%B4%E9%81%8B%E5%8B%95, the inner muscles include (1) abductor hallucis; (2) Flexor digitorum brevis; (3) abductor digitiminimi; (4) quadratus plantae; (5) lumbricals; (6) flexor (Flexor digitiminimi); (7) adductor hallucis oblique; (8) flexor hallucis brevis; (9) plantar interossei; ( 10) Dorsal interossei; (11) Extensor digitorum brevis.

Traditionally, towel-grabbing exercises are often used as the basis of foot training. However, because this exercise produces more toe bending movements, most of the muscles trained are actually external muscles.

In order to strengthen the inner muscles of the plantar, the training concept of short foot exercise is used clinically. The heel and toe metacarpal joints are concentrated inward through the toes immobile, so that the arch of the foot produces movements as training to improve Intrinsic muscles maintain the elasticity of the arch and the stability of the joints. However, short-foot exercises often have learning difficulties and the inability to perform this exercise training effectively. Often due to the lack of sufficient external prompts and goals, usually after learning the training method, often Because movement errors induce external muscle groups and produce compensation, the training effect is not good.

Based on the above-mentioned problem that the active plantar inner muscle group training often results in poor training effects due to incorrect force application, there is the Republic of China Patent No. 200611682 "Foot Arch Inducer", which is arranged on the base plate of a central carina Irregularly shaped and undulating three-dimensional pillars are laid on the floor or the ground with a plurality of substrates, thereby forming a undulating floor to stimulate the sole muscles of the human body and strengthen muscle training to achieve The effect of passive training of the inner muscles of the sole. However, the effect of passive training is often not as good as the effect of correct active muscle force training.

In this regard, the present invention provides a plantar core muscle group training device, hoping to achieve the effect of active training of the plantar inner muscle group through the training device of the present invention.
